About Novabook
Novabook is the “Accountant for Startups” founded by Stephen Wilks & Lukas Feddern. Our team previously founded, scaled and sold a technology company for $50M. We started Novabook to solve the problems we faced during this process. Our aim is to make the financial processes of starting, running and selling a business in the UK easier.
Why join us?
Founded by the team that led Seneca Learning to 12M users and a successful acquisition, Novabook is growing rapidly with a 50-person team and a product spanning payments, open banking, payroll, workflow & automated bookkeeping.
Novabook was born out of our personal experiences with the shortcomings of traditional accountancy practices while running Seneca. After dealing with inefficient software and unreliable accountancies for 8 years, we believe it's time to tackle these challenges head-on.
In addition to having built an 8-figure startup before, our founders have been named on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list and Maserati 100. Our team also has experience working at Morgan Stanley, HSBC, Financial Times, and Forward Partners.
Culture
We are well-funded but the hardest period of a start-up is always the first couple of years, when the team is small, and you are heavily relied on personally. But this also exposes you to the most interesting period of a company’s lifecycle and also the period where you can learn the most & earn the most material rewards. You won’t be expected to work evenings & weekends, but you will be expected to work hard when on the job.
About the role
You will be responsible for working on all things relating to SEIS and EIS at Novabook. You’ll work closely with 100+ or so high-growth UK startups and own how we support tax-efficient fundraising and investor readiness - from structuring through to filings.
You will have continued client interaction, will work with our internal accountants as well as clients and will be managed by the CEO. At the same time, you will work with 18 software engineers using AI to automate the day-to-day workflows that you & your team encounter. You will then be in charge of rolling these out to your teams & clients.
About the application process
The hiring process consists of three steps:
20-minute screening call with Talent Lead
Time-bound task
Final Round Interview
