About Novabook
Novabook is an AI-native accounting firm founded by Stephen Wilks & Lukas Feddern. Our aim is to make the financial processes of starting, running and selling a business in the UK easier. We split our team in half, using Software & AI to automate accounting whilst also providing the best service in the world to young & growing startups.
We are a small, rapidly growing team of 50 people at the moment (18 people in the engineering & product team). After launching in May 2024, we already have 1000+ clients, £3M ARR and are growing quickly, this is an opportunity to join the ride at an early stage. We have raised £11.5M in funding to build and scale Novabook.
What technological problems are we solving?
Software that accounting firms currently run on is extremely outdated & disjointed. This results in a lot of manual work which is costly and error prone. We are building a suite of integrated products to automate 90% of the workflow within accounting firms. We are rapidly scaling our engineering team to facilitate this build out across workflow, payments, open banking, payroll & automated bookkeeping domains.
Culture
We are well-funded but the hardest period of a start-up is always the first couple of years, when the team is small, and you are heavily relied on personally. But this also exposes you to the most interesting period of a company’s lifecycle and also the period where you can learn the most & earn the most material rewards. You won’t be expected to work evenings & weekends, but you will be expected to work hard when on the job.
About the role
We’re hiring Startup Operations Graduates across several teams as we scale as an AI-native company on an ambitious unicorn journey. We have graduate roles open that incorporate two core functions:
- Operations: Supporting how the business runs and scales day to day
- Accounting: Helping build strong financial foundations from early stage
You’ll start off building a core understanding of our operations, working on real problems and contributing directly to Novabook. As you learn and progress you’ll gain broad exposure to how a modern startup operates and how different teams work together in an AI-first environment.
You’ll work closely with founders who have previously built and scaled a technology company, learning directly from experienced operators and getting hands-on experience early in your career. This is a fast-paced, high-ownership environment designed for graduates who want responsibility, steep learning, and the chance to grow alongside the company.
What we’re looking for in you
- Recent graduate or expecting to graduate soon.
- No prior work experience required.
- Strong academic background. STEM encouraged but not required.
