We’re building experiences that wow our customers – and that starts with bold, curious people who want to do work that matters.

If you’re hungry to grow, excited by impact and ready for a challenge that will supercharge your career, this could be your moment.

As our Capitalisation Analyst, you’ll play a key role in delivering a robust and compliant software capitalisation process, working closely with Finance and Technology teams. You’ll get hands-on with CapEx governance, time-tracking compliance, cost validation, reporting, and stakeholder training. Your drive and ideas will help us improve controls, strengthen compliance, and maximise the value of our software investments.

What you’ll do

You’ll take ownership of work that gives us our competitive edge, including:

CapEx Process Ownership & Monitoring

• Own and continuously improve the group's software capitalisation process, ensuring alignment with IAS 38 recognition criteria (identifiability, control, probable future economic benefits, and reliable measurement of cost).

• Monitor development team time-logging to ensure hours are accurately and consistently recorded against the correct projects, epics, and work types (CapEx vs OpEx).

• Review project and ticket-level data to verify that capitalised time relates to the development phase of qualifying projects, and that research-phase, maintenance, bug-fix, and support activities are correctly expensed.

• Perform periodic sample testing and reconciliations between time-tracking data, project management systems, and the general ledger.

• Track project lifecycle stages (research vs development, technical feasibility, launch/go-live) to determine when capitalisation should commence and cease, and when amortisation should begin.

• Work with finance to ascertain and to document why projects are capitalizable.

Finance Partnership

• Work closely with the finance team on month-end and year-end close: preparing or reviewing capitalisation journals, work-in-progress schedules, and useful economic life assessments.

• Support impairment reviews and amortisation calculations for capitalised development assets.

• Provide analysis and reporting on capitalised development spend by entity, project, and team, supporting budgeting, forecasting, and transfer pricing requirements across group entities.

• Act as a key contact for external auditors on software capitalisation, providing documentation, evidencing judgements, and supporting audit walkthroughs of the CapEx process.

Development Team Engagement, Training & Onboarding

• Design and deliver training for developers, engineering leads, and project managers on the capitalisation process, time-logging requirements, and the distinction between capitalisable and non-capitalisable activities.

• Own the CapEx onboarding module for new developers joining the business, ensuring every new joiner understands how and why to log time correctly from day one.

• Produce and maintain clear, accessible guidance materials (process documentation, quick-reference guides, FAQs, decision trees for CapEx/OpEx classification).

• Act as the first point of contact for development teams with questions on time-logging, project setup, and classification.

Systems & Data

• Work with project management and engineering tooling (Jira / Atlassian suite) to ensure projects, epics, and work types are structured to support accurate CapEx tracking (e.g. labels, components, work-type fields, and dashboards).

• Collaborate with HR/finance systems teams (e.g. Workday) to ensure time-tracking, cost-centre, and headcount data flows correctly into capitalisation calculations.

• Build and maintain dashboards and exception reports to identify missing, late, or misclassified time entries, and follow up with teams to resolve them.

• Identify opportunities to automate and streamline the capture and reporting of capitalisable time.

Governance & Continuous Improvement

• Maintain the group's capitalisation policy and ensure it is applied consistently across all development entities and locations.

• Escalate risks, inconsistencies, or judgement areas to finance leadership with clear recommendations.

• Keep abreast of developments in IFRS relevant to intangible assets and software development costs, and assess their impact on the group's process.

This list covers your core responsibilities – with plenty of room to stretch, explore and take on new challenges as we grow.
