Company Description: Shuffle - VC-backed circular finance platform for hospitality


Job Description: Join a fast-growing fintech as the first Head of Finance, owning the entire financial engine from day-to-day operations to strategic modeling. You will manage a £2.5M+ loan book, lead investor reporting, and scale financial systems as the team doubles. This is a high-impact, hands on role combining technical compliance with commercial growth strategy.


Location: London, UK

  • High-impact leadership as the primary owner of the financial model, working directly with the Head of Lending to scale the B2B and B2C platforms.

  • Unique culture of "A-players" with a focus on ownership and winning, offering a blend of in-person collaboration in Hoxton and flexible remote Wednesdays.


What you will do:

  • Build and maintain the master 3-statement financial model to forecast runway, revenue, and cash burn across lending and consumer business lines.

  • Oversee lending operations and treasury, maintaining the "loan tape" as the single source of truth for all UK hospitality investments and drawdowns.

  • Lead all core finance functions including month-end close in Xero, payroll management, and statutory reporting in partnership with external accountants.


The ideal candidate:

  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA) likely trained at a Big 4 or Top 10 firm within Audit or Transaction Services.

  • Advanced financial modeling expert capable of building robust, multi entity Excel or Google Sheets models from scratch without breaking.

  • Operationally rigorous professional with a "Controller" mindset who possesses the integrity to handle payroll and the gravitas to present to the Board.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network. Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description. We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it. Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
