Harmonic are delighted to be working on a retained basis with an established and highly profitable Private Equity backed SaaS business operating within the healthtech sector, in the search for a Financial Controller to take full ownership of the finance function. This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for someone who wants to build and shape a finance function from the ground up. The business operates a mission-critical software platform with a loyal, long-standing customer base and is now entering a new phase of its journey, having recently carved out from a parent company. As the sole finance hire, you will have end-to-end ownership across financial operations, reporting and process design. This role will suit an experienced finance professional who thrives with autonomy, is comfortable working in a leaner environment and wants to make a real and lasting impact rather than operate within an established structure.
Job Responsibility:
Take ownership of the full financial cycle, from invoicing and transactional finance through to management reporting and executive-level financial analysis
Lead the transition of financial systems and processes away from legacy parent company infrastructure, building scalable and fit-for-purpose solutions
Manage payroll administration and oversee HR administrative processes including new hire onboarding and benefits coordination
Produce accurate and timely financial reporting for senior stakeholders, supporting commercial decision-making across the business
Design and implement financial controls, processes and procedures suited to a standalone, growth-oriented SaaS environment
Act as the key finance contact across the business, partnering with leadership on budgeting, forecasting and financial planning
Requirements:
Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) or qualified by experience with a strong track record
Comfortable designing and implementing financial processes and controls independently
Strong working knowledge of financial operations including invoicing, reconciliations and payroll administration
Highly organised with excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities
A self-starter who is comfortable working autonomously in a lean, fast-moving environment
Nice to have:
Experience within a SaaS or healthtech business
Background in a carve-out, spin-out or systems transition environment
Familiarity with SME or owner-managed business environments
