We've already protected over 3 million people through life's big transactions.\nFraud and regulation are rising, costing the UK economy over £100bn every year; this makes it more difficult for businesses to protect themselves and their clients - individuals like you and me - from fraud and money laundering.\nOur co-founders Olly and Jack were led to this area when a friend was defrauded of £25K when buying their first property. At the time, anti-fraud technology didn't exist, which meant that completing the anti-fraud checks required in these processes was largely manual. These big life moments should be exciting, but instead are often confusing and scary due to the painful process of completing these paper-based checks and the risk of fraud.\nThirdfort helps businesses to facilitate these anti-fraud checks so that individuals know they can transact safely and seamlessly with professionals during these big transactions. Our anti-fraud platform provides a secure way for professionals in regulated sectors like Lawyers, Estate Agents and Accountants to transfer funds and verify sensitive information through app-based document checks, facial recognition and open banking.\nOver 1,500 businesses now trust Thirdfort to verify their clients. We are FCA regulated and have raised over $33m in capital from leading Fintech investors Breega and Element Ventures, as well as the founders of Zoopla, Funding Circle, Comply Advantage, Tessian, Fenergo and Fidel.\nWe’re growing fast and doing it sustainably: revenue grew ~25% last financial year, backed by profitable months. Our top-performing business line is up 55% YoY and now accounts for over 10% of revenue.\nThe mission of the role:\nAs Commercial Finance Manager at Thirdfort, your mission is to deliver a robust financial plan and drive performance against it across the business.\nYou’re stepping into a high-functioning environment with a dependable model, an established budgeting process, and a team trusted across the company. Your focus is driving our next phase of maturity: enhancing forecasting accuracy, upgrading board-level insights, deepening our grasp of unit economics, and building out reporting for our acquired business.\nReporting directly to the Head of Finance as our sole dedicated commercial finance role, you'll have real autonomy and a visible impact on decisions. We're looking for someone who pairs strong modelling with genuine curiosity - as comfortable in a 3-statement model as they are sitting with team leads to unpick an operational variance.\nFor this role, we would love this person to be able to join us in our offices a couple of times a week as being together as a team is valuable for us but ultimately, we trust our team to decide what works best for them.\nYou will achieve your mission as our Commercial Finance Manager by:\nFinancial Model Ownership: Own and scale our core financial model, refreshing forecasts and scenario planning monthly so the business always has a clear, current view of where it's heading.\n\nEnd-to-End Budgeting: Drive the annual budget process, partnering with stakeholders across the business.\nLead Partnering: Partner with department leads through a monthly business review cadence, providing spend visibility and actionable guidance to keep the business on target.\nReporting: Own our monthly board reporting pack, building out clean, scalable reporting frameworks as the business evolves.\nAnalytical Partner to the Business: Act as a trusted analytical partner, surfacing the critical numbers that shape company strategy while digging into unit economics, customer trends and KPIs to uncover growth opportunities.\nCommission Strategy: Partner with commercial teams helping to build and roll out commission plans that drive performance and strategic alignment.\nAI & Automation: Use AI tools and modern technology to automate workflows, improve forecast accuracy, and help the function scale efficiently.\nYou may be right for this role if you:\n Bring 3+ years' post-qualified experience (PQE) in FP&A or commercial finance\nHave true modelling ownership, with hands-on experience building and flexing driver-based 3-statement models, forecasts, and scenario analyses.\nLook beyond the numbers to uncover the underlying business drivers, commercial risks, and growth opportunities.\nTranslate complexity into simplicity, delivering clear, simple, and decision-ready guidance to non-finance leads.\nThrive with end-to-end ownership in a fast-moving environment - equally comfortable diving into the granular detail as you are stepping back to help leaders with decision-making.\n“Studies show that women and other less represented groups are less likely to apply for roles unless they meet every requirement. We believe in building a diverse team, valuing different skills and experiences and so if you don’t think you have all the requirements listed here but feel this could be a role and environment you’d thrive in, we would still love for you to apply.\"\nLife at Thirdfort:\nDriven by our values, our culture promotes a collaborative and open environment where Thirdforters can take ownership, have impact, and feel empowered when it comes to their growth and development. We understand the importance of our teams wellbeing and recognise a one-size fits all approach rarely works, that’s why we aim to provide the flexibility individuals need to work in the way that suits them, and their families, best.\nOur Benefits:\nWe’ve created our benefits package to reflect Thirdfort’s mission and values. Everything we do is designed to build on trust, and we extend this promise to our team by investing in their physical, mental, and financial security to support them through life’s big moments. Ultimately, our benefits exist to empower our people, ensuring everyone feels deeply supported, trusted, and equipped to do their best work.\nWhen you join Thirdfort, you’ll get immediate access to our employee benefits package that aims to support you across these areas:\nCompensation - £60-75K p.a. base salary\nFlexible Working Hours\nEnhanced parental leave\nAnnual leave allowance of 26 days, increasing to 30 with tenure and the option to buy additional days\nWork from home allowance\nEnhanced sick leave\nPrivate healthcare with our provider, AXA\nRegular company and team socials\nUncapped budget for personal development\nShare options for all UK employees\nWellness budget\nWe’re committed to building an inclusive, equitable and diverse culture where everyone has a chance to make a difference. We’re purposefully building a team of problem-solvers that reflect our values - which is why we hire from all backgrounds. If you're a curious, kind individual who takes ownership, you'll be a great Thirdforter.\n If you require any reasonable adjustments during the application or interview process, please let your dedicated Talent Partner know and we’ll do our best to accommodate.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6962,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Annual leave","Flexible schedule","Growth opportunities","Parental leave","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Identity Management","RegTech, AML & Compliance"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T17:35:34Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-28T06:26:45+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":16,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.449,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":55,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["conf:1","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":100319,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/thirdfort-commercial-finance-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/thirdfort-commercial-finance-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-28T13:32:31Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":18260,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":172476},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=172476"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fthirdfort-commercial-finance-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fthirdfort-commercial-finance-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fthirdfort-commercial-finance-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/thirdfort-commercial-finance-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fthirdfort-commercial-finance-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2549278}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"thirdfort.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2549278},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
