Senior Finance Associate
We are looking for an experienced and dynamic Senior Finance Associate to join our rapidly growing team.
Do you want to work on some of the world’s biggest projects and help us tackle global challenges through a pioneering approach?
Senior Finance Associate (full-time and remote)
This is a unique opportunity for a professional with outstanding finance and accounting skills, a customer-orientated mindset, and excellent communication skills. You will also need a solid technology and innovation background, as we are planning to build a fully integrated technology service stack along the entire engagement lifecycle.
You will work with and support a wide range of internal and external stakeholders and help to develop our finance operations to meet our ambitious growth objectives. This will require you to represent Hyphen, acting as a key financial liaison and point of contact for any inquiries from our clients, contractors and partners.
In addition, you will collaborate with our internal tech teams as well as external partners – including banks and financial service providers – to help us develop the future of end-to-end external workforce management.
What you will achieve:
- Manage our monthly finance cycle: Prepare for the cycle, ensure the completeness and accuracy of documentation, calculate accruals, execute journal entries, generate sales invoices. Produce comprehensive period-end reports, including monthly and quarterly internal reports, banking reports, and financial analysis. Accurately post all documents in the accounting system, while ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and internal accounting policies. Actively participate in the budgeting and re-forecasting process, as well as closely monitor budget variances on an ongoing basis.
- Prepare key client reports: Provide support to the Head of Finance in running management reports, which serve as crucial tools for business decision-making. Proactively develop and enhance advanced client reporting tools.
- Build our future finance stack: Drive continuous improvements in both the monthly cycle workflow and reporting environment. Go beyond suggesting solutions and take the initiative to independently execute the improvement process. Provide support in developing a cross-functional and enhanced finance workflow.
- Act as a key counterpart to clients, contractors, and partners: Manage relationships with our clients and contractors, serving as the primary point of contact for all financial settlements and inquiries. Work alongside our Head of Finance in representing Hyphen in dealings with external auditors, tax authorities, and other external stakeholders.
You will have:
- Proven working experience as a financial controller or finance analyst (minimum three years).
- A strong sense of logic and the ability to execute ideas both autonomously and within teams.
- A willingness to take a high level of responsibility and ownership, and the ability to manage your workload in an efficient manner and prioritise tasks without constant supervision.
- A strong analytical and problem-solving mindset
- Proven project management skills, including the entrepreneurial drive to develop and execute self-designed initiatives.
- The ability to communicate concisely and clearly for different audiences.
- An interest in working in a start-up environment.
- A high comfort level working in a continually changing environment.
- A value-based, collaborative working style with a demonstrated commitment to the highest standards of ethics and confidentiality.
- Fluency in English, while proficiency in any other language is a plus.
What we offer
- Flexible working location and working hours.
- Competitive salary package (base salary, individual and team bonuses, and an employee stock option program) and technology allowance.
- Regular co-working weeks with the team.
- Generous holiday allowance and maternity/paternity leave policy.
- Access to coaching and mental health services (via our partner likeminded).
- Mentorship program and growth packages.
