This is an opportunity to have a genuine impact in a rapidly changing organisation, with plenty of scope to help shape the future of the Finance function.

At CoMind, all team members work at least 4 days per week from our new Kings Cross offices, plus a flexible work-from-home day.

  • Support VAT, year-end, and audit delivery with a proactive, organised approach

  • Generate data and analysis for R&D tax credit and research grant claims

  • Support consolidation, payroll, cash management and FX as we grow internationally

  • Develop new systems and processes as we migrate to a scalable ERP system

Skills & Experience:

  • You enjoy improving systems, automating to focus on value add, and building for scale

  • You are ambitious and enjoy taking ownership and accountability for impactful projects

  • Exposure to US and other international entities is advantageous

  • Confident across month-end/year-end reporting, consolidations, FX, payroll, tax, audits

  • Comfortable with tools like Xero, Dext, ApprovalMax (or equivalent)

  • Experience designing and implementing new systems

Benefits:
  • Company equity plan so all employees share in the success of the company

  • Salary-sacrifice pension scheme

  • Private medical, dental and vision insurance (medical history disregarded)

  • Group life assurance at 4x annual income

  • Comprehensive mental health support, including unlimited access to 1:1 sessions with trained professionals
