ABOUT US

At Jigsaw, we’re on a mission to transform the way professional services and financial institutions work. We do this by helping our clients organise, visualise and use their data (think Figma or Canvas but for the ‘City’). Our clients include the world’s biggest consultancies, leading financial institutions and top law firms.
Jigsaw was founded by two seasoned entrepreneurs, Stephen and Travis. This is their second venture together; their first was acquired by a US private equity firm and went on to become a billion-dollar company and a household name in professional service firms across the world. Jigsaw is now on a growth trajectory few Series A companies achieve - putting us in the top quartile SaaS companies globally. Today we proudly serve thousands of users from nearly two hundred businesses worldwide, who love our products and use them everyday.
But we’re only getting started! We have ambitious goals and we’re looking for talented people to help us achieve them.

  • Work collaboratively with other departments to streamline financial processes and improve financial controls.
  • Supervise and mentor the Finance Associate and Bookkeeper by providing day-to-day guidance and professional development support. Prepare to grow and develop a global tax and accounting team as the business scales.
