Monitoring costs and expenditure across all projects and entities and development of new financial analysis to add to a growing suite of reporting. Compliance and Risk Management: Ensure adherence to relevant legal and regulatory requirements, including company secretarial, data privacy, financial reporting, and risk management protocols. Continual Improvement. Stay abreast of industry trends, best practices, and new technologies to enhance the efficiency of the family office operations. Team Management: Recruit, train, and lead a team of professionals to deliver high-quality services to clients, ensuring a collaborative and supportive work environment. Financial Reporting Development and Oversight: Prepare, review, and develop financial reports for the corporate and personal interests. Handling corporate and personal tax matters including but not limited to VAT, corporation tax, ATED, income tax, CGT, IHT. Oversight of all family assets, properties, trusts and other relevant interests. Payroll

  • Fully qualified ACA.(Essential)
  • Proven experience in similar role within a family office.
  • Experience of developing and maintaining financial analyses Proven track record of systems implementation and maintenance Excellent IT skills, demonstrable proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook Extensive management and statutory accounts experience Excellent written and verbal English Exceptional analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a keen attention to detail.
