Full job description

Abselion is a life science tools company headquartered in Cambridge, UK, working on the next generation of analytical technologies. We have developed a benchtop analytical instrument, called Amperia, which uses proprietary Redox Electrochemical Detection (RED) technology to quantify proteins and viral vectors directly from crude samples in minutes, without purification, and without specialist training.

We work with teams across protein expression, process development and in academia, biotech and pharma across the globe who are tired of waiting days for analytical results that should take minutes.

We are a team who care deeply about the science, move quickly, and believe that the best outcomes come from genuinely understanding and helping customers solve real problems

Role Overview

The VP Finance is a senior, hands-on role responsible for ensuring that the companys financial operations run reliably, accurately, and predictably, while also providing executive operational leverage across the business.

In the first 6 months, the priority is stabilising and upgrading the finance function: close, cash visibility, AR/AP cadence, controls and board reporting, with increasing readiness for audit and future fundraising. Alongside finance, the role takes ownership of a set of executive responsibilities related to commercial operations.

Key Responsibilities

1. Financial Operations

Own the reliable day-to-day execution of the companys finances and ensure financial data is accurate, timely and trustworthy.

Oversee the full accounting cycle in collaboration with external accountants, including reconciliations, month-end close and management accounts.

Invoicing, billing and collections to ensure timely and accurate cash inflow.

Manage banking operations, payment runs and short-term cashflow visibility.

Incrementally improve finance and operational processes, controls and documentation as the company scales.

2. Commercial & Operations Finance

Own and improve end-to-end order-to-cash and procure-to-pay workflows across Commercial, Operations and Finance.

Oversee purchasing workflows, invoice matching and spend control.

Customer orders, delivery confirmation, invoicing and collections.

Work closely with Commercial to ensure ERP and CRM data supports accurate billing, forecastingand reporting.

Support logistics, fulfilment and internal handovers between sales, operations, production and finance.

Identify and resolve friction points in commercial and operational execution.

3. Reporting

Build the financial foundations required for a growing manufacturing and consumables business, with increasing readiness for scale and future investment.

Support inventory, BOMs, COGS and gross margin tracking for instruments and consumables.

Produce budget vs actual analysis, forecasts and cash runway views.

Provide clear finance inputs for board reporting

Prepare and maintain robust financial models, forecasts and scenario analyses to support future fundraising.

Ensure financial data, reporting and processes are audit ready, and coordinate external auditors as required.

Support grants, R&D tax credits and funder reporting where applicable.

4. Executive Operations

Provide operational leverage to the leadership team by owning cross-functional initiatives and corporate administration that sit outside any single functional lead.

Lead set-up and ongoing administration of International subsidiaries, including timelines, budgets, banking and payroll readiness and baseline compliance.

Own the company compliance calendar and corporate housekeeping.

5. Fundraising Readiness

Support fundraising, diligence and investor reporting with high-quality financial materials and narratives.

Maintain an investor-grade financial model, scenarios and use-of-funds planning.

Prepare finance elements of data room and diligence packs and support investor Q&A.

Support equity and option administration readiness in coordination with external specialists where required

Experience & Skills

Essential

Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA) or equivalent hands-on experience.

Significant experience in execution-heavy finance roles (Financial Controller, Head of Finance, Senior Accountant or similar)

Hands-on capability across reconciliations, invoicing, AP/AR, cashflow and month-end close.

Experience operating in a venture-backed start-up or scale-up environment, including board reporting, runway planning and diligence readiness.

Proven ability to run cross-functional operational projects.

Comfortable working closely with operations, production and commercial teams.

Clear communicator with non-finance stakeholders.

Desirable

Experience in manufacturing/cost accounting, hardware or consumables-based businesses.

Exposure to inventory, BOMs, COGS and margin analysis.

Experience supporting order-to-cash and procure-to-pay processes.

Experience supporting grants, funder reporting or R&D tax credits.

Exposure to UK and US cross-border operations is preferred.

Experience supporting fundraising processes and investor diligence.
