About Us

We are a mission-driven accessibility start-up dedicated to transforming how neurodivergent individuals navigate their educational and professional journeys.

Since launching our first product, Present Pal, back in 2018, Estendio has empowered students across over 150 universities in the UK and US to communicate with confidence, growing to a team of over 25 along the way. Building on that success, we’ve now launched Tailo, an AI-powered reading platform designed to revolutionise content accessibility and comprehension.

Our vision is to make inclusivity the standard, not the exception. If you’re ready to join a brilliant team committed to levelling the playing field through tech for good, we’d love to hear from you.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Finance Manager to take ownership of our day-to-day financial operations as we scale. Reporting to our Interim CFO, you’ll be the engine behind accurate management accounts, strong financial controls, and the financial insight that helps leadership make better decisions, faster.

You’ll own the numbers end-to-end, from ledgers and payroll to VAT and management reporting, and play a key role in keeping our finance function sharp, compliant and ready for growth.

What you’ll be doing

· Preparing accurate monthly management accounts, including variance analysis against budget and forecasts

· Owning sales ledger activities such as invoicing, credit control and debt collection

· Running purchase ledger processes, including supplier payments and account reconciliation

· Maintaining accurate financial records including bank recs, accruals, prepayments and journals

· Supporting the preparation of budgets and forecasts, keeping our financial models clean and current

· Processing payroll and reconciling payroll-related accounts

· Preparing and submitting VAT returns and supporting external audit and statutory reporting

· Looking after our financial reporting systems including data integrity, reporting consistency, dashboard accuracy

· Maintaining robust controls over licensing stock, with accurate tracking and reconciliation to financial records

· Liaising with external accountants, auditors and tax advisers to keep us compliant

About You

You’re a finance professional who thrives in a small, fast-moving team where you can see the impact of your work. You like detail, but you can zoom out and translate numbers into something useful for non-finance people. You’re self-directed, organised, and happy rolling your sleeves up across the full finance remit.

You’ll likely bring:

· ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified, part-qualified and actively studying, or Qualified by Experience (QBE) with demonstrable experience in a similar Finance Manager role

· Experience in a finance function within an SME, start-up or high-growth business

· A track record of producing management accounts and financial reporting

· Hands-on experience running core finance processes including payroll, VAT and ledger management.

· Strong Excel skills and confidence across our core tool stack, Xero, Notion and Google Workspace, with a genuine interest in using AI and automation to make finance processes faster and smarter

· Excellent attention to detail, strong organisational skills, and the ability to translate financial data into clear insights

· A confident, plain-language communication style, comfortable working with internal stakeholders and external advisors alike

A growth mindset is essential. We’re a small, close team, so you’ll be someone who works in a self-directed but collaborative way, brings positive energy, and is genuinely up for the ride. An interest in accessibility and advocating for disabled individuals is a big plus.

What We Offer

· 9-day fortnight - every second Friday off. A major benefit that we all love

· Remote working - work from home, or a co-working space. What matters is that you do your best work

· Flexibility - core hours flexi system so you can organise your day around what works for you

· EMI options - the hard work comes from everyone, so we want the whole team to share in the success

· Home working budget - £150 towards your home office set-up

· Assistive technology - we mean what we say about accessibility, and we’ll set you up with the tools you need

· Socials - quarterly in-person get-togethers with a team committed to making real impact through tech for good (and having a laugh along the way).
