A Financial Controller Role with Genuine Influence
I’m working exclusively on a confidential Financial Controller opportunity with an established engineering and manufacturing business in West Yorkshire.
This is not a role where you simply take ownership of the numbers and report upwards. It’s an opportunity to become a key part of the leadership team, working closely with the Managing Director and operational stakeholders to understand what is driving the business and, importantly, what can be done to improve it.
- Lead a small local finance team
- Take ownership of the financial reporting and control environment
- Provide the commercial insight needed to support decisions across the operation
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
From profitability and project margins through to forecasting, cash and operational performance, your input will be visible and valued.
What makes this particularly interesting is the balance. You’ll have the autonomy and proximity to the business you would expect from a standalone Financial Controller role, while also being part of a wider international group with established governance, systems, and finance leadership.
The business is looking for someone who can look beyond the month-end numbers. Someone who can challenge constructively, translate financial information into something operational teams can actually use, and take ownership when they see an opportunity to improve performance.
Qualifications and Skills:
- ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified
- Background in manufacturing, engineering, project-based, or another operationally complex environment
- Technical strength
- Commercially minded
- Credible with senior stakeholders
- Comfortable being hands-on when required

There is also plenty of scope to make your mark, whether that’s:
- Strengthening financial controls
- Improving reporting
- Developing the team
- Helping the wider operation become more commercially focused
If you’re a Financial Controller, Head of Finance, or a strong finance leader looking for a role where your opinion genuinely carries weight, I’d be interested in speaking with you confidentially.
