About Amodo
Amodo is a hardware engineering company building the 21st century's most important technologies. Our team of mechanical, electronic, firmware, and software engineers works with world-leading startups, universities, governments, and philanthropists to solve pressing technical challenges. We believe in differential technology development: deliberately accelerating safety-enhancing technologies to ensure human flourishing.
We're looking for an Office, Operations and Finance Assistant to provide day-to-day support across core operational areas including inventory management, finance, HR administration, health & safety coordination, and office management. This is an ideal role for someone who is highly organised, proactive and keen to learn, supporting the wider team to keep processes running smoothly and records accurate and up to date. We're open to entry-level applicants and are excited to help you train and develop on the job.
What you'll do
Finance
- Learn to run the monthly billing process – reconcile records, chase missing information, and produce invoices.
- Assist with the admin of processing purchases, keeping records complete and consistent.
- Correspond with accountants, insurers, and other providers.
- Come to understand our systems deeply – how we track project budgets, client contracts and financial flows – and grow into owning them: perform analysis, streamline away inefficiencies and sources of inconsistency, adapt and improve them as we evolve, and develop new processes when they are needed.
General support
- Take ownership of assigned ops tasks and complete them within agreed timelines.
- Act as an initial point of contact for Amodo by answering the intercom, signing in visitors, and receiving phone calls.
Inventory management
- Support goods-in and goods-out processes, including receiving deliveries, booking in stock, and preparing shipments.
- Help maintain a tidy, safe, and well-organised Storage Area.
- Carry out periodic stock checks and assist with stock takes to maintain accurate inventory records.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
HR support
- Support recruitment admin, including arranging interviews, liaising with candidates, and sending outcome communications.
- Assist with onboarding new starters, e.g., ordering equipment, creating new accounts, maintaining staff records, etc.
Health & Safety support
- Help keep health & safety records up to date, including training logs, risk assessments, and workplace safety documentation.
- Act as a First Aider and Fire Marshal (training provided if required).
About you
We value drive, culture fit, and a track record of exceptional achievement above all else, but the competencies, interests, and attributes below are highly desirable:
- Good with numbers – you're comfortable in Excel/Google Sheets, would happily pick up tools like Python, SQL, or R, and you understand what figures mean rather than just where they go. Prior finance or bookkeeping experience is a bonus but not a requirement.
- Unfazed by ambiguity – you can make progress on a problem that isn't fully defined yet, and ask the right question rather than waiting to be told.
- Effective prioritisation – you have clear reasoning about what's important to work on now and what should be left for later, and you're able to update well when business priorities change.
- Great communication and interpersonal skills – whether verbally or in writing, you can clearly and concisely communicate complex decisions and tradeoffs without getting side-tracked or missing important information.
- Proactive, motivated, and helpful – you're excited to have an impact and make a difference, and will always be looking for ways to help.
- Attention to detail and completer-finisher – you notice when the little things aren't quite right, and you're able to consistently see tasks through to 100% complete rather than leaving them mostly done.
- Excited to learn – you're hungry for new skills & knowledge across a wide range of areas.
We are looking for someone who is happy to juggle a wide range of responsibilities, from ownership of our financial bookkeeping to keeping the kitchen well stocked with essentials. You will be working somewhere that is doing genuine good in the world, get to hear about the exciting projects that you're supporting over the lunch table, and get hands-on experience on almost all elements of how a business runs.
