Finance Assistant

Since launching the world’s first portable wood-pellet pizza oven in 2012, Ooni has grown into an award-winning, multinational company with a product range loved by home cooks all over the globe. Our mission has always been to design innovative products that spark joy in our customers, and whilst we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, we’re only just getting started. 

As part of our plans, we’re looking for a Finance Assistant to join our team in Edinburgh.

This is a hybrid role, working 2 days per week from our office in Edinburgh, Scotland. We are also open to a part time working pattern for this ​position.

What you’ll do:

• Be our Finance Assistant! Progress your career in finance / accounting / Excel-ing / being paid to be generally awesome with the Ooni Finance team.
• You’ll be doing the finance assistanty things that are on every finance assistant job spec. Bank recs, accounts receivable and processing payables… This is a role you can grow into as your brainy brain sponges up all those wonderful finance knowledge juices. Which is admittedly an odd and unsettling image. Sorry.
• The role is a bit of a mixed bag. Some days you'll just have to get your head down and batter into some bank recs with zen-like focus and determination. Other days you'll be picking up some project work with our Group Finance Manager, or helping our Accounts Payable Finance Assistant with supplier invoicing. You've got to be flexible and roll with the punches (not literally - the flexing or the punching).
• Just because you don't have 20 years' experience in finance doesn't mean you can't have good ideas. In fact, it probably means you have great ideas. We want your keen-bean-shiny-fresh eyes to help hone our processes to make them super slick and efficient and effective. We'll always hear you out if you think something could be done better.

Essential Skills and Experience:

• Previous experience in a finance function. You should know your debits from your credits.
• You have a hawk-like eye for detail and porcupine-like passion for process.
• You're dedicated, focused and willing to learn.
• You’re ready to get cracking with AI (that’s an upper case i, not a lower case L) to automate and improve. We’re currently having lots of fun with Claude and Gemini.
• You can really get on board with our values. Especially Rigour for this job. And even more especially Passion. Actually, especially all of them. They’re all important.

Why Ooni?
When you join one of our global teams, you’re joining a dedicated group of do-ers who value Kindness, Passion, Innovation, Ambition and Rigor above all else.  We live, work and play by these values and are proud of what we’ve built here. As a member of our team, you will also receive the following:

• Work for an employer that cares about your well-being! We’ve got private healthcare through Bupa as well as access to on-demand coaching and therapy sessions via BetterHelp
• £500 to spend on Ooni products each year, plus 50% discount on any other Ooni products.
• £500 every year to spend on your passion – whatever that may be.
• 35 days of paid time off per year, plus an additional 5 week sabbatical when you’ve been here for 5 years.
• Access to an employee assistance programme which includes on demand coaching.
• We believe in giving back to our communities, which is why we offer every team member five paid volunteer days each year to support causes they care about.

Having a fantastic culture is really important to all of us at Ooni. We work hard to make it diverse and inclusive, and want everyone to have access to the same opportunities.
