OLIX - Financial Controller
Requirements
• Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent), ideally trained at a Big Four, now looking for a hands-on role in a fast-scaling business. • High horsepower and high energy: sharp, quick to learn, and able to reason to the right answer from first principles rather than lean on an established playbook. For us, attitude and raw ability matter more than years spent in one niche. • Strong technical accounting foundations and a high bar for accuracy and control. • Comfortable being hands-on in a small, flat team, owning your work end to end with limited support and infrastructure around you. • Fluent in today’s relevant accounting standards (IFRS / UK GAAP), and keen to learn more. We will be a global company with operations in many countries. • Keen to build: you want to help stand up a finance function and grow with it, not run a mature one on autopilot. • Exposure to a manufacturing operation or physical supply chain. This matters more to us than chip- or hardware-specific knowledge, which you can pick up here. • Scale-up experience: you've seen a business grow quickly and know what "good" looks like without needing a big-company process. • Working awareness of US GAAP given our US production footprint (useful, not essential). • Experience supporting an ERP implementation, or standing up finance processes from scratch. • Semiconductor, hardware, automotive, or advanced-manufacturing background (Tesla, SpaceX, chip manufacturers, or similar are a plus).
Responsibilities
• Own the day-to-day running of financial operations (AP), month-end close, reconciliations, and the management and statutory reporting that keep the business in control as it scales. • Prepare accurate, reliable numbers across the business - covering all production activities, accounts payable, payroll, capital, share options, transfer pricing, taxes, and more. • Support the selection, implementation, and running of our core finance systems (ERP and supporting tooling), helping build lightweight, fit-for-purpose processes. • Help establish audit-ready controls and processes from the ground up, and lead our external audit. • Partner with our engineering and manufacturing teams to ensure production data flows through cleanly into accounting, controlled, and is both reportable. • Provide the clean, reliable data foundation that the FP&A and commercial side of finance depends on. • Take on broader ownership over time as the finance function, and your remit, grow.
Benefits
• Competitive Salary: Commensurate with your experience, skills, and location • Equity & Ownership: Meaningful stock options. You’re not just joining the mission; you’re owning a piece of it • Proximity Bonus: We value your time. To minimise your commute and maximise your life, we offer an annual Living-Local Bonus if your residence is within 20 minutes of the office • Retirement Benefits: Employer-contributed retirement plans to help you build long-term financial security • Due to U.S. export control regulations, candidates’ eligibility to work at OLIX depends on their most recent citizenship or permanent residency status. We are generally unable to consider applicants whose most recent citizenship or permanent residence is in certain restricted countries (currently including Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Russia, Belarus, China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Venezuela). Applicants who have subsequently obtained citizenship or permanent residency in another country not subject to these restrictions may still be eligible.
