You might not be actively looking for a new role. But if you're an experienced Financial Controller who would move for the right level of ownership, complexity and opportunity to make an impact, this is worth seriously considering.
SF Partners is working with an established, multi-entity business based in Birmingham to recruit a Group Financial Controller. Our client is continuing to grow and evolve through acquisition, so now is the perfect time to be joining!
This isn't simply a role focused on producing the numbers!
You'll take ownership of financial control across the Group, lead and develop a multi-site finance team and play a central role in integrating acquired businesses, strengthening the control environment and improving how finance operates across the organisation.
What will you actually own?:
Reporting to the Director of Group Finance you'll have four direct reports across two locations and a broad Group remit covering:
Financial control and management reporting across multiple Group entities
Full ownership of the Group balance sheet and control environment
Finance integration of acquired businesses – aligning systems, processes and controls
Leadership and development of a multi-site finance team
Audit readiness, VAT, tax and statutory compliance
Cash flow forecasting, banking and treasury
Intercompany accounting and foreign exchange
Support across budgeting and forecasting
Commercial interaction around performance and stock reporting
Working alongside FP&A to drive automation, standardisation and process improvement
It's a role where you'll need to be comfortable operating at different levels – challenging the numbers and getting into the detail when required, while also developing people, improving processes and influencing how finance operates across the wider Group.
Who are we looking to speak with?:
You'll be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
