The Company
Cledara helps businesses take control of their software subscriptions by providing visibility of software spend, cutting excess costs, and streamlining administrative tasks. Our platform allows companies to focus on what matters most: growing their business.
With over 1,300 customers globally, we are recognized as a leader in the SaaS management space. We are proud to announce that in February 2026, G2 named Cledara one of the Best UK Software Companies. This prestigious recognition follows our success in the G2 Winter 2025 Report, where we earned 16 badges for SaaS Spend and SaaS Operations Management. Our high ratings for usability and customer relationships underscore our commitment to a powerful yet user-friendly product.
We are a product-led company with a clear vision and backed by tier-1 investors, including Notion Capital, Nauta Capital, Anthemis, and CommerzVentures. We have a market-leading product with a proven track record and a collaborative team with a high-performance culture. We believe in working hard so we can learn quickly and get better.
The Role
We are looking for a Finance Operations Specialist to join our growing Finance team in Barcelona. This is a hands-on position that will expose you to all the key processes of a high-impact Finance team in a B2B SaaS Fintech startup.
You will take ownership of a broad range of day-to-day finance activities while helping us strengthen processes, controls, reporting and the overall quality of our financial information.
This is not a purely transactional role. As the Finance function evolves, there will be significant opportunities to improve existing processes, automate recurring activities and take on broader responsibilities.
