We have partnered with a well-established business in their search for a Financial Controller. We are looking for a commercially minded, fully qualified Accountant with at least three years of post-qualification experience (or qualified-by-experience).

The successful candidate will combine strong technical and leadership skills with sound commercial judgment and will have the ability to work collaboratively with other managers across the businesses. We are not only looking for someone with a strong passion for finance, but for someone who has a hands-on approach to help the business make key decisions.
Reporting to the Financial Director, you will be responsible for a team of seven who will work as part of the wider Finance Team.
In this role, you will play a major part in the success of these organisations by providing timely financial information and ensuring strong financial controls.
