Job summary

Humanoid is hiring a Finance Operations Analyst in London to streamline core processes from supplier onboarding to payments, expenses and reconciliations. You will help build an automated procure-to-pay workflow as we scale manufacturing volumes.

Qualifications

• 2 to 4 years’ experience in finance operations, accounting or accounts payable.
• Experience with modern spend and AP platforms and ERP systems (Ramp, Payhawk, Tipalti, SAP, NetSuite, Xero).

• Comfortable with data and analysis, using spreadsheets and finance systems to spot trends and errors.
• Highly organized and process-driven, with initiative to document and improve processes.
• Comfortable with high volume and ambiguity in a fast-scaling startup.
• Ambition to grow beyond finance operations into broader accounting and finance responsibility.
• An accounting qualification, or being on the journey towards one, is a plus.

• Process supplier invoices end to end across multiple entities and currencies with coding, approvals and PO matching.
• Prepare and execute weekly multi-currency payment runs with a full audit trail.
• Own supplier onboarding and vendor master data, including bank detail verification.
• Administer employee expenses and corporate cards on our spend platform.
• Manage supplier statements and queries, acting as the go-to contact for suppliers and internal teams.
• Deliver AP cutoff, accruals, and reconciliations within the monthly close calendar.
• Support bank reconciliations and other month-end close tasks.
• Work with the Senior Group Accountant to ensure data feeds into the group close.
• Produce supplier spend and payment analysis and AP ageing reports.
• Identify opportunities to improve payment terms and controls; support ad hoc reporting.

Job description

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Finance Operations Analyst to join our Finance team in London. You will run and improve the core operational processes that keep finance moving across our global entities, from supplier onboarding and invoice processing through to payment runs, expenses and reconciliations, and you’ll help us build an automated, well-controlled procure-to-pay process as we scale into manufacturing volumes.

Accounts payable is the core of the role today, but this is deliberately a broad finance operations position rather than a purely transactional one. As the finance function grows, there will be opportunities to take ownership of additional accounting processes, including accounts receivable, reconciliations, month-end close and other areas of the finance function. You’ll help design the processes, not just run them.

What You’ll Do

Finance Operations

• Process supplier invoices end to end across multiple entities and currencies, including coding, approvals and matching to purchase orders.

• Prepare and execute 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 our spend platform, driving policy adoption and timely receipts.

• Manage supplier statements and queries, and act as the go-to contact for suppliers and internal teams.

Accounting and Close

• Deliver AP cutoff, accruals, aged creditors analysis and supplier statement reconciliations to the monthly close calendar.

• Support bank reconciliations and other month-end close tasks, taking on more ownership as the function develops.

• Work alongside the Senior Group Accountant to ensure operational data feeds cleanly into the group close.

Analysis and Insight

• Produce supplier spend and payment analysis, and AP ageing and working capital reporting to support cash management.

• Identify opportunities to improve payment terms, purchasing controls and process efficiency, and support ad hoc finance reporting and analysis.

Systems and Process

• Use our spend and AP tooling, including its AI features, to drive touchless invoice processing.

• Support the rollout of PO‑based purchasing and three‑way match as procurement volumes grow.

• Support integrations between our spend tooling and ERP, and document processes and controls clearly as we build them.

What We’re Looking For

• 2 to 4 years’ experience in finance operations, accounting or accounts payable, ideally within a fast-growing or multi‑entity environment.

• Experience with modern spend and AP platforms (for example Ramp, Payhawk or Tipalti) and ERP systems (SAP, NetSuite, Xero or similar).

• Strong controls instincts, including accuracy, segregation of duties and a clean audit trail.

• Comfortable with data and analysis, using spreadsheets and finance systems to spot trends, errors and opportunities.

• Highly organised and process‑driven, with the initiative to improve and document as you go.

• Comfortable with high volume and ambiguity in a fast‑scaling startup environment.

• Ambition to grow beyond finance operations into broader accounting and finance responsibility.

• An accounting qualification, or being on the journey towards one, is a plus and can be supported.

What We Offer

• Competitive equity: stock options with meaningful upside as we scale.

• 30+ paid days off, including 23 days of annual leave, all UK bank holidays, and additional company closure days (including Christmas to New Year shutdown).

• Private healthcare, including virtual and in‑person care.

• Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in‑office.

• Work at the frontier: collaborate daily with world‑class engineers, researchers, and product experts building the next generation of AI and humanoid robotics.

• Real ownership: direct access to leadership, meaningful input, and the ability to drive key initiatives from day one.
