OutThink is the world's leading, AI-native cybersecurity human risk management platform, on a mission to put humans at the center of security operations. We're redefining how people engage with cybersecurity. We go further by giving business security leaders with the tools to prevent human-initiated security incidents. Founded in 2019, OutThink's team is 50+ and growing across our offices in New York, London, Barcelona and Bangalore. We serve some of the most prominent organizations worldwide including Whirlpool, Danske Bank, VINCI, and the Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank. Our people are ambitious and driven innovators from a diverse range of backgrounds, passionate about their work, and excited about the mission we're on. We're backed by leading VCs including Albion Capital and Molten Ventures, as well as innovation bodies including the European Innovation Council and UK Innovation & Research. This role is ideal for an up-and-coming whizz who feels constrained by traditional accounting/finance roles and is eager to make a broader impact beyond financial statements. Alternatively, you've already 'earned your chops' in early-stage B2B SaaS startups and are seeking your next challenge. One thing is certain - you'll need to bring a strong growth mindset to make a significant impact within our operations team. What you'll do Drive financial accounting and finops. This will be primary objective. You will lead account-level month-end closing reviews and procedures, ensuring timely completion and reporting. This will form 50-60% of your day-to-day, and you'll be looked upon to constantly find efficiencies to run a lean motion. Support with execution on day-to-day operational tasks. This will include reporting obligations, financial modelling, and office planning. You'll play a crucial role in ensuring our operations run smoothly as we navigate rapid growth. Build processes for scale. Continuously support with reviewing and improving our internal-facing and external-facing processes, policies, and procedures in a collaborative way. This includes keeping our internal wikis up to date, including across Notion and SharePoint. Key people operations. Take responsibility for key people ops activities including global payroll, employee benefits, and onboarding process for new hires to ensure a seamless experience. Whatever else comes our way. We're a small scrappy operations team and we'll look to you to go outside of your swim-lane to get things done. This may include organizing events like end-of-year functions and parties, recruiting events, social events, team retrospectives and off-sites, and company retreats. Your background First and foremost, a great attitude. We're pioneering on new frontiers. You've got the right attitude towards a sense of urgency, risk, and uncertainty about the future that comes with working at an early-stage scale-up. You'll be self-managing, self-motivated. This is an opportunity to be involved in an exciting journey and be a core foundational member of our team. Financial expertise. You possess a strong financial foundation, ideally with a degree in finance, accounting, or a related discipline. You have experience managing financial accounting, payroll, AR/AP, and cash flow optimization. Ideally, you have exposure to Xero, and NetSuite migration. Proven academic or other excellence. You have a strong educational foundation and can demonstrate a track record of exceptional performance - whether that be academics, sport, professional, or another domain of interest. Ideally, you have a degree in a numerate or semi-numerate discipline (e.g. accounting), and have 5 to 7 years of experience as a Chartered Accountant. Operational excellence. You have a proven track record of developing and implementing operational processes that drive efficiency and scalability. Collaborative working style.

OutThink is the world's leading, AI-native cybersecurity human risk management platform, on a mission to put humans at the center of security operations. We're redefining how people engage with cybersecurity. We go further by giving business security leaders with the tools to prevent human-initiated security incidents. Founded in 2019, OutThink's team is 50+ and growing across our offices in New York, London, Barcelona and Bangalore. We serve some of the most prominent organizations worldwide including Whirlpool, Danske Bank, VINCI, and the Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank. Our people are ambitious and driven innovators from a diverse range of backgrounds, passionate about their work, and excited about the mission we're on. We're backed by leading VCs including Albion Capital and Molten Ventures, as well as innovation bodies including the European Innovation Council and UK Innovation & Research. This role is ideal for an up-and-coming whizz who feels constrained by traditional accounting/finance roles and is eager to make a broader impact beyond financial statements. Alternatively, you've already 'earned your chops' in early-stage B2B SaaS startups and are seeking your next challenge. One thing is certain - you'll need to bring a strong growth mindset to make a significant impact within our operations team. What you'll do Drive financial accounting and finops. This will be primary objective. You will lead account-level month-end closing reviews and procedures, ensuring timely completion and reporting. This will form 50-60% of your day-to-day, and you'll be looked upon to constantly find efficiencies to run a lean motion. Support with execution on day-to-day operational tasks. This will include reporting obligations, financial modelling, and office planning. You'll play a crucial role in ensuring our operations run smoothly as we navigate rapid growth. Build processes for scale. Continuously support with reviewing and improving our internal-facing and external-facing processes, policies, and procedures in a collaborative way. This includes keeping our internal wikis up to date, including across Notion and SharePoint. Key people operations. Take responsibility for key people ops activities including global payroll, employee benefits, and onboarding process for new hires to ensure a seamless experience. Whatever else comes our way. We're a small scrappy operations team and we'll look to you to go outside of your swim-lane to get things done. This may include organizing events like end-of-year functions and parties, recruiting events, social events, team retrospectives and off-sites, and company retreats. Your background First and foremost, a great attitude. We're pioneering on new frontiers. You've got the right attitude towards a sense of urgency, risk, and uncertainty about the future that comes with working at an early-stage scale-up. You'll be self-managing, self-motivated. This is an opportunity to be involved in an exciting journey and be a core foundational member of our team. Financial expertise. You possess a strong financial foundation, ideally with a degree in finance, accounting, or a related discipline. You have experience managing financial accounting, payroll, AR/AP, and cash flow optimization. Ideally, you have exposure to Xero, and NetSuite migration. Proven academic or other excellence. You have a strong educational foundation and can demonstrate a track record of exceptional performance - whether that be academics, sport, professional, or another domain of interest. Ideally, you have a degree in a numerate or semi-numerate discipline (e.g. accounting), and have 5 to 7 years of experience as a Chartered Accountant. Operational excellence.
