The Role
You will report to the CEO and partner with the commercial and product leadership teams.

  • Lead analysis of customer unit economics, retention, and lifetime value to inform commercial strategy
  • Work with leadership on scenario planning, fundraising preparation, and investor communication

  • ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualification
  • Proven experience in a scaling technology or SaaS business, ideally in a finance leadership role
  • Strong grasp of SaaS metrics, subscription economics, and growth-stage financial management
  • Comfortable with strategic finance-comfortable advising on business decisions, not just reporting results
  • Track record managing small teams and building finance processes from the ground up
