Job description

Post-Trading FinTech

Are you looking for a natural route to your first Head of Finance role?

Or perhaps you’re simply looking for more flexibility to work from home?

This FinTech start-up will revolutionise the post-trading space both here in the UK and across Europe. They’re about to go live, making it a fantastic time to join.

You’ll be the firm’s first Finance hire, with potential to develop into a Head of Finance role.

The company offers flexible working options: fully remote, in-office, or hybrid — whatever suits you best.

Initially a standalone role, you’ll manage financial operations, ensuring compliance with legal, regulatory, and accounting standards, and oversee complex cash flows related to investment and trading activities.

You’ll be responsible for driving financial strategy, managing all financial reporting including the ICARA process, and ensuring adherence to capital and liquidity requirements.

You’ll lead cash flow forecasting and liquidity management, maintaining adequate capital reserves for operational and regulatory needs, with proper controls for escalation and reporting.

To qualify, you should be a qualified accountant with strong experience in cash flow forecasting and liquidity management within a MIFIDPRU environment, familiar with relevant regulations and with excellent stakeholder management skills.
