We would prefer a candidate with extensive, high-quality legal accounts experience over a qualified accountant with no meaningful experience of solicitors' client accounts. Legal Aid experience is a significant advantage but should not be treated as an absolute requirement. Similarly, LEAP and Xero experience are advantageous but should not exclude an otherwise excellent candidate. Working Monday to Friday, 9am - 5pm, with an hour for lunch.

We're building the next generation of employee benefits infrastructure. At the company, we help global teams design, manage, and scale benefits that actually work for their people by using AI, across flex allowances, benefits, insurance, recognition, and wellbeing, all in one intelligent platform. the company is backed by leading investors such as YCombinator, 6Degrees Capital, Haatch, Portage, and more, known for backing leading companies such as Deel, Rippling, Airbnb, Coinbase, Dropbox, and most recently was awarded a place in the UK's top 100 startups for 2026. As Financial Controller at the company, you'll own the financial engine of the business - everything from the cash in the bank to the numbers our board and investors use to make decisions runs through you. You'll run the monthly close, the full revenue cycle, the compliance calendar across two jurisdictions, and our treasury position, and you'll decide how all of it gets built, systemised, and automated. This is a hands-on, high-autonomy role with a direct line to leadership. You won't be managing a process someone else designed - you'll be deciding what good looks like across revenue, cash, compliance, and reporting, then making it happen. You'll work closely with the CEO, the board, our investors, and our outsourced bookkeeping, audit, and tax partners, holding all of it to a standard that matches the product we've built. We're FCA-regulated and YCombinator-backed, having raised $11m to date, and we give global employers a single place to design, deliver, and manage benefits across 160+ countries and 70+ languages - which means the finance function behind the product has to be just as sharp as the product itself. We're entering our next phase of growth, with an ambitious revenue trajectory and an expanding international footprint, and this role sits at the centre of it. • Owning the monthly close on a fixed timetable - management accounts, balance sheet integrity, accruals, prepayments, and the revenue and cost reconciliations that sit behind them, • Writing the commentary that explains what's actually happened in the business, not just what the numbers say, • Producing the monthly investor reporting pack and the financial sections of board materials - ARR and revenue analysis, cash and runway, burn efficiency, unit economics, cohort and retention metrics, and budget versus actual, • Owning the full revenue cycle - invoicing, collections, aged debt, and revenue recognition across a multi-currency, multi-contract subscription base, • Leading the rollout of automated billing and revenue recognition tooling, moving us from manual tracking to a system that scales without adding headcount, • Managing our two legal entities - a US TopCo and a UK operating company - including statutory accounts, audit preparation, intercompany accounting, transfer pricing mechanics, and FX exposure between them, • Owning the compliance calendar end to end across both jurisdictions - UK VAT returns, corporation tax, US federal and state filings, sales tax where applicable, and payroll taxes, • Supporting our FCA regulatory reporting obligations and the financial controls that sit behind them, • Running monthly payroll across jurisdictions, pension and benefits administration, employee expenses, and the finance side of onboarding and offboarding, • Owning the cash position and treasury strategy - cash flow forecasting, working capital, FX management, and structuring how we hold company funds to earn a sensible return without taking risk we shouldn’t, • Managing our outsourced bookkeeping, accounting, and tax partners - holding them to deadlines and quality, and pulling work in-house where doing so makes us faster, • Owning the finance tech stack and having a strong opinion on it, actively replacing manual work with automation and AI-assisted workflows across reconciliations, invoice processing, variance analysis, and reporting drafts, • Leveraging AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT to speed up your own work and build the systems that let finance scale without adding headcount, • Acting as the financial conscience of the business, with a direct line to the founders and a real say in how we grow, • Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA), or qualified by experience with a track record that stands up to scrutiny, • Genuine ownership of a monthly close cycle and management reporting pack, start to finish, • Strong technical grounding in revenue recognition, accruals accounting, and balance sheet control, • Comfortable with tax and compliance across VAT, corporation tax, and payroll, ideally spanning both the UK and US, • AI-native in your approach - you already use AI tools in your day-to-day work and can talk specifically about what you've automated and what it saved you, • Exceptional attention to detail, alongside the judgement to know when precision matters and when speed does, • A clear communicator - you can explain a number to a non-finance audience without patronising them or losing them, • Ideally, SaaS or subscription business experience, particularly ARR reporting and deferred revenue, and familiarity with modern billing infrastructure like Xero or Stripe, • Comfort with SQL, Python, or low-code automation tools is a bonus, not a requirement, but it will make your life here significantly easier Being Financial Controller at the company is not a maintenance role. You'll be building the finance function as you run it - choosing the systems, designing the controls, and deciding how billing, revenue recognition, and reporting should work as we scale into new markets and currencies. That's not a caveat; it's the role. Some weeks will be genuinely rewarding - a reporting pack you built gives the board real clarity, a manual process you automated saves the team hours every month, a treasury decision you made puts real value on the table.

