Financial Controller

Walkden

£60,000 – £65,000 – Operate as the No2 in Finance for a £200mil t/o business, working closely with the CFO

This role offers a fantastic opportunity for an accomplished Financial Controller to transform the finance function of a £200million t/o business; you will be entrusted to modernise, streamline and innovate the function, operating as the project leader on the overhaul and the trusted No2 to the newly appointed CFO. This is a massive opportunity to catapult your career..

About the role:

Speaking candidly with the CFO, she’s looking for an FC to inject some dynamism into the finance department, she believes that the function isn’t aligned to the slick nature of day-to-day operations, therefore she wants this mindset of development and growth to be instilled into the finance function.

This is a challenge she appreciates will be no mean feat, but one she promises to support you in every step of the way. The CFO’s enthusiasm and energy is SO refreshing – you can be assured your leader will be as invested in this project as you.

Responsibility and exposure:

  • Financial Control: Develop, improve and maintain a regime of robust financial controls
  • Group Reporting: Preparing accurate and timely consolidated management accounts and Board pack ready for CFO review.
  • Consolidation:Responsible for the Group consolidation on a monthly basis, ensuring accurate reporting of the core financial statements.
  • Presentation: Working with the CFO to manage robust budget and forecasting processes for presentation internally and externally.
  • Team: Lead finance team members motivating, developing and strengthening the team.

The USP here has to be the freedom and autonomy the CFO is giving you to implement your own ideas, processes and working styles. You will be given full and free reign to transform the finance function as you see fit – what an opportunity.

Am I the right fit?

This brand-new opportunity would suit a self-motivated, resourceful, qualified and confident all-round Financial Controller who enjoys getting stuck into the financial aspect of the business, is not frightened to ‘roll their sleeves up’ and making positive changes and improvements.

So, if you would like to be part of something special, then please contact Amber Long at amber.long@platinumrecruits.co.uk, I am reviewing applications immediately.
