Finance Operations Analyst
The Client
A well-funded deep-tech business building hardware and AI products for industrial customers, having raised over $100m in its Series A from leading VC investors. It is moving from early customer deployments towards production at scale, and the finance function is growing to support that next stage.
The Role
Joining a small, growing finance team, this is a hands-on finance operations role with accounts payable at its core. You will run procure-to-pay across multiple entities and currencies, from supplier onboarding and invoice processing through to weekly payment runs, expenses and reconciliations, and support the wider finance team on month-end.
Key Responsibilities
- Process supplier invoices end to end across multiple entities and currencies, including coding, approvals and PO matching
- Prepare and run weekly multi-currency payment runs with clean approvals and a full audit trail
- Own supplier onboarding and vendor master data, including bank detail verification and compliance checks
- Administer employee expenses and corporate cards on the spend platform, driving policy adoption and timely receipts
- Deliver AP cut-off, accruals, aged creditors and supplier statement reconciliations to the month-end timetable
- Produce supplier spend, AP ageing and working capital reporting to support cash management
- Use modern spend and AP tooling, including AI features, to automate invoice processing and support the introduction of PO matching
- Document processes and controls as they are built, and support integrations between the spend platform and the ERP
Essential Experience
- 2-4 years' experience in accounts payable, finance operations or accounting
- Experience handling high invoice volumes, ideally across multiple entities and currencies
- Background in a high-growth tech business or scale-up, with a track record of high performance
- Hands-on use of a modern spend or AP platform (e.g. Ramp, Spendesk, Payhawk, Tipalti) and an ERP (e.g. NetSuite, SAP, Xero)
- Strong controls instincts: accuracy, segregation of duties and a clean audit trail
- Confident with spreadsheets and data, and quick to adopt AI and automation tools
- Self-driven, hard-working and entrepreneurial, with a strong academic record
Desirable Experience
- Full procure-to-pay experience, including purchasing of direct goods
