* Engage with external stakeholders (auditors, banks, insurers, investors) on funding and compliance matters.
* Oversee the finance function including AP, AR, payroll (UK/EMEA), invoicing, and ledger processes.
* Ensure full regulatory compliance, including statutory filings, tax, and audit readiness.
* Manage and mitigate financial and operational risk, including insurance and contractual oversight.
* Provide hands-on business support including POs, payroll submissions, and spend tracking.
