OCHO is partnering with a scaling Belfast headquartered Tech consultancy to recruit a Financial Controller to join the team. With a team of over 100 consultants and a strong pipeline of enterprise contracts, my client is at an exciting stage of their growth journey – scaling operations, expanding into new markets, and building the finance infrastructure to facilitate this.
The successful candidate will be a technically strong Financial Controller who will lead the day to day financial operations of the business – ensuring numbers are accurate, controls are robust for growth, and leadership team has access to financial information they need to make commercial decisions.
This is a hands on role leading a small finance team.
The Role
- Produce accurate monthly management accounts – including P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow
- Lead the year-end close process and act as the primary point of contact for external auditors, overseeing all statutory filings including Corporation Tax, VAT, and PAYE
- Own the annual budgeting cycle and maintain rolling quarterly forecasts, delivering variance analysis
- Act as a genuine commercial partner to the business – working with the CEO and CFO to build financial models that support strategic decisions, pricing reviews, new service line development, and investment cases
- Partner with sales and business development teams to provide financial input into proposals, pricing structures, and contract negotiations
- Develop and refine pricing frameworks across time-and-materials, fixed-price, and retainer engagements, and provide financial modelling to support bids for larger contracts and framework agreements
- Manage cash flow forecasting to ensure the business maintains healthy liquidity, alongside oversight of billing, accounts receivable, credit control, and accounts payable
- Work closely with delivery leads and project managers to track project profitability, utilisation rates, and revenue recognition across the portfolio
- Provide financial support for bid reviews and contract renewals
- Take ownership of improving financial systems, reporting tools, and workflows as the business scales
The Person
- ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified
- Minimum 3-5 years of post-qualification experience in a similar role, ideally within scaling Tech (Series A/B stage or equivalent organic growth)
- Strong technical accounting knowledge (UK GAAP / IFRS)
- Experience managing month-end close and producing management accounts
- Confident communicator who can translate financial data for non-finance stakeholders
- Exposure to multi-currency transactions or international billing
- Experience supporting due diligence processes or investor reporting
