What makes this role interesting
This is not a traditional accounting role.
You will sit at the intersection of finance, operations and business strategy, helping build the financial infrastructure required to scale a multi-channel consumer business.
The role offers significant exposure to the CFO and founders, with the opportunity to become a key finance leader within the organisation.
