Financial Accountant

London-based hybrid (3 days in office). Competitive salary. Discretionary profit share.

We're working on a search for one of the UK's fastest-growing FinTechs in cross-border payments — multiple international offices, several regulatory licences, and rapid year-on-year growth.

This is a newly created role sitting between the Financial Controller and the Finance Assistant. You'll own the day-to-day finance engine room in a fast-moving scale-up — freeing up the FC to focus on reporting, governance, audit and tax — while helping improve how the function runs as it scales.

What you'll own:

• Month-end close, journals, reconciliations, accruals and prepayments
• AP/AR, payment workflows and commission calculations
• Monthly payroll inputs and employee expenses
• Bank and intercompany reconciliations
• Management accounts support and audit schedules
• Automating and streamlining the manual work

• Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA), ideally ~1 year PQE
• Strong grip on AP, AR, reconciliations, month-end and management accounts
• Good Excel (lookups, SUMIFS, pivot tables); Xero a plus
• Someone who's trained somewhere rigorous and thrives in a scale-up — agile, hands-on, no ego
