About Us \n TPH Global is one of the UK's leading Accounting SaaS product and Payroll service providers for the film and TV industries. We work globally with leading brands, such as Netflix, Marvel, Disney and the BBC, and the team is driven by delivering quality and value to these clients, with a high level of service. \n With offices in London and Australia, we continue to grow and expand our team. We work in a flexible hybrid model, based at our Twickenham office. \n We're searching for a Head of Operations (UK) to take ownership of the day-to-day running of TPH's UK business. Reporting to the Group CEO (with a secondary line to the Group Head of Legal), you'll turn Group priorities into local delivery, hold payroll, customer success, finance operations and commercial activity together, and give our Australian leadership team clear, reliable visibility of how the UK is performing. \n The Role \n This is a hands-on leadership role in an established SME, not one run at arm's length through layers of management. The immediate priority is operational control, service reliability, client retention and organisational effectiveness. Growth matters, but it's the outcome of a well-run operation, not the immediate mandate. \n Expect to move constantly between leadership, analysis, problem-solving and doing the work yourself, taking personal ownership of issues from the moment they surface through to resolution. We’re hiring someone who creates clarity and momentum without adding process for its own sake, and who wants to build the operating model rather than just run one someone else designed. \n We’ll work closely together for the first 90 days, on purpose: high visibility so Australian leadership can trust what's happening in the UK during a genuine operational reset, and close support so nobody's finding their feet alone. From there, this becomes a genuinely high-autonomy role. You'll run the UK business with minimal day-to-day intervention, and sound judgement about what needs escalating to the Group Leadership and what doesn't. \n We expect this role will see you: \n\n • Translate Group priorities into a single UK operating plan and own the weekly cadence beneath it, so decisions get implemented, not just discussed, and cross-functional issues get resolved at UK level instead of defaulting upward.\n, • Act as the senior day-to-day operational face of TPH in the UK, giving Australian leadership genuine, decision-useful visibility through a concise scorecard covering service delivery, clients, people, finance and commercial activity, built to drive action and accountability, not administration.\n, • Manage the Payroll Manager and hold accountability for overall payroll service performance, including reliability, timeliness, accuracy and capacity, driving efficiency without compromising accuracy, security or client experience. The Payroll Manager retains ownership of processing and technical delivery.\n, • Oversee UK Customer Success across the full post-sale lifecycle, from onboarding through to retention, making sure recurring issues get traced to root cause, not just closed ticket by ticket.\n, • Manage the UK relationship-management function and (once appointed) the Business Development Manager, supporting real commercial rhythm and CRM discipline in place and resolving the handover failures that happen between sales, onboarding and service delivery.\n, • Hold accountability for local finance operations running reliably, including billing, collections and month-end, implementing the Group CFO's financial controls and maintaining the operational risk register alongside the Information Security Officer and Group Head of Legal. Day-to-day execution sits with the Payroll Manager and Senior Management Accountant.\n\n To be effective, we believe you'll need: \n\n • A strong track record in a senior operational role in an SME, scale-up or founder-led business, equally comfortable in strategy and in the detail.\n, • A track record of taking ownership of operational problems through to completion, not just coordinating activity around them.\n, • Experience creating visibility and reporting for senior or remote leadership, including managing up and working across time zones.\n, • Experience managing service delivery across multiple functions in a deadline-critical or client-service environment.\n, • Experience line-managing and lifting the performance of a small, multi-functional team.\n, • Sound commercial judgement, enabling you to build lightweight cadence, KPIs and controls without importing large-company bureaucracy.\n, • A strong track record matters more here than formal qualifications, though relevant tertiary education and familiarity with a structured operating system (EOS/Traction or similar) would both be a plus.\n\n It would be a real bonus if you also had: \n\n • Experience in payroll, payments, workforce services or another deadline-critical service environment.\n, • Experience running a UK subsidiary or country operation reporting to an overseas parent.\n\n You'll take a genuinely central role in a growing, global business, with real autonomy once trust is established and a fractional CFO and Group Head of Legal as functional partners. \n If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now via the link, including a short note introducing yourself to Rebecca, and we'll be in touch. \n No recruiters, thanks.

