Oakbrook is a UK-based fintech consumer lender, providing unsecured personal
loans to customers across the UK through our proprietary lending platform. We
combine data-driven credit decisioning with institutional funding partnerships
to deliver fair, transparent credit at scale. Our India team plays an integral
role in the group's finance operations, working day-to-day with UK colleagues
across management accounting, financial reporting and structured finance.
THE ROLE:
The Finance Associate is a hands-on role at the centre of Oakbrook's monthly
close and reporting cycle. You will own core finance processing — accounts
payable, payment runs, bank postings and expense processing — alongside
month-end processes including cost centre accounting, accruals and prepayments,
reconciliations and recurring journals, and will deliver a suite of monthly
internal and external reports to fixed deadlines. You will also play an active
part in the team's automation agenda, taking ownership of automated processes as
they go live and identifying further opportunities to reduce manual effort
across the finance function.
This role suits someone who is accurate, deadline-driven and process-minded, and
who wants exposure to a quick-moving fintech finance environment spanning
management accounts, financial reporting and structured funding vehicles.
