Why we need you

The world is constantly and rapidly changing. We are all continually bombarded with an unlimited supply of information. The information we are surrounded by creates a bubble, and this bubble has a profound impact on the quality of our lives.


Medea was founded in pursuit of helping people to recognise that bubble, understand its workings, and to be empowered to make informed choices.


In pursuit of our cause, ProjectX is Medea’s first Location Based Immersive Experience, opening in London in 2025. We are recruiting for a financial wizz to join our leadership team and help to deliver some ambitious projects.

About Us:

Medea Creations is a pioneering start-up that leverages the power of the Arts to tackle the global challenge of misinformation. Through our innovative gamified theatre experiences, we engage audiences in ways that promote critical thinking and informed decision-making. Our productions are not just entertainment; they are immersive journeys that inspire action, spark meaningful dialogue, and empower individuals to navigate the complexities of the information landscape with clarity and confidence.

Role Overview:

We are seeking a highly organised and strategic Finance Director to establish and lead the financial operations of Medea Creations. This part-time role is critical in ensuring the financial health and sustainability of our business as we continue to grow. The ideal candidate will have experience in a start-up environment, preferably within the creative or entertainment industry, and will be comfortable handling both hands-on accounting tasks and higher-level strategic planning.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Financial Strategy & Planning:
  • Develop and implement the company’s financial strategy, ensuring alignment with our mission and business goals.
  • Provide financial insights and recommendations to support strategic decision-making.
  • Prepare financial forecasts, budgets, and long-term financial plans.

  • Set up and manage the company’s financial systems, processes, and controls.
  • Prepare accurate and timely financial statements, including profit and loss statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports.
  • Monitor financial performance and analyse key metrics to identify areas for improvement.
  • Cash Flow Management:
  • Oversee cash flow management, ensuring the company has sufficient funds to meet its operational needs.
  • Manage accounts payable and receivable, ensuring timely invoicing and payments.
  • Compliance & Risk Management:
  • Ensure compliance with UK financial regulations and tax requirements.
  • Implement risk management policies and procedures to safeguard company assets.
  • Liaise with external auditors, tax advisers, and legal counsel as needed.
  • Investor Relations:
  • Support the CEO and management team in fundraising activities, including preparing financial models and investor presentations.
  • Maintain relationships with investors and stakeholders, providing regular financial updates and reports.
  • Team Leadership & Development:
  • As the company grows, recruit, manage, and develop a small finance team.
  • Provide mentorship and guidance to junior finance staff, fostering a culture of financial accountability across the organisation.

Qualifications & Experiences:

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field; a professional accounting qualification (e.g., ACA, ACCA, CIMA) is preferred.

Experience:

  • Proven experience as a Finance Director, or in a similar senior finance role, ideally within a start-up or creative industry.
  • Experience with different business models, NFPs, for example.
  • Strong knowledge of UK accounting standards, tax regulations, and financial compliance requirements.
  • Experience in financial planning, analysis, and reporting.
  • Prior experience in investor relations is a plus.

Skills:

  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to convey financial concepts to non-financial stakeholders.
  • Proficiency in financial software and Microsoft Excel.
  • High attention to detail and organisational skills.

Personal Attributes:

  • Strategic thinker with a hands-on approach.
  • Adaptable and flexible, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Passionate about the arts and creative industries.


Our culture

Since Medea’s inception we have understood that, in order to have a chance to achieve our cause, we must prioritise not only the products that we produce, but the organisation that we build. We are serious about culture. 


We have discovered and articulated a philosophy that we care about deeply, and regardless of position; our young, growing company needs people who not only fit into the culture, but aid us in our ability to better execute our philosophy, and thus, to build an organisation that has real impact, and we can all be deeply proud of. 


These simple words will only serve as a hazy insight for now, but here are our deeply held values: critical thinking, listening, ambition, nourishment, playfulness and trust. 


We hope these are principles that you will see and feel.


Interview Process

The interview process will be over 2 stages: 

  • 2 x 1 hour interviews, with a mixture of Medea executives and leaders (we prefer in-person (Soho, London) where possible

After each phase we will provide an update (at minimum) within 1 working week