This is a key management appointment within a growing law firm and the successful candidate will be expected to take responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the department, financial controls, regulatory compliance and the development of the accounts team. The role is particularly suited to an experienced Legal Accounts Manager, Legal Cashier, or existing Head of Accounts who has practical experience of working within a regulated solicitors' practice. Candidates should have substantial practical experience of legal accounts within a solicitors' firm. This is not a general accounts role and candidates whose experience is solely within commercial or general accountancy, without meaningful legal accounts experience, are unlikely to be suitable. Head of Accounts/Legal Accounts Manager Experience: Essential: Previous substantial experience working within a solicitors' or law firm's Accounts Department. Strong practical knowledge and understanding of the SRA Accounts Rules. Hands-on experience of both client account and office account procedures. Experience of client and office account bank reconciliations. Experience maintaining and reviewing client ledgers and matter balances. Experience dealing with client money, transfers, receipts, payments and financial controls. Experience of legal billing and allocation of monies. Experience of VAT and payroll.

Experience of Legal Aid audits and contract compliance. Experience preparing information for an external accountant's report. Experience of improving accounts procedures, controls and reporting. Systems Experience: The firm currently uses LEAP as its case management and legal accounts system and Xero for office accounting. Experience of LEAP would be advantageous. Experience of Xero would be advantageous. Experience with another established legal accounts/case management system will be considered where the candidate has strong underlying legal accounts knowledge. The ability to learn new systems is more important than having used a particular software package. A formal accountancy qualification is not essential. 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. Salary is to be agreed depending on experience. TPBN1_UKTJ

We're building the future of healthcare by giving every clinician the earth's finest AI Care Partner. Our platform has absorbed the administrative chaos of 175 million patient visits and supported 67 million clinical hours. Today, we support 2.8 million patient sessions a week across 190+ countries, in 110 languages and over 200 specialties. Healthcare systems are failing us; clinicians spend more time on documentation than on patients, and the human connection that makes medicine worth practicing is eroding. Our mission is simple: double the world’s capacity for care and strengthen the human connection at its heart. We found product-market fit with a freemium medical scribe that clinicians love. Now, we're expanding. Every task a clinician hands to Heidi is a patient who feels more attended to, a health system unclogged, and a clinician who gets to be a clinician again. We’ve grown annual recurring revenue from $1 million to $50 million in two years. To go further, we’ve secured US$340 million: a $100 million Series C led by Blackbird, with Phoenix Court, Point72 Private Investments and Headline, alongside a $240 million growth investment led by General Catalyst’s Customer Value Fund. Heidi's UK and Europe business is growing faster than the finance scaffolding underneath it. Central finance across Sydney, Melbourne and Manila runs month-end close, core accounting and day-to-day operations, but the region needs someone on the ground who owns the accuracy of its numbers and sits close enough to the commercial team to shape decisions before they get made. Today, regional leaders wait on Australian hours for answers about their own P&L. You'll end that. The role has two halves and both carry equal weight. You'll own regional financial control and compliance: the integrity of the balance sheet, the accuracy of management reporting and forecasts, cash, strong local controls, and statutory obligations across Companies House, HMRC and VAT, directed through external advisers. You'll also be a hands-on business partner to UK and Europe leadership, Sales and Customer Success, owning the P&L narrative, bringing a commercial view to pricing, deal terms and customer economics, and making sure teams see the financial consequence of the choices they make. You'll report to the Group Financial Controller with a dotted line to FP&A. Own the integrity of the UK&Europe balance sheet, with reconciliations that stay current, reviewed and explainable Own the accuracy of the UK&Europe monthly group reporting and management accounts with variance commentary that explains movements Be the single point of contact for group finance on anything UK&Europe: queries, adjustments, restatements, consolidation-level questions Own the UK&Europe compliance calendar (Companies House, HMRC, VAT) by directing external accountants and advisers Own the adviser relationships (accounting, tax, audit), keeping work well scoped, reviewed and connected back to Heidi's internal finance