Bournemouth Dorset, United Kingdom ESET Full time

At ESET UK, we’ve grown from a small, family-run operation into a thriving part of a 2,000-strong global cybersecurity leader. As we continue to expand, we’re looking for a Head of Finance & Business Operations to play a pivotal role in driving our continued growth and profitability.
As Head of Finance & Business Operations , you’ll be a key member of the UK leadership team — driving financial excellence, operational efficiency, and strategic growth.

Lead and develop the Finance team while providing strategic and operational support to Sales and Marketing, ensuring alignment with ESET UK’s commercial goals.
Oversee all key financial operations, including budgeting, forecasting, cash flow management, financial reporting, and payroll (including commissions).

Lead monthly and annual financial closings, managing accruals, P&L reviews, statutory audits, and the preparation of accurate financial statements and management reports.
Produce timely and accurate financial insights that enable data-driven decision-making across the business.
Work closely with the Country Manager and Senior Leadership Team to shape annual business plans and budgets that support ESET’s broader growth objectives.
Track company results against KPIs, providing clear analysis and actionable recommendations to enhance performance and profitability.
Review and manage commercial contracts, ensuring terms remain effective and beneficial to the business.
Streamline financial and operational processes, establish clear performance targets, and lead continuous improvement initiatives across the organisation.
Maintain strong, transparent relationships with auditors, tax advisors, banks, and other stakeholders, ensuring full compliance with financial, legal, and ethical standards.
Qualified accountant (CIMA, ACCA, ACA) or equivalent experience.
At least 5 years’ experience in a senior accounting or finance leadership role.
Skilled in producing and analysing complex financial and sales reports.
Strong knowledge of systems such as NetSuite, Salesforce and Sage Payroll.
A collaborative leader who builds trust, develops teams, and drives performance.
Competitive salary with performance-based bonus
