About fin-house

At fin-house, we're fuelling start-ups, scaleups and SMEs with awesome finance teams.

The problem: The current go to for start-ups and SMEs is outsourcing their finance team to accountancy firms who are very far removed from the business and often simply produce numbers without context.

Our solution: At fin-house we deliver 'in-house'. This means, our clients will have a team IN their business, providing proactive insight, advice and commercial support enabling them to make the right decisions at the right time. We make sure our clients get the finance function they need, when they need it, seamlessly integrated into their business.

• You want to add value to clients and help them progress on their journey.
• You're a team player that wants to be part of a vibrant, collaborative and tight knit culture.
• You're a fast learner who has no difficulty in picking up new technologies and can easily adapt to new situations.
• You have intellectual curiosity and a passion for continuous learning and development.
• You are an excellent communicator and have great people skills with high levels of self-awareness. You love to pay attention to the details.
• You have impeccable time-management and organisation skills.

Requirements

• An accountancy qualification is desirable but we're willing to consider relevant alternative paths.
• 4-5 years' experience working in a finance-related role
• Experience with Xero and/or Quickbooks is ideal