standards Build an early-warning process so compliance risk is caught and escalated well before it threatens trading status Be the accountable owner if something in the compliance chain breaks down Be the day-to-day finance partner to UK&Europe leadership, owning the regional P&L narrative, budget vs actual and the "why" behind the numbers Bring a commercial lens to pricing, deal terms and customer economics, flagging risk and opportunity early Translate regional performance into clear, decision-ready input for FP&A and company leadership Give UK&Europe business leaders a reliable, self-serve view of their numbers, so decisions stop waiting on Australian hours Feed central finance the regional inputs it needs at close: accrual estimates, revenue and spend context, then review and sign off on the UK&Europe result Partner with Sales and Customer Success to resolve aged and disputed balances and unblock stuck revenue Own the commercial view of collection risk: which accounts, why, and what it means for cash, and feed it into forecasting Drive down UK&Europe DSO by fixing the upstream causes (contracting, disputes, process), not by chasing invoices Build the operating rhythm that turns UK&Europe finance from reactive support into a reliable performance framework: clear KPIs, owners, review cadences and escalation paths Partner with budget owners on spend decisions before they are made, rather than policing them after the fact Strengthen financial controls across spend, approvals, vendor onboarding, card usage, subscriptions and commercial commitments, while keeping the process pragmatic for a fast-moving region Review regional AP and card activity, including prompt removal of leaver access and cards, and elevate anomalies to central finance operations Partner with external accountants, tax advisers, compliance providers and other vendors, making sure work is well-scoped, reviewed and connected back to Heidi’s internal finance standards Use FinOps-style discipline to connect spend, usage and outcomes, especially across tooling, GTM systems, implementation costs and region-specific operating expenses Create simple documentation and control checks so the region can scale without relying on informal knowledge or one-off fixes Strong commercial and financial acumen — comfortable moving between P&L narrative, deal economics and cash impact Experience business partnering with Sales, Customer Success or regional leadership in a growth business Track record improving collections or DSO by fixing root causes, not just process Experience owning spend or expense controls in a way that supports the business rather than only governing it Comfortable directing (not necessarily performing) statutory compliance and VAT work through external advisers High degree of autonomy and ownership in a small, remote-first global finance team Clear, confident communicator — able to hold your own with commercial leaders and external advisers alike Experience in a multi-entity or multi-currency business Experience in a high-growth SaaS or technology company Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent) Exposure to Companies House, HMRC and Irish Revenue processes Experience with Campfire, Airwallex or similar modern finance tooling Build for the next decade, not next quarter. Our targets are outrageous on purpose. The world's health doesn't have the luxury of incrementalism. Lead, don't wait. We treat tomorrow's problems today. Sometimes we build what's needed before it's wanted, and we're fine with that. Follow the evidence. Trust the patient. We pursue truth relentlessly. But when the subjective and objective disagree, we treat the patient, not the numbers. Ego is a comorbidity we can't afford. Own the outcome. Everyone here carries the company. Raise problems with solutions, solve them end-to-end, and never be a bystander. Ship, measure, go again. A button today, a workflow tomorrow. More iterations beat better planning. We're precise at pace, not reckless. Live in clinicians' reality. Not the ideal workflow, the twenty-patients-before-lunch actual one. We build for exhausted humans, and we'd better be decent ones while we do it. You'll join a team focused on real-world impact over imaginary valuations and glossy PR. We live and breathe the challenges of modern health systems, and are laser-focused on exacting the change we'd like to see. We're medicos, engineers, builders, and designers who've felt the moral and practical toll of what non-care feels like. True A-players progress extremely fast here. The nature of the scale-up game is demanding, but we value sustainable performance and mental health. You're trusted to perform, and you set your schedule. We operate on outcomes > inputs, not process theatre. We all take the bins out, metaphorically and literally. Building what we're building isn't always easy. But we didn't choose easy, we chose to build something that actually matters. We hold ourselves to a higher standard because healthcare demands it. If you join Heidi, you recognise that the deeper question isn't whether AI can solve the global healthcare crisis, but whose hands will shape it. The work is hard, but you will trust and admire