Our Mission:

At Sunrise Robotics, we are dedicated to augmenting humanity through intelligent robotics. Our mission is to elevate the world of manufacturing by introducing intelligent, flexible robots that enhance human capabilities and existing machinery, ushering in the next era of production at higher quality, with less waste, and lower cost.

Our Vision:

We see a future where every element of manufacturing, from design to assembly, is optimised with intelligent automation. Our vision is to integrate flexible robotic solutions, based on generic hardware and advanced software/AI capabilities, into manufacturing, particularly in small and medium-sized enterprises, to make automation economically viable and accessible, for all sizes of manufacturers. We are not just building robots; we are creating the strategically crucial components for autonomous, intelligent agents of the future.

The role:

This is our first in-house Financial Controller role, reporting directly to the Head of Finance. You'll own the day-to-day accounting function across our Slovenia, UK, and US entities, drive down month-end turnaround, and help build a finance foundation that can scale with the business.

It's a hands-on, high-ownership role with direct visibility into every part of the company. You'll work closely with the Head of Finance and have a direct line to the leadership team - which means your work matters quickly and the people making decisions will see it.

What you'll do:

• Run month-end close across Slovenia, UK, and US entities, producing accurate, timely management accounts.

• Own group consolidation, inter-company eliminations, and multi-currency adjustments.

• Support tax, statutory, and regulatory filings in coordination with local advisers.

• Define and maintain accounting policies, including fixed assets and lease accounting under IFRS 16.

• Run and automate the accounts payable function.

• Support billing and accounts receivable management.

• Lead the ERP implementation project alongside the Head of Finance - from system selection through to deployment.

What You'll Need:

• Solid accounting and financial skills, built across 6-8 years in a hands-on role - ideally with some exposure to hardware or manufacturing businesses.

• Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to month-end and reporting processes.

• Organised and self-directed, comfortable operating in a lean team where you'll need to manage your own priorities.

• Curious and willing to learn - this is a role that will grow, and so will the finance function around it.

• Comfortable working in Google Sheets and at least one accounting platform (Xero, Sage, or similar).

What Makes You Stand Out:

• Full or partial accounting qualification (ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent).

• Prior experience on an ERP implementation - selection, configuration, or go-live.

• Experience using AI tools to automate or improve finance processes.

Why Us:

We’re building a new category of intelligent, flexible robotic automation with real deployments, real customers, and momentum across Europe.

• Real ownership: You'll run the accounting infrastructure across three entities from day one, not pick up someone else's backlog.

• A project to lead: The ERP implementation is yours to drive - from choosing the right system to getting it live.

• Direct access: You'll work closely with the Head of Finance and have visibility into every part of a business growing quickly across Europe.

• Room to grow: The finance function will scale, and so will this role. If you want to take on more than your title suggests, you'll have the space to do it.
