About the Role

As our Senior Financial Accountant, you’ll be at the heart of Gigacomm’s finance function during an exciting period of growth. Working closely with our Finance Manager and offshore accounts team, you’ll own the hands-on delivery of accurate, timely financial accounting and reporting – across month-end close, finance operations, tax compliance and the year-end audit – and help shape the controls and processes that support a scaling business.

With a dotted line to our FP&A; Manager, you’ll also be the bridge between the ledger and the plan, seeing first-hand how the numbers you produce shape budgets, forecasts and decisions on where we invest in our network. It’s a role with real ownership and visibility, and a chance to build commercial finance experience alongside your technical accounting skills.
