FoodLab is a fast growing B2B business operating in the beverage space. We partner with leading global brands to help bring their product ideas to life, and to support them across ingredients, production, and supply chain execution. As an early stage start-up, we are at a formative stage of growth, scaling both volume and complexity across multiple markets. We now operate production facilities in the UK and the US and work closely with external suppliers, manufacturers, and logistics partners.
About the Role
We are hiring our second Finance team member — a Financial Controller reporting directly to the CEO. This is a rare opportunity to join at a formative stage and build the financial processes, controls, and visibility that will underpin FoodLab’s next phase of growth. You will have real ownership and the chance to make a meaningful mark as the business scales in volume and complexity.

- Build clear cost and margin visibility across products, customers, and markets (UK & US)
- Implement robust processes for POs, invoicing, payments, and reporting
- Monitor costs, inventory movements, and financial performance
- Support budgeting, forecasting, and scenario planning for growth
- Improve financial systems, reporting, and controls as the business scales
- Provide financial insight to support operational and strategic decision‑making
Qualifications
- Experience in a Financial Controller, Management Accountant, or similar role in FMCG, manufacturing, or a fast‑growing business
- Strong understanding of cost accounting, inventory, and margin analysis
- Experience building financial processes in a scaling company
- Strong Excel and financial system skills
- Commercial mindset and ability to work cross‑functionally
- Proactive, hands‑on approach suited to a start‑up environment
Equal Opportunity Statement
FoodLab is committed to diversity and inclusivity in the workplace.
