Co-Founder & Chief Creative Officer | Innovative Finance & HR Recruitment
£90,000 – £105,000 + Benefits - Hybrid (1 Day in Exeter Weekly)
We’re supporting a fast-growing, highly innovative brand in their search for a Financial Controller to lead core finance operations at a time of exciting expansion.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and is ready to take full ownership of financial controls, reporting, and team development in a business scaling at pace.
Ideally, we are looking for a BIG4 qualified ACA who has a strong controllership and technical grounding!
The Opportunity
In this senior leadership role, you’ll partner closely with the Finance Director to oversee all aspects of financial operations - from reporting and compliance to transactional finance and system development. You’ll also play a critical role in ensuring the finance function evolves to match the needs of a growing and increasingly complex business.
You’ll be responsible for:
* Leading the financial close process, ensuring timely and accurate internal and external reporting.
* Statutory accounts and audit queries.
* Managing audit, tax, and regulatory requirements, ensuring ongoing compliance.
* Overseeing day-to-day transactional finance, including payments, receivables, payroll, and banking activities.
* Reviewing and improving internal controls and financial processes for scalability.
* Supporting and developing a small but capable finance team.
* Contributing to system improvements and helping shape the use of finance technology across the business (experience with NetSuite is a bonus).
* Working closely with FP&A to support planning, budgeting, and forecasting activities.
* Monitoring working capital, overseeing cash flow, and supporting finance-related projects across departments.
* Deputising for the Finance Director when needed.
What We’re Looking For
We're seeking someone who’s technically strong but also comfortable in a fast-moving, commercial setting.
You'll be someone who enjoys streamlining processes, leading teams, and working collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders.
You’ll likely bring:
* Full qualification as a chartered accountant (ACA preferred), ideally trained in a top-tier or Big 4 firm.
* At least 3 years’ experience in a senior finance leadership role, ideally within a growing or change-heavy environment.
* Strong team leadership credentials, with a track record of mentoring and developing finance professionals.
* A practical understanding of modern finance systems and how to leverage them for improved accuracy and efficiency.
* Confidence in driving change, challenging the status quo, and introducing new ways of working.
* A sharp eye for detail and a proactive, solution-oriented mindset.
What’s In It For You?
* Hybrid working model – just one day a week required onsite in Exeter.
* A chance to join a well-regarded, forward-thinking business at a time of genuine growth and transformation.
If you're looking to move into a pivotal role within a high-growth organisation and want to lead from the front in shaping the finance function of the future - we’d love to hear from you.
