Job Description
Finance Associate - Corgi Insurance (London) About Corgi Insurance
  • AI-powered insurance company focused on tech startups
  • $108M raised in funding
  • Licensed carrier with regulatory approval
  • Expanding into the UK and EU, scaling London office
Role Overview
  • Entry-level finance position with significant responsibility and growth potential
  • Not a traditional finance seat; expects proactive engagement beyond basic tasks
  • Expense processing, vendor scrutiny, and bookkeeping are starting points, not the full scope
Day-to-Day Responsibilities
  • Process expense reimbursements efficiently and accurately
  • Scrutinise vendors, expenses, and processes to ensure company money is not wasted
  • Bookkeeping is the minimum expectation; actively flag patterns and anomalies
  • Conduct ad-hoc finance research and work closely with team members
  • Make direct vendor calls and push back when necessary to protect company interests
Candidate Profile
  • Hungry, high-energy, and willing to work hard at startup pace
  • Low ego; open to handling any finance-related task as needed
  • Trustworthy and reliable
  • Strong numerical skills and attention to detail
  • Comfortable with transparent, public-first communication (no private silos)
  • Motivated to prove themselves, not just build a LinkedIn profile
Work Culture
  • Fast-paced environment; quick decisions are valued over perfect answers
  • Intensity remains high during both busy and quieter periods
  • Expected to bring solutions alongside problems
  • Internal competition is encouraged; strong performers raise standards
  • This is a build seat, not a position for coasting
Behaviours That Lead to Quick Removal
  • Politicking, dodging blame, or gossiping
  • Treating direct feedback as a personal attack
  • Adding unnecessary overhead instead of reducing it
  • Slow follow-through after committing to deadlines
Additional Information
  • London-based position; on-site or hybrid work options available
  • Compensation: £40,000 to £60,000 base salary plus equity (wide band reflects performance-based pay)
