The Role

Hybrid: 3-days a week in our Farringdon HQ

We are looking for an experienced, audit-trained finance professional to own the month-end close, financial control, finance operations and statutory reporting at Numan.

This role owns the integrity of our numbers: the month-end close, the external audit and statutory accounts, day-to-day finance operations including invoice processing, banking, treasury and tax and the controls that sit behind them. Working closely with the Director of Finance and the wider Finance team and building strong relationships with teams across the business, you will strengthen our control environment and build processes that scale.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants ownership of the core of a growing finance function, to raise the standard of financial control and to shape how a fast-paced evolving business is run.

What you'll do

• Audit: Own the year-end audit and statutory accounts and be the main contact for our auditors.
• Month end: Own the month-end close and make it faster and more accurate as the business grows.
• Controls: Close out audit recommendations and build a controls framework fit for the next stage of the business.
• Process improvement: Improve and automate finance processes, using AI and systems to reduce manual work.
• Business partnering: Work closely with the FP&A team towards a common goal of accurate, timely numbers, and with the wider business to build controls into how we buy, spend and pay.
• Technical accounting: Lead on complex accounting areas and any changes in accounting standards.
• Finance operations and tax: Oversee invoice processing, payments, banking, cash forecasting, VAT, corporation tax and R&D claims.

You'll have

• ACA qualification, with audit training at a Big Four or mid-tier firm.
• Post-qualification experience as a Finance Manager or in a similar role within a high-growth business.
• Experience leading or supporting an external audit and preparing statutory accounts.
• Strong technical accounting knowledge
• A track record of improving the month-end close, controls and finance processes as a business evolves.
• Experience implementing finance systems and automation, with an AI-first approach to reducing manual work.
• Advanced Excel skills and experience with Xero or similar.
• The ability to communicate clearly with auditors, advisers and non-finance stakeholders.
• High standards of accuracy, real ownership of the numbers and the confidence to challenge constructively.
• A proactive, collaborative approach and comfort working in a fast-paced, evolving environment.

It's a bonus if you have

• Experience in a technology, digital health, subscription or D2C business.
• Experience implementing new finance systems or tools.
• A track record of raising the standard of a finance function.
