FP&A Lead

Let’s fix hospitality, for good.

Hospitality is tough – margins are thin, waste is high, and teams are stretched. But it doesn’t have to be this hard. That’s why we built Nory.

Our CEO, Conor, knows the pain first-hand. After founding and scaling Mad Egg in Ireland, he got fed up with juggling “market-leading” systems, clunky spreadsheets, and endless printouts. So he set out to build the tool he wished he’d had from day one.

Nory is an all-knowing restaurant management system. It blends real-time data with AI predictive analytics, giving operators control of their margins. From food prep to forecasting, it’s operational intelligence that helps restaurants run with consistency, certainty, and profit. The result? Thriving restaurants, better jobs, less waste, healthier margins.

And we’re just getting started. Fresh off a Series B led by Kinnevik, we’ve grown to 120+ people across Ireland, the UK, Spain and New York – and demand is scaling faster than we ever imagined.

The role:

We’re looking for an FP&A Lead to join our growing Finance and Operations team. This is a founding seat: you’ll own and build Nory’s FP&A function end to end, turning our plans and numbers into the decisions that power our next stage of growth, including getting us ready for our next raise.

You’ll be hands-on with no direct reports to start, and you’ll have the chance to build the team as we grow. If you want to build the models and also lead the conversations they feed into, this is the role. You’ll report to our VP of Finance, who has a deep FP&A background and’ll be a sounding board and strong support, but this is your function to drive.

This role is based in our London office on a hybrid basis, and you’ll need the right to work in the UK.

What you’ll be doing:

• Own the planning cycle: Lead the annual budget, reforecasts and long-range plan, from building the model through to sign-off with the exec team and board.

• Run performance reporting: Deliver clear, timely monthly management reporting and board packs, with commentary that explains what happened, why, and what we should do next.

• Partner with the business: Work with leaders across Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, People, Product and Engineering to set targets, track KPIs and make smart trade-offs on headcount and spend.

• Own the metrics that matter: Be the source of truth for our core SaaS metrics (ARR, net revenue retention, CAC payback, burn and runway) so everyone trusts the numbers.

• Support the big decisions: Build the models and analysis behind fundraising, pricing, new-market expansion and other strategic bets.

• Scale the function: Improve our tools, data and processes so FP&A keeps pace as Nory grows, and help shape the team over time.

What you’ll bring:

• Hands-on FP&A experience: FP&A or strategic finance in a start-up or scale-up, ideally a high-growth SaaS or tech business. You don’t need an accounting qualification, but you do need to know accounting principles well.

• Modelling you’ve built yourself: You’ve built driver-based, three-statement models from scratch that others rely on, not just maintained someone else’s. Excel or Google Sheets is a must, and SQL is a bonus.

• Planning ownership: You’ve run budgeting and forecasting cycles yourself, or owned major parts of them and are ready to lead the whole thing.

• Commercial judgement: You lead with the “so what”. You form a clear point of view and can point to decisions your analysis has changed.

• Influence at senior level: You’re comfortable debating numbers and trade-offs with senior leaders, including the harder conversations. You explain complex financials simply, whether you’re talking to a team lead or the board.

• Startup mindset: You thrive in fast-paced environments, move quickly and are comfortable with ambiguity. You’d rather ship a good-enough forecast today than a perfect one next month.

• Drive to build: You’ve simplified and automated messy reporting, and you use AI and automation in your own work day to day.

If you’re excited by what we’re building, we’d love to hear from you, even if you don’t tick every box!
