Ideagen is growing fast. We're a PE-backed SaaS business with a global footprint, and right now, we're in the middle of a busy period of acquisitions and transformation.

We need someone to take ownership of our financial operations for the next 12 months. You'll lead the monthly consolidation and reporting cycle across a complex multinational structure, and you'll make sure our numbers are accurate, timely, and insightful for senior leadership.

  • Lead financial integration for acquired businesses.
  • Apply technical accounting expertise to complex transactions.
  • Support statutory reporting and liaise with external auditors.
  • Strengthen governance and controls across the group.
  • Build strong relationships with regional finance teams and senior stakeholders.
  • Drive finance transformation projects and system implementations.

Skills And Experience

  • ACA, ACCA (or equivalent) qualification with solid post-qualified experience.
  • Proven track record in financial controller roles within complex, multinational businesses.
  • Hands-on experience with M&A integration accounting and IFRS 3.
  • Strong technical judgment and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work strategically while staying close to the detail.
  • Excellent communication skills – you can turn complex data into clear insights.
  • Comfortable working in Nottingham 3 days a week.
