Finance Controller

Make a difference every day. Help build the finance foundations for a growing healthcare group. As Financial Controller for the Kensa Health Group, you’ll take ownership of all finance operations, reporting, controls and cashflow across a multi-entity healthcare group. Kensa Health operates across its Home Care, Virtual Care and Analytics divisions, supporting care delivered in people’s homes and communities. This is initially a hands-on role working across the entire spectrum of finance including strategic reporting. The role will work closely with the Chief Financial Officer.

You’ll lead business partnering, month-end reporting, management accounts, reconciliations, group consolidation, cashflow and process improvement. In the early stage of the role, you should be comfortable getting into the detail, including journals, reconciliations and transactional workflows where needed. Over time, you’ll help build stronger systems, controls and ways of working. This role would suit a qualified finance professional ready to step up. You will have experience in both transactional finance as well as FP&A and want a broad, hands-on role with the potential to progress towards a future Finance Director or CFO position as the group grows.

What you’ll do:

• Lead the finance team and work closely with the CFO to enable the finance function to maintain pace with growth
• Lead the month-end close process and production of management accounts
• Oversee financial controls, reconciliations and reporting accuracy
• Support group consolidation across multiple entities
• Manage relationships with external partners on tax, compliance and governance
• Manage cashflow, working capital and financial planning processes
• Improve finance systems, controls and ways of working as the business grows
• Support the development of the finance team as the business grows
• Partner with operational teams to provide clear financial insight
• Provide practical, commercially aware finance support across the group

What you’ll get:

• Salary of £65,000 to £80,000 depending on experience
• A broad finance role with real ownership and influence
• Direct access to the CFO and senior leadership team
• The opportunity to help shape the finance function as the group grows
• Exposure across home care, virtual care and analytics
• Hybrid working with UK-wide travel to operational sites
• The chance to develop with the business over time

About you:

This role will suit you if you:

• Are a qualified accountant, ACA, ACCA or CIMA
• Have experience in a Senior Finance or Financial Controller role
• Are confident leading month-end, management accounts and financial reporting
• Have strong experience with financial controls, reconciliations and reporting accuracy
• Have experience in business partnering providing analysis and insights
• Are comfortable working across multiple entities or business units
• Can balance attention to detail with a wider commercial view
• Are confident working directly with senior leaders and exec team
• Are proactive, organised and willing to improve processes rather than simply maintain them
• Are comfortable in a growing business where systems and structures are still developing

Experience in healthcare, social care, multi-site services or an acquisitive group environment would be helpful, but is not essential. We are looking for someone who is technically strong, commercially aware and happy to take ownership in a hands-on finance role.

Why Kensa Health?

We are building a growing healthcare group that supports care in people’s homes and communities. Finance has a critical role to play in that growth. Strong reporting, clear controls and better financial insight will help the business make good decisions, support operational teams and scale safely. If you want a role where you can get close to the business, work directly with senior leaders and help build a finance function that makes a real difference, this is the opportunity to do just that.
