  • Lead and develop a central finance team of c.45 people
  • Own group reporting, forecasting, budgeting and statutory reporting
  • Drive finance transformation and automation initiatives
  • Oversee tax, cash management and shared services functions
  • Lead year-end audit and external auditor relationships
  • Improve reporting quality, efficiency and real-time insight
  • Support acquisitions, integrations and business growth initiatives
  • Partner with divisional finance and operational teams across the group

We’re Looking For:

  • ACA qualified (trained within a professional services firm)
  • Strong experience in group consolidation, statutory reporting and cashflow management
  • Proven leadership and change management capability
  • Experience driving process and systems improvements
  • Strong commercial judgement and stakeholder management skills
  • Hands-on, pragmatic and solutions-focused approach
