Operating in a fast-paced, investor-led environment, the business is looking for someone who can quickly take ownership of financial control and reporting, strengthen the underlying processes and provide senior leadership with greater confidence and visibility over the numbers.

- Lead and strengthen the financial control environment across the business.
- Review balance sheet reconciliations, controls and core accounting processes, addressing gaps and driving improvements.
- Oversee statutory reporting and support the delivery of external audit requirements.
- Review and enhance budgeting, forecasting and cash flow processes.
