Job Description

Let's fix hospitality, for good.

------------------------------------


We're on a mission to help the hospitality industry double its profitability, reduce its carbon footprint, and create better working environments for its teams.


Our CEO, Conor, founded and scaled Mad Egg - one of the fastest-growing restaurant groups in Ireland. After years of juggling "market-leading" systems, spreadsheets, and paper printouts, he set out to build the solution he wished he had from day one: Nory.


Nory is an all-knowing restaurant management system. It combines real-time data with AI predictive analytics to help restaurants operate with consistency, certainty and profitability. From food prep to forecasting, Nory puts operators in control of their margins.


Now, with demand growing faster than we imagined - and a recent Series A led by Accel - we're scaling fast. We've grown to a team of 50+ across Ireland, the UK and Spain, and we're just getting started.


We're now looking for our first

Head of Finance

to join the Operations Team and help power our next chapter of growth - from international expansion to preparing for Series B. You'll work directly with our CEO to move finance in-house, level up visibility, and bring the tools and clarity needed to scale with confidence. It's a hands-on role that balances day-to-day financial operations with high-impact strategic projects.



Please note this role can be based in Dublin or London.

What you'll be doing:

-------------------------

Own core finance operations:

Lead AP, AR, payroll (ROI & UK), cashflow, internal reporting, and tax (with advisors).

Build financial discipline:

Link budgets and spend to clear ROI; implement budget vs actuals tracking and performance reviews.

Scale systems and processes:

Design scalable workflows and implement the right tech stack (e.g. Xero, Pleo, forecasting tools).

Improve financial visibility:

Deliver timely, accurate, and actionable reporting for the CEO, SLT, and investors.

Strengthen compliance & controls:

Proactively manage planning, tax, and compliance; audit existing vendor/tax setups.

Partner cross-functionally:

Support monthly forecasting, reporting, and decision-making alongside SLT leads.

What you'll bring

---------------------

Growth-stage finance experience:

5+ years in fast-paced, hands-on finance roles (ideally in B2B SaaS or tech scale-ups). You've owned FP&A, budgeting, cashflow, internal controls, and investor reporting end-to-end and have experience scaling finance functions during a Series B-D stage.

FinanceOps Expertise:

You've run AP/AR, payroll, and worked closely with tax advisors. You're experienced with tools like Xero, Pleo, and know how to build or improve finance systems for scale.

Analytical and structured:

Strong Excel/Sheets skills, comfortable with BI tools, and obsessive about accuracy and clarity. You bring structure, meet deadlines, and drive better decisions through data.

Strategic yet hands-on:

You think big-picture but aren't afraid to get into the weeds, especially in the early months. You can move from board-level forecasting to fixing a broken invoice flow in a heartbeat.

Bias for action:

You move fast, iterate, and prioritise progress over perfection -- without sacrificing quality.

Nice-to-haves:

A formal accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) Experience managing cross-border payroll and optimising tax structures Exposure to investor reporting / VC communication

If you're excited by what we're building, we'd love to hear from you, even if you don't tick every box!
