Finance Controller
About the role
Overview
FINANCE OPERATIONS CONTROLLER
We're not hiring a CFO. We're not hiring a spreadsheet builder. We're not hiring someone who needs a team of five to do the work of one.
We need a Finance Operator. Someone who walks into organised chaos, rolls up their sleeves, oversees the right people and processes, and doesn't leave until it's a machine.
ABOUT AI ACQUISITION
AI Acquisition is the global category leader in AI service-provider enablement. We connect AI agencies with enterprise opportunities at scale through a hybrid PaaS and AI marketplace model. We operate across multiple entities, currencies, and geographies. We move fast, we spend big on ads, and our financial infrastructure needs to match the pace of the business.
We are not a 9-to-5 business. We are building something that matters and we need people who build with us.
THE ROLE
This is a hands-on leadership role. You will report directly to and support our Director of Finance, freeing them from the operational grind so they can focus on strategy and growth.
You will inherit a multi-entity structure with real operational complexity: live cash flow pressure, a payment infrastructure in transition, manual processes that need to be automated, and financial data that needs to be turned into clean, actionable systems.
Your mandate is simple: stabilize, systematize, and automate. You will oversee the people and processes that execute this work, and where needed, you will get into the detail yourself.
This role also demands genuine scale experience. We are looking for someone who has operated finance functions with high transaction volume and real operational complexity — not a controlled, low-volume environment — and who naturally approaches problems by building repeatable systems rather than one-off fixes.
