What are we building? An AI Executive Assistant!

In 1930, the economist John Maynard Keynes predicted that we'd only be working 15 hours a week by 2030. Despite automation in agriculture and industry, that hasn't happened.

Why? The service sector. Walk around the average office and you'll see people's days taken up by emails, Slack and meetings instead of real work.

People in client facing roles - think sales, professional services firms, recruiters - feel this pain most acutely. Instead of advising and connecting with clients, they spend hours doing admin. Following up. Scheduling meetings, then taking notes on them. Answering questions they've been asked a thousand times. Sorting through the mess that is their inbox.

We've built an AI executive assistant that looks at all your emails, messages and meetings, and uses that knowledge to answer your email, schedule meetings, take next steps from meetings and organise your inbox. We turn every employee into a top performer, effortlessly.

Unlike other startups, we're a pure-play applied AI company, not a SaaS company with AI features hastily bolted on! We make use of the best techniques (fine tuned open source models, tool use, and retrieval augmented generation) and as a result, users send 53% of the email drafts we generate.

How has it been going?

We launched our product in March 2024. Since then we've gone from $0 to $2.5m in revenue, across 3000 paid users. We've done this with a team of just 4, and without using any paid marketing until the start of November.

We spent the last 3 months in San Francisco at HF0, the best AI startup accelerator in the world, learning from experts like the CEO of Instacart, Head of Applied Research at OpenAI and the cofounder of Snowflake.

What do we value?

We're very intentional about adding new people. We think a small team of exceptional people working hard at a problem they care about will always beat a larger, more unfocused team. That does mean you'll need to bring an intensity to this role that might not be asked at other companies. But it also means you will be fast tracked into more senior roles and responsibilities far earlier. We predict we'll reach $15m in revenue by the end of 2025 - there will be plenty of opportunities for you!

This means we're deliberate about who joins us - and we're looking for people who share our passion for making customers successful. Our team thrives in the 0-to-1 stage, moving fast, learning faster, and constantly challenging the status quo to drive better outcomes for customers. We value ownership and autonomy, trusting our people to act decisively and deliver results. Above all, we seek those with a curiosity-driven growth mindset - always learning, adapting, and putting customers at the heart of everything we do.

What success looks like in this role?

In this role, success involves maintaining robust financial management practices, ensuring accurate and efficient processes, and providing insights that drive decision-making. You will help create seamless day-to-day bookkeeping systems, enhance month-end close processes, and develop effective financial planning and analysis frameworks.

Success also includes collaborating closely with leadership to measure financial performance, identifying opportunities for improvement, and building streamlined systems for operational excellence.

Requirements

What our ideal candidate looks like:

As Finance Analyst, your responsibilities will include: Managing day-to-day bookkeeping and maintaining accurate profit and loss (P&L) statements and balance sheets. Leading month-end close processes and implementing key controls. Tracking bank account balances, performing cash flow reconciliations, and ensuring accuracy across accounts. Creating and maintaining budgets and forecasts to support financial planning. Collaborating with the leadership team to analyze performance and provide actionable recommendations. Raising receivable invoices, processing supplier payments, and managing debt collection. Overseeing payroll and staff expenses. Ensuring compliance with revenue recognition policies and other statutory requirements. Using SQL and other tools for financial analysis and reporting. Streamlining workflows through automation tools like VBA or Python. What We're Looking For:

We are looking for someone with ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualifications (either part or fully completed) and experience in finance roles, whether in-house or in professional practice.

You should have experience with both management and statutory reporting, a solid understanding of revenue recognition, and familiarity with platforms like Netsuite or Sage Intacct. Proficiency in Excel is essential, and experience with coding languages such as VBA or Python is a bonus.

We value strong numeracy and data manipulation skills, as well as effective communication and stakeholder management. Attention to detail, creativity in problem-solving, and the ability to think strategically are also crucial for success in this role.

Benefits

What we are offering:

In addition to being an integral part of our business and a salary of £40,000-£45,000 per annum, we offer a significant benefits package including:

Up to 5% matched pension contribution Private healthcare Life cover Cycle to work scheme The application process:
