Requirements
Requirements
  • You have been the number one or number two in a finance function and have owned the complete picture end to end
  • You have prepared IFRS-compliant financial statements independently and can defend technical accounting judgements to external auditors. Experience leading or supporting a transition from local GAAP to IFRS is a strong advantage
  • Experience in Big 4 or a top 20 practice, a PE-backed business, or a small listed company such as an AIM-listed or similarly regulated environment. You have been held to a high standard and that standard is now your own
  • You have built a finance function from scratch, or close to it. You know what good looks like and you have had to create it yourself rather than inherit it
  • You are genuinely and demonstrably AI-curious. This means you are already using AI tools in your day-to-day work, you follow developments in the space, and you are energised by the idea of building a finance function on modern infrastructure. This is the most important thing we are looking for and it needs to go beyond surface-level interest
  • You are a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or equivalent)
Job Responsibility
Job Responsibility
  • Design and own the month-end close process across all entities, with the goal of closing on day one of each month through automation and modern tooling
  • Lead the transition from local GAAP reporting to IFRS across all jurisdictions, including revenue recognition, provisions, SBC, and other technical judgement areas
  • Build an AI-native finance function across financial operations and reporting, embedding market-leading tools to eliminate manual work and improve quality
  • Group consolidation: intercompany eliminations, FX translation, consolidated P+L and balance sheet
  • Statutory reporting and audit: annual accounts across all entities, primary contact for external auditors
  • Management reporting: monthly P+L, balance sheet, and cash flow pack for board and leadership, evolving from delivery of numbers to delivery of insight
  • Compliance, VAT and payroll: own the master compliance calendar across all entities, VAT submissions, and payroll coordination
  • Cash and AP: cash positions, FX exposure, accounts payable, payment runs, and bank reconciliations
  • Take full ownership of FP+A and investor relations from approximately month six, targeting this as roughly 50% of the role as core accounting becomes systematised
