Bunch is an early-stage scale-up at the forefront of simplifying people's lives through innovative technology that makes taking care of household finances a breeze by managing, paying & optimising all your bills in one place.

We’re a growing team of 40+ on an exciting journey of development, and we’ve put a lot of passion into our platform to remove stress and give you back valuable time to spend doing the things that matter to you

Now, we’re seeking a Head of Finance to take on this new position for us, supporting our CFO, to manage all aspects of financial operations and be an integral part of our senior management team to help drive our business forward.

About You:

Joining us in this brand-new role demands a high-energy finance enthusiast with a proven track record in financial strategy, FP&A, and people management . Not to worry, we don’t require a startup background, but you must be someone that thrives in a business of our size and pace. Your experience is crucial, and your impact will resonate across the organisation.

You will demonstrate the following:

  • Drive financial excellence through accurate forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis in collaboration with department heads and leadership.
  • Expert in financial reporting, delivering precise statements, reports, and analyses on time.
  • Innate compliance with accounting standards and adept management of cash flow, working capital, and liquidity strategies.
  • Proven track record in building high-performing teams with a focus on collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement.
  • Background in evaluating and optimising financial systems for efficiency, accuracy, and scalability, incorporating cutting-edge tools for enhanced operations.
  • Thrive in fast-paced environments, with a keen eye on remaining at the forefront of technological advancements.
  • Experience with accounting software such as Xero, QuickBooks, or Zoho Books.

The Role:

As Head of Finance in our rapidly scaling tech startup, you'll drive growth by spearheading financial strategy and FP&A initiatives. You will manage a team of 2, ensuring compliance with accounting standards and accurate financial reporting.

Other responsibilities include:

  • Oversee cash flow, working capital, and capital expenditures to enhance liquidity and mitigate financial risks.
  • Evaluate and optimise financial systems and processes for efficiency, accuracy, and scalability.
  • Collaborate with the Finance Manager to establish robust reporting in Xero, analyse markets, and report on overheads and costs.
  • Play a crucial role in revenue recognition and tackle unique challenges in our SaaS-driven business.
  • Take ownership of our year-end financial reporting, tax returns, and payroll analysis.
  • Line management of the Finance team, driving continuous development through in-house training and providing admin support.

Your Career:

Joining Bunch early in our journey offers unlimited scope for growth. You will have the autonomy to shape the role and drive the function forward. Ambitious plans for the future await, and with the guidance of our high-profile board of advisors, your career can propel towards massive growth.

What we offer:

  • Enjoy 25 days of holiday (pro rata for part-time) plus an extra day off for your birthday
  • Celebrate our collective success with quarterly social events that foster team unity.
  • Access the Vitality Health package to prioritise your well-being.
  • Enhanced Maternity, Adoption, and Paternity Pay - we understand the importance of family, and we're committed to supporting you.
  • Opportunity to develop and evolve.
  • Cycle to Work Scheme - enjoy the perks of a healthier commute and save on your journey.
  • A stocked kitchen with breakfast cereals and pastries, a stash of snacks and the essentials for making a quick and easy sandwich.
  • 3 hours available to take each month to catch up on life’s admin.
  • Company shares.

We're an energetic, fun, and hard-working team, and our CEO, Elliott, has created an environment of collaboration and inclusivity. With lots of growth ahead, it's an exciting journey and we want our team to be a part of it.
