Finance Controller
Location: Liverpool
Salary: £80K - £90K + car allowance + bonus + enhanced pension
A high growth business just outside the city centre in the heart of Liverpool City Centre has a newly created vacancy for a Financial Controller.
This is an opportunity for a commercially curious, operationally focused finance leader who wants to be at the heart of the business, not behind the numbers. Working closely with the Finance Director and leadership team, you will play a central role in shaping strategy, improving margins, and influencing day-to-day operational decisions.
This is a combination of a reporting-led role, developing KPIs, and overseeing the Y/E audit. You will combine statutory and governance responsibility with true business partnering across operations, pricing, and productivity.
