Job Opportunity: Fractional Finance Lead (Part-Time · Remote)
Schedule: Part-Time / Fractional · Remote · UK-aligned Commitment: ~5–6 days per month to start (the first working days of each month for month-end close), scaling to ~9 days as the role grows into ongoing financial oversight
Who We Are
We are a fast-growing Short Let / Airbnb Management company managing a portfolio of high-quality properties across the UK. We are systems-driven and process-focused, and as we scale we want our numbers owned properly — and our external revenue-management partners held to account by someone on our side of the table.
Why This Role Exists
This role exists to bring financial ownership in-house. Right now, month-end and financial oversight are stretched. We're starting with a clean, reliable monthly close and reconciliation — and as trust is built and you get to know our numbers, the role grows into wider financial oversight, including holding our external revenue-management partners to account on our behalf.
What You'll Be Doing
From the start:
Own the month-end close cycle end to end
Reconcile bookings, payouts and channel data; keep Guesty financials accurate
Produce clear, correct owner statements and payout reports
Flag risks, discrepancies and errors in plain English
Growing into (once the close is running smoothly and you know our numbers):
Ongoing financial oversight between closes
Reviewing and challenging the external revenue-management team's decisions on our behalf
Surfacing opportunities, not just problems
Who You Are
Qualified or part-qualified accountant (ACCA / CIMA / CA or local equivalent)
Have independently owned a month-end close and reconciliations
Property management / short-term rental finance exposure a strong plus (owner payouts, channel reconciliation, Guesty or similar PMS)
Comfortable working fractionally and self-directing
Capable of growing into a challenge role — you'll question numbers and partners, not just record them
Tools You'll Use
Guesty · Google Sheets & Docs · ClickUp · Freeagent
What You'll Get
Rate: this is a fractional engagement — please state your day rate, or your expected monthly rate for the ~5–6 day starting commitment when you apply
A role that starts focused and grows in scope (and days) as you prove out
A defined, ownership-level engagement with a growing business
Flexibility of a fractional arrangement
How to Apply
To be considered, please submit all of the following:
Your CV
Your qualification and a summary of month-end closes you've owned
A note on any property-management / STR or Guesty finance experience
Your expected monthly (or day) rate for the ~9-day commitment
Answer this in writing: "You're handed a month of bookings and payouts and the numbers don't tie out. Walk me through how you'd find and resolve the gap — and what you'd question."
