Your new company

You will be joining a well established group based close to Guildford, Surrey in one of the key sites in the group finance team.


Your new role

Reporting into the FD, you will be taking on a contract role (newly created) to help develop the group function and ensure the structure, processes, procedures and team layout are geared up for growth. This is a key role with a mix of exciting projects as well as "business as usual" activities. You will be leading a small team of qualified accountants in group who have built a positive culture - they are responsible for group month end accounts and year end. You will lead all areas including consolidated management accounts, group statutory accounts and audit, corporate tax for all UK and overseas entities as well as treasury activities and group cashflow. In the monthly accounts, you'll also ensure the reporting is value add and insightful for the exec team.

What you'll need to succeed

In addition to your accounting qualification (ACA/ACCA/equivalent), you should be a proven operator and technically strong (IFRS) in a group finance manager or controller role.

What you'll get in return

A competitive salary is on offer, performance bonus, hybrid working, 25 days annual leave + BH, private medical and pension. Whilst the role is a contract initially, there is potential for it to be extended or to become permanent.
