Finance Director / Assistant Controller EMEA (Controllership, SOX, OPEX & Inventory) Leeds / Hybrid - 3 days per week from our office About the Role SharkNinja doesn't do ordinary — and neither does this role. As Finance Director, Assistant Controller EMEA, you'll be the technical and operational backbone of financial controllership across the region, reporting to the Senior Finance Director EMEA. You'll need to move fast, think clearly under pressure, and pivot without losing grip on what matters: accurate numbers, clean controls, and a finance team that operates at the pace of the business. What You'll Own US GAAP & Technical Accounting Be the region's authority on US GAAP. When the business has a question on revenue recognition, inventory valuation, OPEX classification, or lease accounting — you have the answer. Ensure all EMEA entities maintain records in compliance with US GAAP, IFRS, and applicable local GAAP, with no ambiguity on policy application. Flag and escalate emerging technical accounting issues before they become audit findings. Controls, SOX & Remediation Lead end-to-end SOX compliance across EMEA legal entities — design, monitoring, testing, and remediation. Own balance sheet integrity across all EMEA entities — reviews, reconciliations, and sign-off are yours. Financial Reporting Deliver timely, accurate monthly, quarterly, and annual close cycles across all EMEA legal entities — with insightful commentary that tells the story behind the numbers, not just the numbers. Lead Financial Controller review and oversight across the EMEA entity portfolio. Leadership & Transformation Lead a team of ~20 across Inventory and OPEX — set the standard, develop the talent, and build a team that's outrageously extraordinary in how they show up every day. Partner cross-functionally — sales, ops, IT, Finance Operations, Deductions, GTN — to connect the dots and drive end-to-end efficiency. Provide senior leadership coverage and actively shape a "One Global Finance Team" culture across EMEA. What You Bring 12+ years in controllership, audit, or financial reporting in a multinational environment — with direct, hands-on experience remediating control deficiencies and navigating SOX audits.
