Apointe is supporting the appointment of a Group Financial Controller for an international, AIM-listed technology business entering an exciting phase of growth and transformation.
This is a senior leadership role sitting at the heart of the finance function, partnering directly with the Group CFO to ensure the highest standards of financial reporting, governance and control across a complex international group.

The business operates globally, combines strong recurring SaaS revenues with an ambitious growth agenda and offers genuine exposure to strategic initiatives including M&A, investor reporting and finance transformation.
