I'm working with a UK-headquartered cloud compute business in the AI infrastructure space to find their next Finance Manager.
They're at the stage where finance has to grow up fast. New business sectors coming online, a group structure spanning multiple jurisdictions, funding rounds to reflect in the cap table, and a reporting stack that's about to move off Xero onto something more serious.
They have recently been through their first Audit and have sailed though with no adjustments, it is a really exciting time to be joining the business. You will have great exposure to all seniorities internally, there are around 50 people in the business.
This sits directly under the Finance Director, with no direct reports, so it's a genuine hands-on ownership role rather than a management one.
What you'd own:
▸ Group and entity reporting, and the migration to a new platform
▸ Budgets, KPIs, variance analysis and rolling forecasts, built from scratch where there's nothing today
▸ Departmental budgets end to end, including variance reviews with budget holders by project and customer
▸ A weekly cash flow planner that people actually use, plus banking migrations, FX planning and new facilities
▸ Cross-border entity management: keeping dormant entities compliant, supporting formal closures in various locations, and keeping KYC/AML documentation permanently data-room ready
What they're looking for:
▸ A solid grip on month-end, forecasting and financial reporting
▸ Strong Google Sheets and Xero
▸ Experience implementing systems, and a track record of spotting and driving process improvement
▸ Comfortable with AI tools (Claude in particular)
▸ Confident working independently and owning outcomes, with the appetite to challenge existing processes rather than just inherit them
▸Experience of working in a scaling and growing business
Experience in a small team, an AI or tech business, or any fast-scaling environment will serve you well here.
Location: Remote with travel to London and the South Coast twice a month, all travel expensed.
