CFO | Frontier AI Lab | Series A | London
Package: £275,000 - £350,000 + £150,000 bonus + meaningful equity.
Harmonic are delighted to lead the search for a London-based frontier AI lab that have raised one the largest Series A rounds in UK history.
The Role:
First senior finance hire, reporting to the co-founders. This is a commercial and strategic role, not a reporting one. The company sells something technically complex and capital-intensive, with novel unit economics, and the CFO will be the person who turns that into a financial model, a pricing strategy, and a set of deal structures that actually work. This is the seat if you want to sit at the centre of the business rather than behind it.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