the people you work beside, and rest easy knowing you're doing the defining work of your career. We offer comprehensive private medical and dental cover through Bupa, 24/7 mental health, coaching and wellbeing support through Sonder, a £100/month Healthy Heidi's wellness stipend, a £500 home office budget, a £700 annual learning and development budget, 26 weeks paid primary parental leave and 18 weeks paid secondary parental leave, fertility support up to £7,000, up to four weeks of work from anywhere per year, Recharge Days after major milestones and busy periods, 10 days per year of clinical leave for eligible clinical roles, and a hybrid working environment with 3 days in the office. We chose to open-source our benefits hub, if you care to take a peek. #J-18808-Ljbffr

Our mission is to make the world more digitally secure. The Role TryHackMe runs a lean, high-performance finance team, and we're looking for a Financial Controller to own the Group's actuals and build the processes that let us keep scaling without adding headcount. This is a build-and-solve role, not plug-and-play. Running the close and the weekly finance tasks is the baseline. The real job is spotting what the business will need next, redesigning processes before they break, and executing fast. We work AI-first across processes, reviews, reconciliations and reporting, so you'll be building workflows in Claude, not just Excel. It's critical that you agree with our culture and way of working, as TryHackMe is not for everyone, so make sure to read this article before applying. You'll report directly into the Head of Finance, manage one Accountant who runs FinOps, and work closely with FP&A, People, Analytics, RevOps, Sales, CS and the SLT. • Month-end & Reporting: Own and evolve the close and key processes like revenue recognition, deferred revenue and accrued liabilities. Own P&L, balance sheet and cashflow accuracy and analysis, plus supporting schedules such as BS reconciliations.

Drive cross-functional data integrity across Stripe, PayPal and Tableau/Hex., • Controls & Audit: Own financial controls and the annual audit end to end, from planning through fieldwork to reporting, working directly with our auditors with no material adjustments., • Corporation Tax & R&D: Manage annual CT (including quarterly instalments) and the R&D claim with external advisers. Coordinate technical leads, handle HMRC enquiries and reconcile the CT balance to the HMRC account., • Indirect Tax: Own UK VAT quarterly returns, international VAT and US sales tax, including registrations, monthly Stripe Tax files to our outsourced provider, review and approval of returns across 30+ jurisdictions, tracking payments, and periodic true-ups of the accrued liability., • Statutory & Company Admin: Handle Companies House filings and registered-office post, ONS surveys, dividend vouchers, withholding-tax and residency certificates for customers, and the US entity's compliance with its advisers., • Want a plug-and-play role where the close is the whole job, • Are happy fixing the same reconciling items every month rather than killing the root cause, • Need to be chased, or look for someone else to blame when things slip, • Bring open questions rather than recommendations, • Would rather stay in Excel than build and run workflows in tools like Claude, • Rely on others to catch errors in your work, • Need clear structure and direction, or struggle to push back and manage upward, • Can't explain finance simply to founders and non-finance teams, • Fully qualified accountant (ACA preferred; ACCA or CIMA considered) with 2+ years PQE, • 5+ years of progressive accounting and finance experience, ideally across both practice and industry, • Startup/scale-up experience in a fast-paced, constantly changing environment, • Experience with high-volume B2C subscription and/or B2B SaaS (both is a strong plus), • A strong foundation in accounting principles and best practice, • Strong Excel and light modelling skills, • Demonstrable AI use in finance work: comfortable building and running workflows in tools like Claude, • Data analytics skills, • Payment processor experience (Stripe, PayPal), • 100% Remote - work from wherever you do your best work., • Personal Development - a £2,500 training budget for certifications and more., • Company Retreat - a yearly company retreat, fully paid for., • Lunch on us - we cover your lunch order at our regular virtual company lunches., • Health Insurance - if you're based in a country without public healthcare., • Enhanced Maternity & Paternity - an enhanced package on top of statutory pay., • 401k / Pension - we make it easy to save for retirement., • Stage 1 (30m): Screening call with the recruitment team, • Stage 2 (1hr): Interview with Head of Finance, • Stage 3 (30m): Final interview with our Founder TryHackMe takes the pain out of learning and teaching cyber security. Our platform makes it a comfortable experience to learn by designing prebuilt courses that include virtual machines (VM) hosted in the cloud and ready to be deployed. This avoids the hassle of downloading and configuring VMs. Our platform is perfect for CTFs, Workshops, Assessments, or Training.

