A high growth business just outside the city centre in the heart of Liverpool City Centre has a newly created vacancy for Financial Controller. This is an opportunity for a commercially curious, operationally focused finance leader who wants to be at the heart of the business, not behind the numbers.
Working closely with the Finance Director and leadership team, you will play a central role in shaping strategy, improving margins and influencing day-to-day operational decisions. This is a combination of a reporting-led role, developing KPIs and overseeing the Y/E audit. You will combine statutory and governance responsibility with true business partnering across operations, pricing and productivity.

- Lead and develop a small finance team
- Work closely with the Managing Director as part of the senior leadership group
- Bring financial challenge, clarity and insight to both short-term decisions and long-term strategy
- Spend time outside the finance office, getting into the operational detail when required
The Person
- Fully qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA)
- Audit background
- Proven finance leadership experience with a hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves approach
- Strong commercial acumen and operational mindset
- Comfortable challenging and influencing senior stakeholders with credibility
- Curious, pragmatic and motivated by building and improving, not maintaining the status quo
- Enjoys working in a business that is evolving and growing
Why This Role?
