ABOUT NEXGEN CLOUD:

NexGen Cloud is the company behind Hyperstack, a full-stack AI cloud serving tens of thousands of customers from AI researchers to enterprises running the world's most compute-intensive workloads. We deliver on-demand and private GPU infrastructure to teams who treat performance as a requirement, not a feature. We're a tight-knit, fast-moving team working at the cutting edge of AI cloud infrastructure. We practice what we preach, equipping our people with AI at every level so we can solve harder problems, ship faster, and keep raising the bar for what enterprise GPU infrastructure looks like.

THE ROLE:

This role exists because strong financial insight is critical to supporting smart, timely decision-making as NexGen Cloud continues to scale — expanding our customer base, operations, and product capabilities. You'll have direct ownership of key financial planning and analysis processes, helping leadership understand performance, identify opportunities, and make informed decisions about where to invest. This is a role for someone who enjoys working closely with the business, analysing complex data, and translating numbers into meaningful insights that influence strategy and outcomes.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:

• Own key financial planning and analysis processes — partnering with teams across the business to support budgeting, forecasting, and long-range financial planning
• Build and maintain financial models that support strategic decision-making and business growth planning
• Analyse company performance against budgets and forecasts, identifying key drivers and explaining variances clearly to leadership
• Prepare concise financial reporting for leadership teams, translating data into actionable insights that drive decisions
• Support monthly and quarterly financial close processes from an FP&A perspective, and assist with scenario modelling and investment analysis for strategic initiatives
• Identify trends, risks, and opportunities across the business as the company scales
• Assist with financial materials for board meetings, investor presentations, and financing discussions

ABOUT YOU:

We're more interested in how you think and work than in a perfect CV. You'll likely bring a combination of the following:

• 2–5 years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, consulting, or a similar analytical role
• Strong financial modelling capability in Excel or Google Sheets
• Experience working with large datasets and financial performance metrics
• Ability to translate financial analysis into clear insights for non-finance stakeholders
• Proactive mindset with a willingness to take ownership — strong attention to detail combined with strategic thinking
• Clear communication and presentation skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across functions

Nice to Have:

• Experience in high-growth, startup, or scale-up environments
• Exposure to SaaS, cloud, or technology companies
• Familiarity with fundraising processes, capital structure, or strategic finance
• Experience supporting investor reporting or board presentations
• Exposure to BI tools or financial systems such as NetSuite

WHAT WE OFFER:

• Competitive salary and annual discretionary bonus scheme
• 25 days of holiday, plus public holidays
• Flexible working arrangements (remote or hybrid, depending on role and location)
• Real ownership and autonomy, with the trust to take initiative and experiment
• The opportunity to make a visible, meaningful impact as we scale
• Clear career progression and growth opportunities in a fast-growing company
• A collaborative, international culture built on trust, transparency, and ownership
• The chance to help shape NexGen Cloud's team, culture, and future alongside ambitious, mission-driven colleagues
