The opportunity

As our Accountant, you'll join a Finance function with strong foundations already in place, working closely with our Finance Director/Financial Controller and Senior Accountant to keep the engine room running well. This is a generalist role covering payroll, accounts payable and transactional finance, with real exposure to FP&A and financial analysis along the way.

Reporting to the Financial Controller, you'll take ownership of the processes that keep Atomi's day-to-day finances accurate and efficient, while partnering closely with our People Operations team on payroll and with the business on overhead cost management.

This is a role for someone diligent and astute, who brings genuine attention to detail to their work and enjoys learning about how a scaling edtech business operates.

• Experience in payroll, accounts payable or broader transactional accounting, ideally with exposure to a SaaS, tech or high-growth business.
• Strong attention to detail and a diligent, methodical approach to your work.
• Proficiency in accounting software (Xero) and Google Sheets or Excel.
• Good communication skills, comfortable working cross-functionally with People Operations and other business partners.
• A genuine interest in learning the edtech space and growing into a broader finance generalist role over time.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating well as part of a small, high-performing team.
