Job description

What we are building at Conveo

Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high-quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing, product, and research teams.

#1 What problem are we solving and why is this an important problem to solve

The current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial, thereby limiting the quantity and quality of research companies can conduct. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them.

#2 The team you will join

You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate, high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives. Our team has the combination of decades of market research knowledge, incredible engineering ability, and experience building companies.

#3 How we operate

• We truly care about our clients and the problem we solve. That means we humbly go the extra mile every time.
• We work hard and we have fun.
• To keep our quality bar incredibly high, we want to execute with the smallest possible team.

About The Role

We are winning Fortune 500 clients at warp speed while expanding internationally and growing our team.

As Finance & Strategy Associate, you will work directly with the founders and leadership on the numbers behind every major decision — combining hands‑on financial operations with the strategic analyses that shape how Conveo scales through Series B and beyond.

In this role, you’ll start by being the operator and guardian of Conveo’s financials, work directly with founders and leadership across all divisions, and drive the discussions for every significant call on capital, revenue and expenses, hiring, and growth. In other words, you will be Conveo’s architect that knows every figure of Conveo’s financials.

This role is for a generalist willing to drive financial and strategic decision‑making — someone who moves comfortably between owning the numbers and shaping the decisions behind them.

The early months will be predominantly finance‑focused whilst operating, building, and scaling the finance function and reporting directly to the CFO. However, the role also has potential to focus more pure strategic aspects. How much you lean into broader strategy and GTM work over time will depend on business needs as well as your own aspirations and capabilities.

Your Mission

Make Conveo’s finance function bullet‑proof for hypergrowth:

• Financial architecture — bring structure and scalability to the finance function: design, implement, and optimise the financial systems (e.g. ERP setup, expense controls, tools optimisation), processes, and internal controls that take Conveo from 70 to 200+ people
• Cash & runway mastery — give the company and investors real‑time clarity on cash burn and liquidity management, enabling fast and confident decision‑making
• Finance operations — manage and optimise A/R & A/P, compliance, transfer pricing, VAT, and set up of financial budgets
• Financial strategy & planning — financial models, hiring plan, scenario analyses, KPI tracking and monitoring
• Accounting — coordinate with accountants to close and consolidate the books across our US, UK, and BE entities
• Investor & board reporting — own financial reporting for investors, support in future fundraising, and build financial credibility that unlocks Series B
• Business orchestration — ESOP & commission plans, pricing, deal economics, capital allocation
• Fundraising — Series B preparation, subsidies, financial due diligence, additional ways of financing

The weighting across these areas will shift with business needs and your aspirations over time.

What We’re Looking For

Must-haves

• 1–4 years of experience, ideally in investment banking, consulting, PE/VC, or a high‑growth startup
• Model mastery: three‑statement modelling, scenario analysis, business cases, and ad‑hoc models
• Strong analytical and communication skills — able to translate numbers into decisions for non‑finance stakeholders
• Unmatched interest in high‑growth startups
• Strong SaaS metrics understanding: ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV, burn multiple
• Familiarity with accounting
• Ability to start in August, the earlier the better
• Willingness to work in UK or BE
• Fluent in English

Mindset

• Builder — thrives in 0-to-1 environments and creates structure from scratch
• Low ego — happy to switch between strategic analysis and hands‑on ops work
• Precise — strong eye for detail and numerical accuracy

Bonus

• Familiarity with Belgian, UK and US accounting
• Part of Series B or C fundraising and experience with financial DD
• Some touchpoints with FP&A are a plus but not a necessity
• Experience with 409A, R&D subsidies, tax administration, transfer pricing

What Success Looks Like

• Timely and accurate management of payables and receivables
• Financial model and KPI tracking actively driving decisions
• Live burn, runway, and KPI dashboard trusted by leadership and investors
• Financial results as well as board and investor reporting delivered on time
• Strategic analyses (pricing, hiring, expansion) shaping key calls
• Conveo financially sound and prepared for Series B

Why join us?

• Conveo closed its Series A round — with backing from Tier 1 investors
• Shape finance & strategy from Series A to Series B and beyond
• Fortune 500 clients with exposure through industry events across the globe
• Competitive compensation (including equity)
• Rapidly growing organisation with offices across London, Antwerp, New York, and upcoming cities

Compensation Range: £50K - £90K
