Did you know Apple runs its global finance function with just seven people?

When you think this way, you think differently about how to do business. You simplify. You focus. You build lean, high-performing systems that scale, without the noise or bureaucracy.

We’re looking for a Senior Financial Controller who can do exactly that.

What You’ll Do

• Scale with Precision: Lead a lean finance function that runs efficiently while supporting a rapidly growing business.

• Create Best-in-Class Systems: Design processes and systems that give us clarity, speed, and confidence in our decisions.

• Lead with Impact: Build the finance function fostering a culture of accountability and high performance.

• See Beyond the Numbers: Deliver insight, not just reports. Help the executive team make bold, strategic decisions that shape the future of the company.

About You

• You thrive in scale-up environments and know how to make finance a strategic enabler, not a bottleneck.

• You live and breathe operational excellence but can zoom out to see the story behind the numbers.

• You’re commercially minded, collaborative, and passionate about making a difference, not just closing the books.

• You care deeply about purpose and want to help build something that changes lives.

• You are no ordinary Senior Financial Controller - you're a builder, a leader, and a partner who knows how to turn numbers into momentum.

• Manage multi-entity financial reporting, including consolidations, reconciliations of bank accounts, and transaction oversight to ensure accuracy across all entities.

• Provide concise, data-driven board reports, investor updates, and internal financial health assessments.
• Manage daily cash flow, oversee treasury functions, and manage working capital to support business needs.
• Lead process improvement to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of financial reporting.
• Manage relationships with external auditors, coordinate the annual audit process, and ensure smooth regulatory compliance.
• Develop and monitor budgets, identify opportunities for cash and cost optimization, negotiate vendor discounts and relationships, and track financial performance against targets.
• Oversee M&A activities, ensuring standardized accounting policies and seamless integration of acquired entities without disruptions.
• Partner with Business, GTM, and Product teams to conduct strategic ad hoc analyses and support growth initiatives.

Qualifications:

• CA or CPA qualified with many years of experience in a similar role
