Your new role
As Financial Controller, you’ll be the driving force behind operational finance in a rapidly scaling environment. This is a high‑impact, sleeves‑rolled‑up role with direct responsibility for building rigour, strengthening reporting, and ensuring financial processes scale in line with fast growth.

You’ll:

• Lead month‑end, quarter‑end and year‑end reporting cycles, including group consolidation across international entities.
• Oversee statutory accounts, audit processes and corporation tax work alongside external advisors.
• Support R&D tax credit and US tax submissions, with a view to taking full ownership.
• Manage cashflow, banking relationships and key financial operations.
• Run payroll and coordinate with overseas accounting partners.
• Build, refine and optimise financial systems, processes and controls to support scale.
• Partner closely with cross‑functional leaders in a high‑speed, high‑expectation environment.
  
  This role suits someone who is energised by scale‑up intensity, quick decision‑making, and the opportunity to shape a finance function during a period of rapid expansion.

• Qualified accountant (ACA/CA preferred) with strong post‑qualification experience.
• Background in both practice and industry within a fast‑paced operational finance role.
• Experience across consolidation, reporting, audit, tax and financial controls.
• A proactive, agile, delivery‑focused mindset — someone who pushes projects forward and thrives without micromanagement.
• Excellent communication skills, especially within a remote or hybrid environment.
• High attention to detail and the ability to switch seamlessly between detail and strategic context.
• Strong skills in Excel/Google Sheets.

• SaaS or subscription‑based business models
• Xero experience
• Financial modelling
• Systems upgrades or transformations
• Prior audit leadership (either side of the table)
