Job Description

This is more than a technical finance role. You'll be a senior leader within Financial Control, responsible for ensuring the integrity, accuracy and performance of the group's financial reporting, while also stepping in to lead the function when needed. You'll take clear ownership of management and statutory accounting across a multi-entity, multi-currency environment, leading the monthly close, group consolidation and audit process. Alongside this, you'll provide senior oversight and support across payroll, compliance, systems and transactional finance, ensuring strong controls and consistency across the function. You'll lead management accounting and payroll through your direct reports, while supporting and strengthening the wider transactional finance functions. Working closely with senior stakeholders across the business, you'll provide clear financial insight, challenge and direction, helping ensure the business operates with strong financial discipline as it continues to grow. This role combines technical expertise, leadership and judgement. You'll be just as comfortable leading the close and audit process as you are representing finance in senior forums or driving improvements across systems and controls.

  • Leading group consolidations, statutory accounts and the external audit process
  • Acting as deputy to the Financial Controller, providing leadership and continuity

  • Leading and developing a team across management accounts and payroll

Requirements

  • Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with strong post-qualification experience
  • Proven background in a senior financial control role within a complex, multi-entity business
  • Strong technical expertise across group consolidations and statutory reporting (FRS102)
  • Experience leading external audits end-to-end
  • Confident people leader with the ability to develop and motivate teams
  • Comfortable operating with autonomy and representing finance at a senior level
  • Strong systems mindset, ideally with ERP experience (Business Central or similar)
  • Able to communicate financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders
  • High attention to detail with a proactive, solutions-focused approach
