Job description

Startup energy. CFO mentorship. Real impact.

This is not a "keep-the-lights-on" accounting role.

Our client is a fast-growing startup in the tech-education space, and theyre looking for a Financial Accountant who wants front-row exposure to growth, decision-making and scale.

You'll work closely with the CFO, be taken under their wing, and get involved where the business actually happens.

If youre business-minded, curious, and comfortable rolling up your sleeves, youll fit right in.

What youll be doing

• Supporting the CFO across financial reporting, controls and decision support
• Getting hands-on with month-end, budgets, forecasts and cash flow
• Translating numbers into insight for a growing business
• Helping build and improve finance processes as the company scales
• Being part of an all-hands-on-deck culture where initiative matters

Hybrid is on offer, but this role suits someone who enjoys being involved, visible and invested.

What theyre looking for

• BCom in Finance (minimum) with strong academic results
• A business-minded, proactive approach
• Comfortable in a startup or fast-moving environment
• Curious, innovative and eager to learn
• Happy to be hands-on rather than siloed
