The business is built around trust, autonomy, and collaboration. Engineers are empowered, the leadership is freeing and teams are encouraged to think creatively and own their work. Attrition is low and engagement is high; this is a company where people join and stay because of the quality of the work and the freedom to do it well. With around 100 people currently and offices in Edinburgh, Bristol and San Diego, SeeByte continues to grow steadily, underpinned by a healthy financial position, long-term contracts, and a strong reputation in global markets. The business is financially very successful and has a strategy to invest significantly to deliver sustainable growth. In accounting terms SeeByte is a Services style business. It has some SeeByte owned software products accounting for 20% of revenue and this income is put back into the products. Most of our revenue comes from military customers and the Finance Director must be comfortable with that. These products usually form the backbone of their customer proposals and are fundamental to the growth of the business. SeeByte does some training and support activities, but the mainstay of the business is producing relatively bespoke software in their niche market for their customers. SeeByte often has exploitation rights to this bespoke software. SeeByte is profitable and cash generative. There is no requirement for raising capital and cashflow planning is not required for any practical purpose. All product development is expensed and there are no materials or stock on the balance sheet. Revenue recognition is a key focus for the accounts team and the Balance Sheet. A key accounting task is providing systems and reporting for Governments that all have their own systems and detailed rules and requirements. We are seeking a proactive and strategic Finance Director to lead the financial management of this small but growing business which currently has a 4-person finance team. This role is hands-on and ideal for a detail-oriented professional who can oversee budgeting, financial planning and compliance, while contributing to overall business strategy.
