London (with some travel to Chatham)
What you’ll do
Lead financial control and reporting across Lloyd’s
- Own the financial control framework for the Corporation, including subsidiaries and international entities.
- Lead monthly close and consolidation with a clear focus on quality, pace and discipline.
- Set and uphold high standards for balance sheet integrity, governance and controls.
Deliver trusted external reporting
- Take accountability for statutory, regulatory and market‑wide reporting across the Market and the Society of Lloyd’s.
- Provide clear, authoritative reporting to senior committees, regulators, rating agencies and external stakeholders.
- Lead relationships with external auditors and guide the market through evolving reporting requirements.
Run critical finance operations
- Oversee finance operations that keep the Lloyd’s Market moving — including central accounting, settlement, payments and cash.
- Ensure operational resilience, strong governance and scalable processes across the UK and international offices.
Drive insight and planning
- Lead FP&A across the Corporation, supporting robust planning, forecasting and investment decisions.
- Translate complex financial information into clear, practical insight for senior leaders.
Steward capital and liquidity
- Play a key role in capital management, balance sheet stewardship and liquidity oversight.
- Work closely with the CFO and Chief Actuary to maintain Lloyd’s financial strength and credibility.
Lead, develop and inspire
- Build and lead a high‑performing Central Finance function with strong technical capability and future‑ready leadership.
- Create an open, inclusive culture where people feel trusted, supported and empowered to do their best work.
- Contribute as a senior leader at Lloyd’s and deputise for the CFO when required.
What you’ll bring
- Senior leadership experience in financial control and reporting within insurance, reinsurance or a similarly regulated environment.
- Deep technical expertise in accounting and external reporting, with the confidence to lead complex judgement discussions.
- Experience working with regulators, auditors and rating agencies at a senior level.
- Strong understanding of capital, solvency, liquidity and balance sheet management.
- A recognised accountancy qualification (ACA, ACCA or equivalent).
- A collaborative, inclusive leadership style — and the confidence to take ownership and make things happen.
- Experience of the Lloyd’s Market is valuable, but not essential.
