This is not just another Financial Controller role.
You won’t be stepping into someone else’s shoes or inheriting a finance function that's been ticking over for years. Quite the opposite.
This is a newly created role, because the business has grown - recently acquiring a new entity - and now needs someone to take the lead on pulling their finance setup into something a bit more joined-up and future-proof.
The newly acquired business is going to need a bit more structure, a bit more consistency, and someone who can turn numbers into insight - not just reports into PDFs.
Here’s what’s on your plate:
- Leading the finance integration of a newly acquired business
- Producing management accounts that actually help people make decisions
- Business partnering with each site - which means building real relationships, not just emailing spreadsheets
- Implementing sensible financial controls and processes
- Managing a small but capable transactional finance team
- Translating finance into something stakeholders can act on
What you’ll probably need:
- You’re either an experienced Financial Controller, or a Senior Management Accountant who’s been acting like one anyway
- You’ve got strong commercial acumen - you understand finance isn’t just about reporting, it’s about driving the business forward
- You’re comfortable with a bit of ambiguity - because this isn’t a role where everything’s already built for you
What’s in it for you?
Autonomy. The chance to shape something new. And the opportunity to work across a group of businesses where your voice will actually be heard.
You’ll work directly with leadership, have a clear seat at the table, and play a big part in where this group goes next.
There’s growth happening. They just need someone who can help bring the finance side up to speed.
Curious? You don’t need a perfect CV to start the conversation. Let’s talk - worst case, you’ll know what else is out there.
