About Novabook
Novabook is the future of accounting. We have a software engineering team automating day to day accounting processes, whilst we have an amazing team of the best accountants managing client relationships & delivery to create the best outcomes for clients. Our team previously founded, scaled and sold a technology company for $50M and we plan to 100x this at Novabook.
Why join us?
We are a small, rapidly growing team of 50 people at the moment (18 people in the engineering & product team, 6 people in the sales & marketing team). Our first venture together was senecalearning.com, which scaled to 12M users and a successful acquisition in 2022.
After launching in May 2024, we already have 1000+ clients, millions in ARR and are growing quickly, this is an opportunity to join the ride at an early stage. We’ve raised over £10M in capital to scale Novabook.
Novabook was born out of our personal experiences with the shortcomings of traditional accountancy practices while running Seneca. After dealing with inefficient software and unreliable accountancies for 8 years, we believe it’s time to tackle these challenges head-on.
Culture
We are well-funded but the hardest period of a start-up is always the first couple of years, when the team is small, and you are heavily relied on personally. But this also exposes you to the most interesting period of a company’s lifecycle and also the period where you can learn the most & earn the most material rewards. You won’t be expected to work evenings & weekends, but you will be expected to work hard when on the job.
About the role
We want to hire someone brilliant, original & creative. We have no criteria or qualifications required & simply judge you on your creative output. The ideal places for us to post are YouTube (Shorts), TikTok & Instagram, but we will probably ask you to help out on X & LinkedIn so that we are EVERYWHERE!
About the application process
We have no articulated process. All that we ask is that you submit your best creative work, re-using content that Stephen (our CEO) has written to make content that will perform the best on Instagram/TikTok. Go as divergent as you wish – the aim is maximum performance & random things could deliver this.
Stephen’s newsletter is here: https://thesupernovatech.substack.com/. Feel free to check out our socials for other inspiration BUT the aim is to outperform what we do at the moment, not to clone it!
By submitting, you consent to us posting this on our socials to meritocratically test who performs the best on the internet…. And as a result assign right of use & the IP to us. A point of legal admin that we know is boring, but we kind of need to run this test.
In a final round process, we value candidates more highly if they know a little bit about our business already. In case it’s useful as a light-touch way of getting up to speed:
– Here is our company’s newsletter in Reels form.
– And here are our interviews with the UK’s best startup founders.
