Base pay range

We are Raft, an AI-driven start-up that automates operations for freight forwarding, a critical part of the global supply chain. We're transforming this $200B industry's heavily manual processes from the ground up. Our customers include several of the world's top 10 freight forwarders, and many more. We recently raised $15m from Bessemer Venture Partners (LinkedIn, Twilio, Shopify), Episode 1 (Zoopla, Betfair, Shazam) and Dynamo (Sennder, Stord). We're named as one of the UK's most exciting AI start-ups by Tech Nation, recognized by the Mayor's International Business Programme and Innovate UK, and we've been featured in Techcrunch and Bloomberg as well as leading industry publications JOC, Freightwaves and Loadstar. We have ambitious expansion plans and are looking for future Rafters who are excited by rapid company growth, want to navigate challenging problems, and are eager to embrace responsibility.

If you geek out over SaaS metrics, dream in financial models, and want to work directly with our C-Suite to shape the future of logistics tech, this is your chance to have a massive impact.

Day to Day Responsibilities:

Money Meets Strategy:

Be the numbers wizard behind our growth story - from crafting our financial narrative for Series C to spotting the next big revenue opportunity
Turn complex data into crystal-clear insights that our CEO and leadership team can act on
Own our SaaS metrics (ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV) and make them sing
Build financial models that don't just predict the future - they help create it

Business Impact:

Work shoulder-to-shoulder with our C-Suite to drive decisions that matter
Partner with our Data and RevOps teams to uncover hidden growth opportunities
Lead business reviews that spark action, not yawns
Be the strategic brain our leaders turn to when facing tough choices

Financial Leadership:

Create dashboards and reports that tell compelling stories, not just show numbers
Automate the boring stuff so you can focus on strategic thinking
Build the financial foundation for a company that's reshaping global trade

What You Bring to the Table

Demonstrable experience crushing it in B2B SaaS finance
Been through the VC/PE funding rodeo before
Financial modelling skills that would make Wall Street jealous
Deep understanding of what makes SaaS businesses tick
Data science chops are a big plus
Experience with fundraising (bonus if you've helped land a Series B and beyond)

The X-Factor:

You're a self-starter who doesn't need hand-holding
You can translate complex ideas into simple language
You thrive in the controlled chaos of high growth
You want to work from our buzzing London HQ

Work directly with seasoned leaders who've scaled major tech companies

Apply Because You Want To...
