About Spotted Zebra

At Spotted Zebra , we're building something we genuinely believe in: an AI-native end-to-end hiring platform that helps the world's leading organisations find the right people, faster and fairer than ever before. In short, we're making hiring something everyone loves again - both talent teams and candidates alike.

What we do

Spotted Zebra brings Interview Intelligence , Skills Assessment s, and AI Interview Agent together in one powerful platform, designed for intelligence and action. One powerful agent and assistant: Spot. Working the way talent teams need it to, always with humans in control.

The result is talent teams get the insight to predict who will succeed, the speed to move before competitors, the governance to defend every hiring decision, and the capacity to focus on the human moments that matter most.

But our product is only part of the story. Spotted Zebra isn’t just building an AI-native product; we’re building an AI-native company. AI is changing how we build, sell, support customers and make decisions. We use it to move faster, stay closer to customers, reduce unnecessary processes, and give talented people more leverage in their roles.

That means joining Spotted Zebra isn’t just a chance to work on the future of hiring. It’s a chance to help shape what the future of work looks like inside a scaling company: compact, ambitious teams using AI to collaborate better, make decisions quickly, and deliver meaningful impact at speed.

The FTSE100 and Fortune500 companies trusting us include British Airways, NIQ, Domino's, Lidl, Merlin Entertainments, AWE, United Utilities, and Paramount. We've been named Personnel Today's Talent Acquisition Supplier of the Year 2025 , secured gold across multiple industry awards, and were recently named on the UK Top 100 Startups List .

But what we’re most proud of is the team. People join Spotted Zebra because the mission is real, the product is genuinely exciting, and the opportunity to shape the future of hiring is huge. What makes it special is the way we work: smart, committed people in compact teams where trust is high, decisions happen quickly, and everyone has the chance to make a visible impact.

If that sounds like the kind of place you want to do your best work - read on.

The dazzle continuously moves, gaining knowledge and skills so that we can graze new grounds.
About the role

Spotted Zebra is growing quickly. With more customers, a larger team and more complex decisions, finance now needs to become a stronger part of how we run and scale the business.

We are looking for a part-time Financial Controller to take on that responsibility, working around two days per week and reporting directly to our CEO. This is a broad and visible role, giving our leadership team and board a clear, trusted view of performance, cash and risk, and helping us make confident decisions.

We already have an outsourced finance partner, established processes and financial models that have supported us to this point. The opportunity now is to build on that foundation, updating and adapting our finance systems, models, controls and processes to reflect where the business is today and where it is going next.

You will bring our accounts, cash flow, budgets and forecasts into a single reliable view of the business, turning the numbers in
