Group Financial Controller

Group Financial Controller | Consumer Products Group | London

SRM Recruitment is working exclusively with a PE-backed international business to appoint a Group Financial Controller. This is a newly created role, designed to bring single-point ownership to controllership, tax, treasury, statutory reporting and company secretarial across a multi-entity group spanning the UK, US, Germany and Africa.

Reporting to the Group Finance Director, you will own group corporation tax compliance and planning, audit lead, prepare statutory accounts across all in-scope entities, and oversee cash management, FX exposure/treasury and debt covenant monitoring. You will also take ownership of the holding company stack and intercompany loan cascade, trademark and patent administration, and Companies House compliance across the UK group.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
