Prize draw-based fundraising platform for charity
Who We Are:
At Omaze, we give our community in the UK and Germany the chance to win luxury homes and other life-changing prizes — all while raising money for the causes they love.
Thanks to our Omaze Community, we’ve raised over £150 million for UK charities in just five years. That’s millions helping organisations like Age UK, the RSPCA, British Heart Foundation and Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity deliver life-saving work.
And the best part? We’re only just getting started. Omaze is building a business and culture committed to growth and creating significant social impact on a global scale.
We’re looking for an experienced, hands-on accounting and finance leader to provide maternity cover of 14 months during a period of continued business development and finance transformation.
This is a broad role combining financial reporting, month-end delivery, cash and debt-facility reporting, corporate governance support and finance-systems ownership. You’ll work closely with the CFO, Finance and Accounting colleagues, business leaders and external advisers to maintain reliable reporting, effective controls and continuity across key workstreams.
You’ll be equally comfortable reviewing accounting entries, explaining budget variances, coordinating an audit and resolving a NetSuite reporting or access issue. Success will mean keeping essential processes running smoothly while progressing agreed improvements and making risks, decisions and dependencies visible.
Month-end close, consolidated reporting and board-reporting inputs are delivered accurately and on time.
Lender reporting and compliance requirements are met, with clear oversight of deadlines and dependencies.
Budget holders receive useful analysis and timely support.
Audit and adviser workstreams progress with clear ownership and well-organised evidence.
Finance systems remain reliable, and agreed implementation and reporting improvements continue.
Responsibilities, decisions and outstanding matters are documented to support a smooth handover back.
Coordinate audit delivery, acting as a central contact for auditors and internal stakeholders and tracking evidence requests, issues and deadlines.
Draft consolidated and entity level financial statements along with relevant footnote disclosures under IFRS and US GAAP.

Support corporate governance processes and associated financial documentation and reporting.
Support the CFO with Senior Accounting Officer (SAO) and Corporate Criminal Offence (CCO) workstreams, including documentation, information gathering and follow-through on agreed actions.
Coordinate accounting advisory workstreams, ensuring clear briefs, ownership, timely responses and resolution of outstanding matters.
Ad hoc technical accounting assessments, documenting agreed conclusions and supporting implementation.
Deliver assigned month-end close activities, including intercompany eliminations, and coordinate with entity accounting teams.
Prepare and coordinate consolidated monthly financial reporting under US GAAP and IFRS, ensuring completeness, consistency and clear explanations of significant movements.
Review assigned journals, reconciliations and intercompany activity, resolving issues with the relevant preparers and reviewers.
Maintain close timetables, support the resolution of blockers and ensure appropriate documentation and review evidence.
Support the preparation and validation of financial actuals and analysis for board reporting.

Coordinate corporate, office and other insurance matters, working with brokers, Legal and business owners on renewals, coverage questions, policy changes and emerging requirements.
Maintain clear records of outstanding actions, approvals and responsibilities across both workstreams.
Act as the day-to-day Netsuite administrator, covering month-end requirements, ongoing maintenance, user access, configuration and issue resolution.
Facilitate work with external Netsuite support partners, prioritising requests and coordinating delivery, testing and implementation.
Develop and maintain Netsuite reporting for Finance, including reports and saved searches that improve visibility and reduce manual work.
Administer and maintain Netsuite Account Reconciliation system, including period roll-forwards, assignments and troubleshooting.
Coordinate monthly, quarterly, and annual reporting, certificates, utilisation requests and other required submissions, including event-triggered reporting.

DEI Statement
We actively seek out diversity of thought and experience to drive innovation. We welcome all backgrounds, identities, and perspectives and work hard to ensure that every Omaze employee can bring their authentic self to work at all times.
Omaze is a for-profit platform that raises funds for non-profit organizations by running prize-draw campaigns. Donors buy entries for chances to win high-value prizes such as multi-million-pound houses, luxury cars, or cash, and a portion of the proceeds goes to charity. The product works by offering video-led campaigns and direct-to-consumer entries; in the UK, Omaze guarantees at least £1 million in donations per campaign, with about 17% of total sales allocated to the charity partner while the rest covers prizes, marketing, operations, and profit. Unlike typical charity fundraising, Omaze takes on the financial risk of purchasing prizes upfront and operates as a social-enterprise-like business model, having shifted its focus from celebrity experiences to the Million Pound House Draw and expanding into the UK and Germany. Its goal is to engage a broad audience in philanthropy, generate significant charitable giving, and broaden access to charitable experiences through prize draws.