Wifinity was founded in 2007 to solve a problem—our armed forces were struggling with reliable connectivity. While living in barracks, often in remote locations, ordering a landline and booking in an engineer just wasn’t an option. And that problem isn’t exclusive to the military, either. Students living in University accommodation, families visiting holiday resorts, or living in shared accommodation and retirement communities. Conventional home broadband doesn’t always work for them. Wifinity is different. We offer the same benefits as traditional broadband, such as super-fast speeds, WiFi, and secure and private networks, but none of the downsides. We even offer Pay As You Go and flexible contracts, so customers only pay for what they need without hefty penalties or long contract terms. We take the complexity out of connectivity. We are looking for a Senior FP&A Manager to own financial planning and analysis for the Group. This is a high-impact, hands-on role with visibility to the executive team, board, investor and lenders. You will own the annual budget, reforecast and rolling forecast cycles, long-range planning, the models behind major capital and commercial decisions, and the analysis and commentary that help senior stakeholders understand performance and choose between options. The role reports to the Commercial Finance Director, has one direct report, a Commercial Finance Analyst, and sits alongside financial control and business partnering. You will build and own models yourself, while improving planning discipline across finance and the business and helping close the gap between senior stakeholder expectations and current systems, data and process maturity. The role is built around five priorities.. • Own the annual budget process end-to-end, including the timetable, templates, assumptions, budget holder challenge and consolidation, building plans from operational drivers rather than extrapolation., • Own the reforecast and rolling forecast cycles for P&L, cash flow, working capital and capex, including project phasing, pipeline assumptions, cash low points and risks and opportunities., • Own the operational long-range model, including scenario, sensitivity and downside cases used to test funding requirements, keeping it robust, documented and usable by others., • Drive forecast accuracy as a discipline, tracking variances back to their causes and tightening the assumptions, and the underlying data, that repeatedly prove unreliable., • Produce analysis that explains performance, not just reports it, linking variance, margin, mix and operational drivers to a clear view of what changed, why it matters and action required., • Own the group KPI framework and the unit economics beneath it, keeping the set tiered, mutually exclusive and genuinely decision-useful., • Support post-acquisition activity, including the financial integration of acquired businesses into group planning and reporting, where definitions, data structures and reporting conventions will differ from our own., • Provide ad hoc analysis for commercial, operational and corporate decisions, often at short notice and from partial information, setting out assumptions, confidence level and what would need to be true to change the answer., • Own the forward-looking elements of monthly reporting and the planning and performance content within board and investor packs, ensuring output is accurate, consistent and presented to an infrastructure investor standard., • Write clear, honest commentary that gives senior stakeholders a defensible view of where performance is heading, the basis of the numbers and the limitations in the data, using simple financial storytelling for non-finance audiences., • Support any lending requirements, including covenant forecasting and testing, headroom analysis, liquidity monitoring and drawdown scenarios., • Respond to investor and board questions with speed and confidence, including unplanned scenario questions, and present forecasts, scenarios and performance messages clearly., • Act as the FP&A voice in the planned finance systems migration from Access to a new ERP, defining planning, reporting and data requirements and testing that they are met., • Redevelop and maintain the planning environment, including a rebuild in Adaptive, so that forecasting is faster, better controlled and less dependent on manual manipulation., • Work with finance and operational data owners to improve data integrity, definitions and lineage, identifying where information does not reconcile and proposing resolution., • Automate recurring reporting and build dashboards, applying analytics and AI tooling pragmatically where it improves quality, speed or insight., • Reduce key person risk by documenting models, standardising templates and making the planning process repeatable., • Manage, coach and develop a Commercial Finance Analyst, setting analytical standards and creating the space for that person to grow., • Act as a trusted partner to the executive team and to leaders across sales, marketing, delivery, network operations and transformation., • Coordinate and challenge inputs from finance business partners, commercial pricing and project control so that group plans are consistent and credible., • Raise financial literacy across the business, helping budget holders understand the drivers behind their numbers, drive their forecasts and translate finance into operational actions.
