What we're hiring In this role you'll grow, be challenged and help shape the future of Xelix. If you're excited about building something special with us, we'd love to hear from you. About the role We're hiring a VP of Finance to bring our finance function fully in house and scale it for the next stage of growth. Today, we operate with a fractional CFO and FC. This role will take ownership of the finance agenda from the fractional CFO, establish a strong operating rhythm, and hire an in house FC to run day to day finance operations. You'll join our Executive Leadership Team (ELT), working closely with our two co founders and the wider VP leadership team. You'll be a strategic partner across the business - balancing commercial insight with strong governance - and ensuring we stay transaction ready as we scale. What you'll be doing 1) Bring finance in house and build a scalable function Lead the transition from fractional support to a high performing in house finance team. Hire and manage a strong Financial Controller who will own the detail of core accounting operations (month end, AP/AR, payroll oversight, statutory requirements). Define the finance operating model: responsibilities, controls, cadence, and how finance partners with the wider business. 2) Lead FP&A, performance management, and decision support Own the annual budgeting, rolling forecast, quarterly investor reporting. Establish a monthly operating cadence: performance reviews, KPIs, management packs. Partner with GTM leaders on pricing, hiring, modelling etc. 3) Own board and stakeholder reporting Lead board reporting with clear narrative, accurate numbers, and strong insight. Ensure consistent, high quality reporting for key stakeholders (board, auditors, advisors, and other parties as required). Build confidence and transparency through predictable reporting and effective governance. 4) Set the standards for control (without living in the weeds) Set expectations for close discipline, controls, and audit readiness - with the FC leading execution day to day. Ensure scalable policies and processes (e.g., revenue recognition, spend approvals, commissions). Step into detail when needed to unblock issues, raise quality, or meet critical deadlines. 5) Build the finance systems and data stack Define and deliver the finance systems roadmap (automation, reporting, spend controls, integrations). Improve speed and accuracy while reducing manual effort and operational risk. Strengthen data integrity so teams operate from "one version of the truth". 6) Own UK + US finance oversight and advisor relationships Oversee UK finance requirements and manage key external relationships. Own the US entity finance oversight: manage relationships with US accountants/advisors, coordinate US filings and compliance, and ensure group level consistency. Ensure cross border processes (intercompany, consolidated reporting) are robust and scalable. 7) Maintain transaction readiness Build and maintain the level of financial maturity required for future strategic transactions: clean reporting, strong controls, and diligence ready documentation. Support evaluation of strategic opportunities through modelling, scenario analysis, and commercial insight. What you'll bring Enterprise B2B SaaS experience (required) - you understand enterprise sales cycles, implementation realities, revenue dynamics etc. Proven experience in a high growth scale up, ideally having built or scaled a finance function through rapid growth. Strong leadership and hiring capability, with a track record of building high performing teams. Excellent FP&A and commercial partnership skills - you can translate metrics into decisions and drive performance across the business. Strong board level communication: crisp reporting, clear narratives, and confidence under scrutiny. A systems mindset: you've improved finance operations through process design, automation, and better tooling. US entity experience is a major plus (comfortable owning US advisors, filings, and cross border requirements).

