Financial Controller – Statutory Reporting
12 Month FTC
London, Hybrid Working
JSS are supporting a high‑growth, regulated UK financial services business in the appointment of an Interim Financial Controller to act as a senior number two to the CFO during a period of continued scale and increasing regulatory scrutiny.
This is a hands‑on, technically robust interim role, suited to a senior finance leader who is comfortable owning the detail in a fast‑moving, complex environment.
The Role

- Responsibility for IFRS reporting, including IFRS 9 expected credit loss methodology, judgements and disclosures
- Acting as senior technical accounting lead, including ownership of the group accounting policy framework
- Leading the external audit end‑to‑end with no late issues or surprises
- Attending and supporting Audit Committee meetings, including preparation of papers and articulation of key judgements
- Operating as a true right‑hand to the CFO, anticipating issues and translating complexity into clear decisions
- Supporting the evolution of finance processes, controls and systems as the business scales
The Ideal Profile
- Fully qualified accountant (ACA or ideally from an audit background in financial services)
- Strong background in regulated financial services, ideally banking or lending‑led environments
- Deep technical accounting capability, including IFRS 9, statutory accounts and audit leadership
- Proven experience operating as Deputy CFO, Group FC or Senior FD
- Comfortable being hands‑on around close, technical accounting, controls and audit
- Confident engaging with senior stakeholders, auditors and non‑executive level challenge
Why This Role?