Imagine being part of a fast and exciting brand experience agency whose clients include specialists in new technology, creators of some of the most stunning electric vehicles on the planet, financial institutions, and global leaders in pharmaceutical solutions. As an agency, we elevate these brands and make them heard through immersive and memorable virtual and face 2 face experiences. As a people-first business, we encourage ambition, support and reward. We’re always listening and open to your ideas, just as we do with our clients. Our name? It’s Strata, an agency on a mission to be the very best. This means we always want to hear from the very best creative and intelligent souls who genuinely believe that every moment matters. The Group Treasury & Cashflow Manager will strengthen and further develop Strata’s Group-wide approach to treasury, cashflow visibility and liquidity planning. Working across all seven operating companies - Strata Create, Wonderland, Element, On Event Production Co., Trinity Event Solutions, Collider and Sherbet - together with the holding company and any entity operating outside the UK, the role will provide a clear, forward-looking view of cash, funding requirements and financial commitments to support confident commercial decision-making. Our work is project-based, with costs, deposits, supplier prepayments, freelance crew, venue commitments and staged client billing often moving at different speeds, in different currencies, across seven businesses. Major productions can create material short-term movements in Group cash, so this role brings structure, consistency and insight to the cashflow view, ensuring treasury supports growth, operational discipline and informed decision-making. The role reports to the Group CFO, works closely with the Group COO, and is the Group's single point of contact for banks, facility providers and our investors on all matters of liquidity, covenant and cash. It works collaboratively with finance leads in each operating company, sharing standards, systems and best practice. This is a build role - the model, the policy and the banking relationships are owned from day one. • Build and run a rolling 13-week direct cashflow forecast at Group and operating company level, refreshed weekly, • Own the medium-term view - 12-month (rolling) cashflow bridged to budget and forecast, • Forecast at project level for major productions, so cash exposure is visible before the Group commits, not after, • Track forecast accuracy, explain variances and improve the model each cycle, • Set the standard for operating company forecast submissions and challenge them where they do not hold up, • Manage day-to-day Group liquidity and headroom, with a known cash position across every account every morning, • Own bank and facility relationships, drawdowns and account structure, • Assess and implement cash pooling or sweeping where the entity structure allows, • Maintain and stress-test covenant headroom, and produce covenant compliance reporting to the required calendar, • Manage all investor interest payments (facility, loan note & other related), • Own the payment run, authorisation matrix and banking controls across all entities, • Drive working capital performance across the Group: debtor days, creditor terms, WIP, unbilled revenue, deposit and staged-payment discipline, • Set and monitor working capital targets by operating company with the Group CFO and COO, • Work with commercial and finance leads to fix causes rather than chase symptoms - billing milestones that do not match delivery, contracts signed on terms we cannot fund, purchase orders raised without cash cover, • Support debtor escalation with evidence, working alongside account leads, • Identify and manage foreign currency exposure on international projects and supplier commitments, • Recommend and execute a hedging policy that is proportionate rather than exotic, • Manage intercompany funding, balances and settlement, keeping positions clean and documented, • Own counterparty and payment fraud controls, • Work with the Group CFO and external advisers on the treasury implications of entity structure, including entities operating outside the UK, • Produce the weekly cash report to the executive and the treasury pack for Board and investor reporting, • Draft, implement and maintain the Group treasury policy and delegated authority framework, • Support funding events, refinancing and transaction-related cash reporting, • Provide cash and funding input to acquisition activity and integration planning, • Own the treasury toolset, assessing whether current systems are fit for a group of this scale and leading selection and