— all in one platform.

• Automated reporting across 10+ report types

About the Role:
We are looking for a Solutions Designer who can bridge the gap between FigureFlow’s technology and the real-world financial operations of our customers.
This is not a generic pre-sales or account management role.
We need someone who has lived inside finance departments, understands the complexity of:
* Financial close cycles
* Audit processes
* Management reporting
* Statutory compliance
—and can confidently speak with CFOs, Financial Controllers, and Finance Managers about how FigureFlow can transform their work.
You will:
* Turn prospect pain points into concrete solution designs
* Own the technical onboarding of new customers
* Channel real-world insights back into the product team
Your Big Four audit background, ACCA qualification, and experience as a Financial Controller are not just nice-to-haves — they are fundamental to why this role works.
You will understand what finance teams need because you have been one of them.
What You Will Do:
Pre-Sales & Solution Design:
* Lead discovery conversations with CFOs, Controllers, and Finance Managers to map their reporting workflows, data environments, and compliance requirements.
* Design tailored solution proposals showing how FigureFlow addresses each prospect’s financial operations and pain points.
* Deliver product demonstrations grounded in the prospect’s real financial context, not generic use cases.
* Develop proof-of-concept configurations and phased implementation plans to support sales conversations.
* Collaborate with the sales team on proposals and commercial discussions with finance-led buyers.
Customer Onboarding & Implementation:
* Own the end-to-end technical onboarding journey for new customers — from data mapping and configuration to the first live report.
* Work directly with customer finance teams to configure FigureFlow to their chart of accounts, reporting structures, and statutory requirements.
* Design and document implementation playbooks for different customer profiles, including SMEs and growth-stage companies.
* Ensure every customer achieves meaningful outcomes on the platform quickly and confidently.
Product Feedback & Market Insight:
* Serve as the voice of the customer in internal product discussions.
* Translate field experience into clear, prioritized product feedback.
* Document recurring customer challenges, edge cases, and unmet needs to inform the product roadmap.
* Partner with product and engineering teams to validate new features against real-world finance workflows.
* Build solution templates, best-practice guides, and onboarding resources tailored to the Nigerian market.

✓ ACCA — fully qualified and chartered
✓ Minimum 2 years at a Big Four firm (Deloitte, PwC, EY, or KPMG) in audit or assurance
✓ Demonstrated experience as a Financial Controller or in a senior financial control role
✓ Deep working knowledge of:
* IFRS
* Nigerian tax law

* Curious about how technology and AI can reshape financial operations.
* Able to communicate complex financial and technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
* A self-starter who thrives in fast-moving environments.
