A leading financial services organisation is hiring a Financial Controller to report directly into the CFO — a role that sits at the heart of the business with genuine influence over how it's run.

- Overseeing financial statements, ensuring they're accurate, timely, and compliant with IFRS/GAAP
- Leading month-end and year-end close across the group
- Owning regulatory compliance — keeping ahead of financial regulations, tax laws and investment rules, and maintaining strong internal controls to protect the business and prevent fraud
- Identifying and managing financial risk, including oversight of investment fund performance
- Coordinating the external audit process and acting as a trusted voice for investors, trustees and other stakeholders
- Driving process improvement — streamlining systems, automating where possible, and improving reporting accuracy
