About TTC Group
TTC Group is a global technology recruitment and consulting business, founded in London in 2019, with entities in the UK, US and India. We place contractors and teams across AI infrastructure, Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP, data, cloud and cybersecurity, with 100+ contractors on assignment and 50+ active clients. With three entities, several currencies and a growing client base, we’re bringing our finance function in-house, and we’re looking for the person to lead it.
The Role
We’re hiring our first Group Finance Manager to own TTC Group’s finances across our UK, US and India entities. You’ll run the month-end close, group consolidation, cashflow forecasting and UK and US compliance, oversee the contractor pay and bill cycle that drives our cash, and lead the move of our finance operations in-house from our outsourced accountants by May 2027.
You’ll report to our Head of Operations, who approves payments and has managed the outsourced accountants to date, and once established you will have the opportunity to hire an offshore team member. Of course, you will also be supported by our external partners, tax advisers and transfer pricing specialists who will stay in place for specialist work.
This is a client-facing role. You’ll join client meetings when we onboard new clients to agree how timesheets, invoicing, purchase orders and payments will work, and you’ll lead escalation calls to follow up overdue debts. There’s no hiding behind the scenes, but you won’t be on your own: our Co-Founders and Head of Operations will work side by side with you.
This role suits a hands-on accountant who has worked in a multi-entity, multi-currency business and wants to build a finance function rather than inherit one.
