Job Title
Group Financial Controller | Global Advisory Firm | Hybrid
Full Advert
We are partnering with a high‑growth global trading and advisory firm operating within a specialised international market. Known for their analytical approach, entrepreneurial culture and sophisticated client solutions, the business has continued to expand both locally and offshore. As part of this growth, they have created a Group Financial Controller role to strengthen financial leadership and support the next phase of development. This role works closely with a commercially minded CFO and plays a key part in shaping how the finance function operates as the organisation continues to scale.
The Role
Reporting directly to the CFO, the Group Financial Controller will take ownership of core finance operations while bringing greater consistency, structure and discipline across reporting and controls. The role combines technical oversight with people leadership and offers genuine influence over how finance supports the wider business.
Key responsibilities include
- Group month‑end and management reporting
- Oversight of statutory reporting, compliance and audit processes
- Leading and developing a small finance team
- Budgeting, forecasting and cashflow oversight
- Strengthening internal controls, reporting quality and delivery timelines
- Acting as a senior finance partner to the CFO and leadership team
This role will suit someone who enjoys setting standards, improving processes and being relied on for outcomes, rather than operating purely as a technical specialist.
About You
This opportunity is well suited to an experienced Financial Controller or senior finance professional who is comfortable operating in a commercial, analytically driven environment. You’re likely to bring:
- Experience working within a group or multi‑business structure
- Strong technical accounting capability paired with commercial judgement
- Confidence leading and developing finance teams
- High attention to detail and a structured approach to deadlines
- The ability to operate autonomously and take ownership of deliverables
