About Graphcore 
Graphcore is developing the next generation of AI compute technology. As AI workloads continue to grow in scale and complexity, we are building the hardware and software systems required to power the future of artificial intelligence. 
As we enter the next phase of growth, we are looking for an experienced Head of Accounting Operations to lead our global accounting operations function and help ensure our finance organisation scales effectively alongside the business. 
The Role 
Reporting to the VP Finance, the Head of Accounting Operations will lead Graphcore's Accounting Operations, Accounts Payable and Payroll functions, ensuring the business has robust, scalable, and well-controlled accounting processes capable of supporting rapid growth. 
The role will be responsible for the operational execution of the month-end close process, the preparation of the Groups monthly management accounts, balance sheet integrity, transaction processing, and accounting operations across the Group. As Graphcore expands its global footprint and scales manufacturing and delivery of AI systems, this role will play a key part in developing new accounting processes and strengthening financial controls. 
This is a hands-on leadership role requiring someone who combines strong accounting operations expertise with a practical, delivery-focused mindset. The successful candidate will be comfortable operating both strategically and in the detail, leading teams whilst remaining close enough to the operation to drive change and solve problems.
