We’re hiring a Financial Controller to take ownership of Kyra’s finance function as we prepare for continued growth and a future exit.

  • Partner with leadership to provide financial insight for strategic decision-making, fundraising, and growth initiatives

  • Drive automation and efficiency in finance systems and reporting

  • Support due diligence and readiness for fundraising / exit scenarios

About You
  • Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)

  • 2–5 years post-qualification experience in a high-growth business, ideally SaaS, media, or agency environment

  • Strong technical knowledge across financial control, tax, and compliance

  • Experience operating across multi-entity, multi-market (UK/US) structures

  • Hands-on, detail-oriented, but able to step up into strategic conversations with leadership

  • Excited by working in a fast-paced, creative environment where you’ll need to own and improve processes from scratch

  • High standards of accuracy, rigour, and accountability

What We Offer
  • Flexibility: remote-first team with hubs in London and New York

  • A high-growth environment with the opportunity to make a direct impact

  • Access to Kyra’s perks & wellbeing programme (wellness leave, socials, counselling, eye care, personal development, and more)

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene

Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
