About VFX

VFX Financial is one of the UK’s fastest-growing FinTechs, helping complex organisations move, manage, and protect money across borders. Built for specialist sectors, multi-jurisdiction structures, and high-compliance environments, we support businesses whose needs go beyond standard banking. We’re selective about who we work with because exceptional service requires focus and commitment.

With six international offices, five regulatory licences, and an 83% CAGR over the past three years, we’re scaling rapidly and earning industry recognition along the way — including the Financial Times FT1000: Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies 2026, CNBC World's Top Fintech Companies 2026, Wealth & Finance FinTech Awards 2026, and the Business Growth Award from Business Awards UK.

Behind it all is a team of ambitious VFXers united by collective ownership, a focus on growth, and a shared passion for solving complex problems.

About the Role

We are looking for a motivated Finance Assistant to join our growing Finance team. This is a hands-on role covering the day-to-day of accounts payable and receivable, payroll preparation, reconciliations, and month-end support. You’ll also get exposure to analysis and ad hoc projects, helping to ensure accuracy and integrity across all financial data.

It’s an excellent opportunity to develop your career in a fast-paced financial services business, gaining experience across the full finance function.

No prior experience is required—just a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn.

Key Responsibilities

  • Process supplier invoices and manage weekly payment runs.
  • Raise client invoices, reconcile payments, and monitor outstanding balances.
  • Perform weekly bank reconciliations, monitor balances, and manage company cards.
  • Support month-end with journals, reconciliations, prepayments, and accruals.
  • Prepare payroll data and assist with submissions via PayFit.
  • Contribute to budget vs actual reports, IB analysis, and expense reporting.
  • Monitor the finance inbox, responding to queries promptly.
  • Support external audits with schedules, reconciliations, and documentation.
  • Maintain the fixed asset register and post depreciation.
  • Support intercompany reconciliations and recharges.
  • Suggest and implement process improvements to build scalable finance operations.

Key Challenges

  • Managing multiple tasks across accounts payable, receivable, and payroll.
  • Maintaining accuracy under time pressure.
  • Balancing routine processes with ad hoc reporting and analysis.

Candidate Profile

Essential Skills & Attributes

  • Degree in Finance, Accounting, Mathematics, Economics, or another relevant discipline (or equivalent experience)
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Hardworking and proactive with a “can do” attitude.
  • Inquisitive and willing to learn.
  • Process-driven, with confidence to suggest and implement improvements.
  • Solid Excel skills (including SUMIFS, pivot tables, lookups).
  • Good communication and interpersonal skills.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Xero (accounting software).
  • Familiarity with PayFit (payroll) and Payhawk (expense management).
  • Exposure to Power BI or data visualisation tools.

Benefits at VFX

We offer more than just perks—we offer ownership.

Our benefits include:

  • Generous Profit Share Plan (PSP)
  • Potential equity opportunities via the Company Share Option Plan (CSOP)
  • Competitive salary
  • Annual all-expenses paid company incentive trip abroad
  • Flexible learning & development budget
  • Office events like Thursday Happy Hour & regular socials

PSP & CSOP Details

At VFX, the biggest benefit is the opportunity to act like an owner. Through our Profit Share Scheme (PSP), every team member has a stake in the business by sharing in the profits.

To show you what that looks like, in 2025, PSP participants received over £1,000,000. Historically, VFX has also offered equity opportunities via Company Share Option Plan (CSOP), where more than 80% of eligible VFXers chose to become shareholders — a powerful reflection of the belief and commitment that drives VFX forward.

If you care about building something meaningful, take pride in your work, and are motivated by impact — you’ll thrive here.

Next Steps

If you are successful, you will be contacted for an initial call with the People Ops Team, followed by a 1st stage technical Teams interview, and culminating with an in-person final stage interview at our London office.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
