Your new role

As Financial Controller, you’ll be the driving force behind operational finance in a rapidly scaling environment. This is a high‑impact, sleeves‑rolled‑up role with direct responsibility for building rigour, strengthening reporting, and ensuring financial processes scale in line with fast growth.
You’ll:

• Lead month‑end, quarter‑end and year‑end reporting cycles, including group consolidation across international entities.

• Oversee statutory accounts, audit processes and corporation tax work alongside external advisors.

• Support R&D tax credit and US tax submissions, with a view to taking full ownership.

• Manage cashflow, banking relationships and key financial operations.

• Run payroll and coordinate with overseas accounting partners.

• Build, refine and optimise financial systems, processes and controls to support scale.

• Partner closely with cross‑functional leaders in a high‑speed, high‑expectation environment.
  
  This role suits someone who is energised by scale‑up intensity, quick decision‑making, and the opportunity to shape a finance function during a period of rapid expansion.

What you'll need to succeed

• Qualified accountant (ACA/CA preferred) with strong post‑qualification experience.

• Background in both practice and industry within a fast‑paced operational finance role.

• Experience across consolidation, reporting, audit, tax and financial controls.

• A proactive, agile, delivery‑focused mindset — someone who pushes projects forward and thrives without micromanagement.

• Excellent communication skills, especially within a remote or hybrid environment.

• High attention to detail and the ability to switch seamlessly between detail and strategic context.

• Strong skills in Excel/Google Sheets.

Bonus points for:

• SaaS or subscription‑based business models

• Xero experience

• Financial modelling

• Systems upgrades or transformations

• Prior audit leadership (either side of the table)
