We are 100 people across London Palo Alto and New York with rapid growth expectations to hundreds.

We are making our first dedicated FP&A hire: an FP&A Manager to own short-range forecasting variance analysis and accounting-grounded financial modeling across a multi-entity multi-currency group operating at both corporate and SPV level.

Reporting to the VP of Accounting this is a hands-on builder role: you will design the forecasting and reporting cadence from scratch in an environment where capital deployment is large fast and lumpy data center build-outs GPU procurement colocation deployments and project financing.

This is not a classic long-range planning seat. The emphasis is on near-term accuracy: rolling 13-week cash forecasting in-quarter and quarterly reforecasts burn management and models that reconcile cleanly to the general ledger and to US GAAP accounting positions.

• Own the rolling 13-week cash flow forecast across all group entities and currencies (GBP USD EUR NOK) including AP outflows payroll project payments and intercompany funding

• Run a monthly and quarterly P&L reforecast cycle covering opex capex headcount and cash runway with clear bridges to the prior forecast

• Produce consolidated cash and burn reporting for the VP of Accounting CFO board and investors and manage runway scenarios against the funding plan

• Deliver monthly actuals-vs-forecast and actuals-vs-budget variance analysis at entity department and project level with root-cause commentary

• Track project-level cost variances on data center deployments against approved budgets and purchase commitments

• Build and maintain the groups operating and financial model on a US GAAP basis consistent with the groups technical accounting positions (capitalization policy ASC 842 lease accounting project-finance debt share-based compensation)

• Model the P&L balance sheet and cash flow impacts of major transactions: site acquisitions colocation and lease commitments GPU financing debt drawdowns and equity events

• Establish variance thresholds escalation routes and reporting formats that will stand up as SOX-adjacent management review controls

• Define the FP&A calendar templates and data model and contribute to ERP design during the NetSuite implementation

• Qualified accountant (ACA ACCA CIMA or equivalent) or equivalent depth in US GAAP-based modeling this role requires genuine accounting fluency not just spreadsheet fluency

• 5 years in FP&A with demonstrable ownership of short-range cash forecasting and variance analysis in a capital-intensive or high-burn environment

• Experience in multi-entity multi-currency groups; comfort with intercompany flows and FX in forecasting

• Strong grasp of accrual accounting mechanics: able to build a three-statement model that ties to the trial balance and explain timing versus rate versus volume variances

• Advanced Excel; experience with leading ERPs is strongly preferred

• Comfort with ambiguity and zero-to-one process building; you write clearly and present numbers that go to the board without rework

• Data center infrastructure energy or other project-finance-heavy sector experience

• Exposure to SOX 404 environments or IPO/listing readiness

• Familiarity with ASC 842 ASC 718 or capitalization of infrastructure assets

• Experience forecasting in pre-revenue or early-revenue companies
