At Metomic, we're building the future of data security—simple, smart, and stress-free. Now, we’re looking for someone who thrives on turning numbers into insights and processes into well-oiled machines. If you love digging into the details without losing sight of the bigger picture, you might just be the person we need.

What You’ll Own:

💼 Financial Operations: Take the reins on our day-to-day financial activities—think accounts payable/receivable, payroll, expenses, and banking.

✅ Compliance & Tax: Keep us on the right side of tax laws and financial regulations, covering VAT, corporation tax, and official filings.

🔑 Audit-Ready: Lead the charge when it’s time for audits or financial due diligence with external partners.

🛠️ Tech-Savvy: Work with tools like Xero, QuickBooks, Excel, Google Sheets, and SaaS-specific platforms to keep everything running smoothly.

💡 Cost Management: Track expenses, analyze trends, and recommend cost-saving opportunities that won’t compromise growth.

📊 Reporting That Matters: Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports. You'll create key metrics that help our board and investors see the bigger picture.

📈 Budgeting & Forecasting: Partner with our leadership team to plan budgets, manage cash flow forecasts, and track performance against goals.

🔍 Process Improvement: Spot inefficiencies? You’ll streamline processes, optimize systems, and strengthen our financial controls as we scale.

🚀 Investor Support: Help us shine in fundraising rounds with solid financial models and due diligence materials.

What We’re Looking For:

A sharp, detail-oriented finance professional who’s not afraid to challenge the status quo.
Comfortable juggling multiple tasks, from high-level strategy to hands-on number crunching.
Strong communication skills—you’ll work closely with different teams and stakeholders.
Experience with scaling financial processes in fast-growing companies? That’s a huge plus.

Why Metomic?

Flexible working: We care about outcomes, not clock-watching.
Impact: Your work will directly influence how we grow and succeed.
Supportive team: We’re big on collaboration, continuous learning, and having each other’s backs.
