About Novabook
Novabook is the future of accounting. We have a software engineering team automating day to day accounting processes, whilst we have an amazing team of the best accountants managing client relationships & delivery to create the best outcomes for clients. Our team previously founded, scaled and sold a technology company for $50M and we plan to 100x this at Novabook.
Why join us?
We are a small, rapidly growing team of 50 people at the moment (18 people in the engineering & product team, 6 people in the sales & marketing team). Our first venture together was senecalearning.com, which scaled to 12M users and a successful acquisition in 2022.
After launching in May 2024, we already have 1000+ clients, millions in ARR and are growing quickly, this is an opportunity to join the ride at an early stage. We’ve raised over £10M in capital to scale Novabook.
Novabook was born out of our personal experiences with the shortcomings of traditional accountancy practices while running Seneca. After dealing with inefficient software and unreliable accountancies for 8 years, we believe it's time to tackle these challenges head-on.
Culture
We are well-funded but the hardest period of a start-up is always the first couple of years, when the team is small, and you are heavily relied on personally. But this also exposes you to the most interesting period of a company’s lifecycle and also the period where you can learn the most & earn the most material rewards. You won’t be expected to work evenings & weekends, but you will be expected to work hard when on the job.
About the role
We're expanding our US tax offering and are looking for someone to lead Federal filings end to end. We currently work with a network of CPAs and would want you to build processes, quality assure work and build out our own function over time. The majority of our customer base are Delaware TopCos with a UK subsidiary.
You'll be the go-to technical person on US tax in the business, working directly with our CEO and accounting team. You’ll also work directly with our engineering and product teams to automate the parts of the process you and the team encounter.
