Role Description

The engine room. The one who builds the system that tells leadership where the money is, where it's going, and what to do about it. Not the one who produces reports that sit in inboxes. The one who builds forecasts that change decisions, models that reveal what nobody else can see, and a weekly rhythm that turns numbers into action.

Right now, [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal] makes some of its most important decisions without the financial intelligence to make them well. You would fix that.

From £1m to over £100m in under three years, with a small, talent-dense team and an electric culture with day one founder intensity. Now we're aiming for £1bn in the next three.