implementation if they are not, • Automate the manual - consolidating seven spreadsheets by hand is not a long-term answer, • Define, document and maintain treasury processes and frameworks, scaling them as the business grows, • Partner closely with operating company finance leads, Managing Directors and commercial teams, • Build treasury literacy across the Group so cash discipline is understood at brief stage, not at invoice stage, • Contribute to Group-wide procurement, banking and supplier consolidation initiatives, • Work within Group operating disciplines: (Tool TBA) for project budgeting, Monday.com for project management and resourcing, CRM for opportunity, • Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, ICAEW)/ACT qualified or equivalent treasury experience at scale., • Proven ownership of cashflow forecasting in a multi-entity group - a 13-week forecast built from scratch, not merely maintained, • Strong working capital track record, with clear evidence of what was changed and what it delivered, • Proven experience owning banking relationships, banking/loan facilities and covenant reporting, • Advanced financial modelling, including consolidation across multiple entities and systems, • Strong commercial awareness and the credibility to challenge Managing Directors and commercial leads, • Excellent organisational, problem-solving and decision-making skills, • Experience within a private equity backed or high-growth business, including investor reporting and covenant discipline, • Project-based sector background - agency, production, construction or contracting - where cash and revenue recognition diverge, • Multi-currency and international operations exposure, • Treasury management system selection and implementation, • Experience in a group that has completed acquisitions and integrated finance functions, • Highly detail-oriented and process-driven, • Calm and decisive under pressure, • Comfortable being the person who says a project does not have cash cover, and comfortable being challenged on it, • Pragmatic, proactive and solutions-focused, • Confident communicator with strong stakeholder management skills, • Curious about the operation, not just the ledger, • 25 days annual leave, plus usual Bank Holidays, • Birthday day off, • Private Health Insurance*, • Workplace pension scheme, • Death in service scheme, • Cycle to work scheme, • Hybrid working arrangement, • Regular social events *Upon successful completion of a 6-month probation period We are a people-first brand experience agency with a set of core principles that guide our every action by measuring: A win for the client Client success is at the forefront of everything we do.

Our client in Central Leeds didn't exist in 2020, but that hasn't stopped them establishing themselves in a regulated and well established industry, delivering major projects across the UK. They are now looking for a standalone Accountant to take ownership of the day to day finance function. At its core, the role covers the basics: Purchase and sales ledger invoicing Monthly payroll for around 25 employees Bank reconciliations and cash flow Sales and financial reporting VAT returns Some CIS work Keeping the accounts accurate and up to date Beyond that, there is plenty of scope to make the role your own. The business is forward thinking in its use of technology and already uses Power BI. Experience with Power BI would be great, but it isn't a deal breaker. They would be equally interested in someone who wants to learn and develop their skills in this area. You won't be left completely on your own either. The business has a strong relationship with its external accountants, who are present and available to provide support when needed. There are probably two types of person who could work well here. You might be an experienced Accountant or Bookkeeper who has “been there and done it”, enjoys taking ownership and wants a broad role where you can get on with running the accounts. Or, you might be someone earlier in your career who has a good grounding in transactional finance, payroll, VAT and reconciliations, but is ready to step up and take more responsibility for the overall finance function. Either way, you'll need to be a self starter. There won't be a big finance team around you, so this will suit someone comfortable taking ownership, solving problems and working directly with the people running the business. Salary: £40,000 – £45,000 IPS Finance has 45 years' experience in the Yorkshire accountancy recruitment market. We have built our business on long term relationships with both individuals and clients in all sectors, bringing real benefits to all concerned.
