Your new company

I am currently working with a growing insurance broker based in the heart of the City. With a strong reputation in the market and ambitious plans for growth, they are now looking to appoint a Finance Director to lead the day-to-day finance operations and ensure robust client money management. This is a key leadership role, reporting directly to the Divisional CEO and offering the opportunity to shape the finance function in a dynamic and regulated environment.

Your new role

This is a broad and hands-on role with key duties and responsibilities including:

  • Overseeing the day-to-day running of the finance function, including financial operations, reporting, and controls
  • Ensuring full compliance with FCA client money regulations and maintaining robust client money processes
  • Managing month-end and year-end close processes, including preparation of management accounts
  • Leading the audit process and liaising with external auditors and regulatory bodies
  • Developing and mentoring a small finance team
  • Driving process improvements and automation across finance operations

What you'll need to succeed

You will need to be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with proven experience in the insurance sector, within a Lloyd’s broker. A strong understanding of
Client money rules (CASS 5) are essential, along with a track record of managing financial operations in a fast-paced, regulated business. You’ll be a confident communicator with the ability to influence senior stakeholders and lead a small team.

What you'll get in return

You will be rewarded with a competitive salary and benefits package, along with the opportunity to play a pivotal role in a growing and respected broker. This is a highly visible role with exposure to senior leadership and the chance to make a real impact on the business.
