About Us
We are a hyper-growth Tech startup on a mission to revolutionise student rental. We’re now looking for a Senior Finance Manager to help us on the next stage of our journey. We were formed after our co-founders - Harry and Ben - experienced the pain-points of renting a house while at university, and knew that there had to be a better way.
About Us
We are a hyper-growth Tech startup on a mission to revolutionise student rental. We’re now looking for a Senior Finance Manager to help us on the next stage of our journey. We were formed after our co-founders - Harry and Ben - experienced the pain-points of renting a house while at university, and knew that there had to be a better way.
We're now up and running in four UK cities (growing to 8 in Q3) and have launched in the US. In 2023 we were recognised by Tech Climbers as a rapidly scaling tech company, and we're currently fundraising to fuel our growth even further.
The Role
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Finance Manager to take ownership of our financial operations as we scale. This is a hands-on role that combines technical capability with strategic oversight. You’ll be responsible for reporting, budgeting, forecasting, compliance and cash flow management, making sure our financial foundations are solid as Housr expands globally.
What We’re Looking For
* You’ve led the finance function within a growing SaaS company, tech startup or SME, and know what good looks like at scale.
* You’re a chartered licensed accountant (e.g. ACA, ACCA, CPA or equivalent).
* You ideally have knowledge of US finance processes, tax laws and compliance standards, or a strong willingness to learn.
* You’re not just great with numbers – you communicate clearly, work well with others, and are open to giving and receiving feedback.
* You combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery across reporting, forecasting, and compliance.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
* Financial modelling: Build and maintain robust models that reflect the business and support decision-making.
* Reporting: Prepare and present monthly, quarterly and annual financial statements. Ensure reporting is accurate, timely and useful to both internal stakeholders and investors.
* Budgeting and forecasting: Lead the annual budgeting process and manage ongoing forecasts. Help the business understand performance and plan ahead.
* Financial analysis: Dive into the numbers to identify trends, risks and opportunities. Present clear insights and recommendations.
* Cash flow management: Monitor and forecast cash flow to ensure the business is well-capitalised. Optimise working capital where possible.
* Payroll: Oversee payroll processes and ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.
* Compliance and audit: Maintain high standards of financial governance. Ensure compliance with accounting standards and manage relationships with external auditors.
* Tax: Oversee tax compliance and planning, including international tax matters and supporting R&D tax credit claims.
* EMI & pensions: Administer EMI share option schemes and own pension scheme management to ensure full compliance and employee clarity.
This role may not be right for you if:
* You’re looking for a large team to manage – this is a hands-on position.
* You prefer well-defined processes and a steady pace.
* You’re uncomfortable making decisions without having all the information.
* You’re unable to commit to 4 days in our office in Manchester city centre (close to Spinningfields)
What We Offer
* Salary: £65,000 - £70,000 basic salary
* Share Options: The opportunity to gain from Housr’s success with our Share Options scheme (again, we’re happy to discuss during the interview process)
* Holiday: 25 days off, plus bank holidays each year
* Free Gym Membership: Keep fit, with free use of our on-site gym
* Monthly Team Lunches: At the end of each month, we all grab lunch together as a team, and also have the afternoon off to focus on ourselves
* Company socials: A chance to let our hair down as a team. Past socials have ranged from paintball to ping pong tournaments - we’re quite competitive!
* Central Office Space: Located in the heart of Manchester, and complete with on-site barista
* Hybrid Work Policy : We’re big advocates of in-person collaboration. We’re in the office four days a week, with Thursday as a team-wide work from home day.
Interview Process
* First Stage - Exploratory screening call with our Talent Partner (Matt) (30 mins)
* Second Stage - Video call with our COO (Nick) or CEO (Harry) (45 mins)
* Third Stage - F2F Meeting (including presentation task) with our CEO, COO and Fractional CFO (60-75 mins)
* Offer - If we think it’s a good fit, we’ll make you an offer!
