About The Company
At EatClub, we believe restaurants and bars are the beating heart of every city’s culture. Whether it's discovering a hidden gem, grabbing a late-night takeaway, or meeting friends for a drink, our mission is simple: help the hospitality industry thrive through smart, powerful tech.
Our platform helps over 2 million customers discover top restaurants and access real-time deals that save them up to 50% off the bill. We empower more than 4,000 venues to fill empty tables, increase foot traffic, and maximise revenue.
Recently ranked #11 on the 2025 Deloitte Tech Fast 50! Now is an exciting time to join our team. Initially co-founded by Marco Pierre White and leaders in the food tech scene, we’re now a 150+ person scaleup that’s growing fast and making waves in the industry.
Why You’ll Love Working With Us
You’ll step into a hands-on, strategic finance leadership role in a scale-up environment. Some days you’ll be designing systems and processes that will support growth for years to come; other days you’ll be rolling up your sleeves to solve immediate challenges in payroll, reporting, or compliance.
You’ll be a trusted partner to the CFO, working across finance, operations, and leadership teams to drive business performance. This is a role where your decisions, design choices, and processes will have a direct impact on the company’s growth trajectory.
On Any Given Week, You Will
