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. And they’re about to go live. So, it’s a fantastic time to join.

You’ll be the firm’s first Finance hire, and it’s envisaged that this position will develop into a Head of Finance role in due course.

They also have a really flexible working policy. You can work completely remotely, go into the office every day, or anything in between—it's entirely up to you. Whatever suits you and your circumstances best.

Initially a standalone role, you’ll manage the firm’s financial operations, ensuring compliance with legal, regulatory, and accounting rules, and oversee complex cash flows with their investment and trading activities.

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

In addition, you’ll lead cash flow forecasting and liquidity management for the business, ensuring adequate capital reserves are maintained for operational and regulatory purposes, with appropriate controls for escalations and reporting.

You’ll be a qualified accountant with strong experience in cash flow forecasting and liquidity management within a MIFIDPRU environment. You should be fully conversant with all relevant regulations and possess excellent stakeholder management skills.
