puestos de Finance Director en Gran Bretaña

Arondite is a defence technology company building the foundational software and AI to power the autonomous age. Our aim is to revolutionise the way organisations collaborate with sensors, robots and autonomous systems and use the data they generate. We are driven by our determination to help defend our collective democratic values and by our strong belief that an elite group of engineers can make a big difference. We are ambitious, well-funded and building for the long-term.

You will join Arondite at a pivotal moment in the company’s journey. Our company is being built by exceptional engineers - people who find high-impact and technically challenging work engaging and exciting, and who consistently deliver outsized impact. You will collaborate with other brilliant minds to solve some of the world’s hardest and most important problems.

You will have ownership and autonomy from Day One. There is no corporate ladder at Arondite. From your first day, you will directly influence the design, functionality, and direction of Arondite’s product offering. We hire the best people and give them extremely high levels of autonomy; the sky is the limit for an individual with the right ambition.

If you are motivated by our mission and if you want to be part of a growing team of outstanding people, then we want to hear from you.

Arondite is looking for a strategic and hands-on Finance Director to lead our financial operations and planning. You will be responsible for building a world-class finance function that supports our growth, ensures financial discipline, and enables long-term success.

You’ll work closely with the executive team to shape financial strategy, manage investor relations, and ensure compliance with relevant standards. You’ll also help build scalable systems and processes to support a fast-growing, high-performance technology company.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading financial strategy, planning, and forecasting
• Managing budgeting, reporting, and compliance processes
• Building and mentoring a high-performing finance team
• Overseeing cash flow, capital allocation, and risk management
• Supporting fundraising, governance, and investor communications
• Implementing scalable financial systems and controls
• Ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and standards

You should have:

• Proven experience in a senior finance leadership role
• ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualified (or equivalent)
• Strong understanding of financial regulations and reporting standards
• Experience in tech, defence, or high-growth sectors preferred
• Excellent communication skills
• A pragmatic, hands-on approach to solving complex financial challenges

Ideally, you would also have:

• Experience working with venture-backed startups
• Familiarity with financial modelling and scenario planning
• Exposure to international finance and multi-entity structures
• Experience with cashflow management strategies

Note: We want Arondite to bring together individuals from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. We don\'t expect everyone to have experience across each of these areas. Please apply even if you only partially fulfil this list.

Security clearance

We believe in working closely with defence customers. As a result, this role will require the individual to hold a clearance or be willing to undergo UK security vetting to Security Check (SC) or above. This normally requires having continuous residency in the UK for at least 5 years.

Office vs Hybrid working

We are focused on building a positive, collaborative engineering-driven culture. We therefore believe in making the office a friendly, comfortable and fun place to be, and we try to work from the office where possible. Of course, there are times when it makes sense for you to work from home and that\'s OK. You may also need to travel to visit customers, depending on your role. But in general you should only apply to join Arondite if you\'re excited to come into the office and work in person by default.

Application process

Generally, our interview process is comprised of the following stages:

1. CV submission with initial questions
2. Introductory Teams call (30 mins)
3. In-person interview (1-2 hours)
4. Final interview with one of Arondite’s Founders (30 mins)

• Highly competitive base salary
• Generous equity in EMI share options in a well-funded and growing startup
• 7% employer pension contribution
• Free meals daily in the office
• Private health and dental insurance
• Cycle to work scheme
• Relocation support
• Visa sponsorship for extremely strong candidates
• Access to any resources, equipment and training that you need to do your job in a world-class way
• The opportunity to work with and learn from exceptional colleagues with excellent academic experience and deep industry knowledge
