As the Financial Controller you are the guardian of the “Source of Truth.” You will ensure our financial engine runs smoothly, delivering a timely, efficient and accurate month‑end close.

  • Confident communicator with gravitas, comfortable challenging stakeholders and translating financial data into commercial insight.
  • Meticulous, disciplined and commercially aware, with the drive to build a finance function that supports rapid and sustainable growth.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead a high‑quality, efficient month‑end close and deliver board‑ready reporting with robust reconciliations and clear audit trails.
  • Strengthen financial controls, systems and automation to build a scalable, investor‑ready finance function.
  • Act as the lead for audit, year‑end accounts, VAT, payroll and broader tax compliance.
  • Partner cross‑functionally to translate financial performance into commercial insight, confidently challenging on accounting treatment where needed.
  • Lead and develop the finance team, raise standards, improve processes and embed a systems‑first, high‑performance culture as we scale.
