Job Description

In a nutshell, we're all about making the world of wine a better place. We fund and source directly from independent winemakers to bring customers better quality wine for a better price. No thirsty middlemen as far as the eye can see.


It's a different way of doing things, sure. But it works. We're one of the UK's favourite wine clubs, shipping over 1 million (!) cases a year to curious wine lovers. And with an ambitious road ahead, we've got no plans on plugging the cork on growth.


Our global team (we have offices in the US and Australia, too) is entrepreneurial by nature, obsessive about customer experience and driven by performance. All things that make Naked a great place to grow both personally and professionally. And yes, we like wine. A lot.


It takes a village to be Naked and now, our Finance Team are looking for a hands-on Internal Audit & Assurance Specialist to help strengthen our internal audit and risk management across Naked Wines. You'll work closely with our Head of Internal Audit to deliver key assurance projects, map and test controls, and make practical, data-driven recommendations that keep us on the right track as we grow.


This is a broad and varied role where you'll get to see all corners of the business -- from finance and operations to our international teams in the US, UK, and beyond. You'll be part of a small, agile team with plenty of room to shape how we do things and make a real difference.
