Job Description

What we are building at Conveo

Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high-quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing, product, and research teams.

#1 What problem are we solving and why is this an important problem to solve

The current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial, thereby limiting the quantity and quality of research companies can conduct. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them.

#2 The team you will join

You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate, high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives. Our team has the combination of decades of market research knowledge, incredible engineering ability, and experience building companies.

#3 How we operate

  • We truly care about our clients and the problem we solve. That means we humbly go the extra mile every time.

  • We work hard and we have fun.

  • To keep our quality bar incredibly high, we want to execute with the smallest possible team.

About the Role

We are winning Fortune 500 clients at warp speed while expanding internationally and growing our team.

As Finance & Strategy Associate, you will work directly with the incoming CFO and as an integral part of the Finance team, helping build and scale the function as Conveo grows — combining hands-on financial operations with the strategic analyses that inform major business decisions and support the company through Series B and beyond.

In this role, you'll start as the operator and guardian of Conveo’s financial model and KPIs, working directly with our CFO and leadership across all divisions. You’ll provide the analysis and financial insight behind significant decisions on capital allocation, revenue and expenses, hiring, and growth. The role comes with a high degree of independence: you’ll be expected to proactively identify what matters, challenge assumptions, and build a deep understanding of every figure behind Conveo’s financial performance.

This role is for a generalist who wants to sit at the intersection of finance and strategy — someone comfortable owning the numbers while helping shape the decisions behind them.

The first months will be predominantly finance-focused, working closely with the CFO to operate, build, and scale the finance function. But the role will not be confined to financial analysis. As Conveo grows, you may work across a broad range of topics, including tax, compliance, fundraising, GTM, internationalisation, strategic projects, and other high-priority business questions.

Over time, the role can evolve toward broader strategic work. How much you lean into these areas will depend on the needs of the business as well as your own aspirations, capabilities, and appetite for ownership.

Your Mission

Make Conveo’s finance function bullet-proof for hypergrowth:

  • Cash & runway mastery — give the company and investors real-time clarity on cash burn and liquidity management, enabling fast and confident decision-making

  • Financial strategy & planning — financial models, hiring plan, scenario analyses, KPI tracking and monitoring

  • Investor & board reporting — own financial reporting for investors, support in future fundraising, and build financial credibility that unlocks Series B

  • Business orchestration — ESOP & commission plans, pricing, deal economics, capital allocation

  • Fundraising — Series B preparation, subsidies, financial due diligence, and possible other ways of financing

The weighting across these areas will shift with business needs and your aspirations over time.

What we're looking for

Must-haves

  • 2–5 years of experience, ideally in investment banking, consulting, PE/VC, or a high-growth startup

  • Model mastery: three-statement modelling, scenario analysis, business cases, and ad-hoc models

  • Strong analytical and communication skills — able to translate numbers into decisions for non-finance stakeholders

  • Unmatched interest in high-growth startups

  • Strong SaaS metrics understanding: ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV, burn multiple / and or consumption-based models

  • Familiarity with accounting

  • Ability to start in September, the earlier the better

  • Willingness and right to work in UK

  • Fluent in English

Mindset

  • Builder — thrives in 0-to-1 environments and creates structure from scratch

  • Low ego — happy to switch between strategic analysis and hands-on ops work

  • Precise — strong eye for detail and numerical accuracy

Bonus

  • Familiarity with Belgian, UK and US accounting

  • Part of Series B or C fundraising and experience with financial DD

  • Some touchpoints with FP&A are a plus but not a necessity

  • Experience with 409A, R&D subsidies, tax administration, transfer pricing

What success looks like

  • Financial model and KPI tracking actively driving decisions

  • Live burn, runway, and KPI dashboard trusted by leadership and investors

  • Financial results as well as board and investor reporting delivered on time

  • Strategic analyses (pricing, hiring, expansion) shaping key calls

  • Conveo financially sound and prepared for Series B

Why join us?

  • Conveo closed its Series A round — with backing from Tier 1 investors

  • Shape finance & strategy from Series A to Series B and beyond

  • Fortune 500 clients with exposure through industry events across the globe

  • Competitive compensation (including equity)

  • Rapidly growing organisation with offices across London, Antwerp, New York, and upcoming cities
