We're looking for aJunior Management Accountantto join our Financeteamat Tails.com. This individual will takeon a number of aspects of finance management at Tails.com including cash management and OPEX reporting. This is a hands-on role in a great company that presents a fantastic opportunity for the right candidate.

Changing the world of pet food for good

We're Tails.com, a dog food subscription company with a big difference. We create truly tailored food for each and every dog we serve. We start by asking people a few simple questions about their dog. Then we use that information to create their dog's unique Tails.com recipe - so their dog gets exactly the nutrition they need, in the taste they love, delivered to their door every month. It's clever stuff.

We've got ambitious plans. Having created an entirely new category in pet food, we're now scaling fast in the UK and Europe - backed by Purina, one of the world's largest pet food companies. You'll join a bunch of smart people working towards the same goals - and a bunch of smart-ish dogs, all working on their own thing.

Together, we'll change the world of pet food for good.

Decisions... Decisions

Join the finance team at Tails.com and you'll help everyone here make better decisions. We listen. We ask questions. We find new ways and build new tools to help people understand what's going on, measure what impact they have, and predict what might happen next.

We're connected to every team in Tails.com, joining dots across the business. We don't write reports that sit in drawers. In a company that changes as fast as we do, the work you do in the morning can be in the hands of customers by that afternoon.