Hire and manage a strong Financial Controller who will own the detail of core accounting operations (month end, AP/AR, payroll oversight, statutory requirements). Define the finance operating model: responsibilities, controls, cadence, and how finance partners with the wider business. 2) Lead FP&A, performance management, and decision support Own the annual budgeting, rolling forecast, quarterly investor reporting. Establish a monthly operating cadence: performance reviews, KPIs, management packs. Partner with GTM leaders on pricing, hiring, modelling etc. 3) Own board and stakeholder reporting Lead board reporting with clear narrative, accurate numbers, and strong insight. Ensure consistent, high quality reporting for key stakeholders (board, auditors, advisors, and other parties as required). Build confidence and transparency through predictable reporting and effective governance. 4) Set the standards for control (without living in the weeds) Set expectations for close discipline, controls, and audit readiness - with the FC leading execution day to day. Ensure scalable policies and processes (e.g., revenue recognition, spend approvals, commissions). Step into detail when needed to unblock issues, raise quality, or meet critical deadlines. 5) Build the finance systems and data stack Define and deliver the finance systems roadmap (automation, reporting, spend controls, integrations). Improve speed and accuracy while reducing manual effort and operational risk. Strengthen data integrity so teams operate from "one version of the truth". 6) Own UK + US finance oversight and advisor relationships Oversee UK finance requirements and manage key external relationships. Own the US entity finance oversight: manage relationships with US accountants/advisors, coordinate US filings and compliance, and ensure group level consistency. Ensure cross border processes (intercompany, consolidated reporting) are robust and scalable. 7) Maintain transaction readiness Build and maintain the level of financial maturity required for future strategic transactions: clean reporting, strong controls, and diligence ready documentation. Support evaluation of strategic opportunities through modelling, scenario analysis, and commercial insight. What you'll bring Enterprise B2B SaaS experience (required) - you understand enterprise sales cycles, implementation realities, revenue dynamics etc. Proven experience in a high growth scale up, ideally having built or scaled a finance function through rapid growth. Strong leadership and hiring capability, with a track record of building high performing teams. Excellent FP&A and commercial partnership skills - you can translate metrics into decisions and drive performance across the business. Strong board level communication: crisp reporting, clear narratives, and confidence under scrutiny. A systems mindset: you've improved finance operations through process design, automation, and better tooling. US entity experience is a major plus (comfortable owning US advisors, filings, and cross border requirements). What we offer in return Competitive salary depending on experience ️ 27 days of annual leave (including 3 days Christmas closing) which increases up to 3 days based on tenure, with the option to roll over, buy or sell up to 3 days Hybrid working from our dog friendly Hoxton office On site gym and cycle to work scheme ️ Employee discount at over 100 retailers Comprehensive private medical & dental cover with Vitality Enhanced parental leave pay Learning & development culture - £1,000 personal annual budget We're carbon neutral and are working towards ambitious carbon reduction goals Lots of team socials & activities ️ Annual team retreat Want to learn more?

We're looking for a commercially minded Finance Business Partner with experience in a manufacturing environment who wants to do more than produce reports. This is a role for someone who enjoys being close to the operational side of a business - working with leaders on the shop floor as well as in the boardroom, influencing decisions and turning financial data into insights that drive real performance. Based in Newcastle and reporting to the Financial Controller, you'll act as the bridge between finance and operations. You'll help managers understand what the numbers are really telling them, challenge assumptions, and ensure financial thinking supports day-to-day operational and strategic decisions. The Opportunity You'll work closely with operational teams and senior leaders to understand performance across the business. Your week might include reviewing KPIs with department heads, analysing production or cost variances, preparing management accounts, supporting forecasts and budgets, and helping evaluate investment decisions. A key part of the role is translating financial information into clear, practical insight that non-finance teams can act on. You'll help identify efficiencies, highlight risks and opportunities, and support strategic initiatives that improve profitability and operational performance. Because of the nature of the business, experience working in a manufacturing environment is essential. Understanding operational cost drivers, production performance, and working closely with operational teams will be critical to success in this role. About You You'll likely be a qualified accountant (ACCA, ACA or CIMA) or qualified by experience, with several years' experience in roles such as management accounting or finance business partnering. Most importantly, you'll have previous experience working in a manufacturing company, giving you a solid understanding of operational finance, cost drivers and performance metrics within a production environment. You're confident working with financial data and systems, but what really sets you apart is your ability to communicate clearly, build relationships and influence decisions outside the finance team. You enjoy working collaboratively, asking the right questions, and helping operational teams understand the financial impact of their decisions. Why This Role? This is an opportunity to step into a visible and commercially focused finance role where your insights will directly influence operational performance and strategic decisions. You'll work closely with leadership, gain exposure to key business initiatives, and play a central role in driving efficiency, profitability and continuous improvement.
