About TAINA
TAINA Technology is a multi-award-winning RegTech company serving some of the world's largest financial institutions, Big 4 firms, and fund administrators.
TAINA has been pioneering the use of AI in RegTech for over a decade and is now rolling out the world's first Agentic AI Platform for Tax Operations.
As a venture-backed technology company with leading global financial institutions as both clients and investors, TAINA operates at the intersection of artificial intelligence, tax technology, governance, risk and regulatory compliance.
Role Description
This is a permanent, ongoing Fractional Chief Financial Officer position, providing strategic financial leadership to TAINA on a part-time basis with fully flexible remote working.
The role is ideal for an experienced CFO who enjoys partnering closely with founders and executive teams, helping high-growth technology businesses scale while maintaining financial discipline, strong governance and effective financial controls.
Reporting directly to the CEO and working closely with the Board, investors and senior leadership team, the Fractional CFO will be responsible for TAINA's financial strategy, planning, reporting, forecasting and financial governance, whilst acting as a trusted adviser on business performance, growth initiatives and financial decision-making.
TAINA is seeking a commercially minded finance leader with proven experience operating within venture-backed technology businesses and interacting regularly with institutional investors, boards and senior stakeholders.
This is an ongoing appointment rather than an interim assignment and is intended to provide long-term strategic financial support to the business on a fractional basis.
The role does not have direct responsibility for the day-to-day leadership of business operations. Whilst the successful candidate will contribute to discussions relating to governance, risk, commercial decision-making and organisational growth, ownership of operational performance and business functions sits outside the remit of this position.

Candidate Profile
We are seeking an experienced CFO who combines strong financial expertise with commercial acumen, strategic thinking and a practical, hands-on approach.
The ideal candidate will have experience supporting founder-led, venture-backed technology companies and will be comfortable acting as a trusted adviser to both the CEO and Board.
Whilst the primary focus of the role is finance, the successful candidate will be comfortable contributing to broader discussions relating to governance, risk management, commercial strategy and organisational growth. However, this is fundamentally a finance leadership role rather than an operational leadership position.

- Experience working within SaaS, RegTech, FinTech or AI-driven technology organisations is highly desirable.
- Strong expertise in financial planning, forecasting, budgeting and scenario modelling.

- Strong knowledge of financial reporting, UK GAAP, IFRS and internal control frameworks.
- Experience overseeing cashflow management, funding strategies and capital planning.
- Familiarity with governance, compliance, risk management and scaling high-growth businesses.
- Professional qualification such as ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent.
- Excellent communication, stakeholder management and influencing skills.
