This role isn’t for a passenger.
It’s for a leader who wants to build, fix, and transform.
The business is growing. Having just migrated to SAGE and need someone who can take the reins of the finance function and drive the next stage of their evolution.
If you’re a Financial Controller who thrives on rolling up your sleeves, building strong teams, and improving processes, this is your opportunity to make a real mark.
Here’s what you’ll walk into: - A business with momentum and a genuine growth story
- A finance function that needs structure, process, and leadership
- A team of 9 who are eager to be led, trained, and empowered
- A blank canvas (to a certain extent) to design best-in-class finance operations
- A clear and real succession plan into the CFO role
Here’s what you’ll actually do: - Lead from the front, mentor your team, and show them how it's done
- Redesign the chart of accounts and improve reporting frameworks
- Get the month-end process accurate and efficient
- Upgrade AP and AR processes from manual to modern
- Train and upskill staff with proper workflows and accountability
- Leverage SAGE and implement AI tools to streamline reporting
- Put proper CAPEX procedures in place
- Be the go-to person for financial insight across the business
And the culture? It’s real, down-to-earth, and values action over ego.
This is a team that moves quickly, works together, and isn’t bogged down in politics.
You’ll be working with a CFO who values trust, clarity, and outcomes, and wants you to lead with confidence.
You’ll thrive here if you:
- Are CA, CPA, CIMA, ACCA qualified
- Have experience in setting up or transforming finance functions
- Have strong systems skills, ideally SAGE, and love building efficient processes
- Communicate clearly and confidently with both finance and non-finance stakeholders
- Aren’t afraid to get into the weeds and lead by example
- Want to grow into a CFO role where you’ve earned it through impact
What’s in it for you? - A true leadership seat, not a glorified reporting role
- The chance to build something properly from the ground up
- A team that wants to grow with you
- A business that rewards initiative, action, and improvement
- A stepping stone to CFO within a high-performing group
This isn’t just the next step.
It’s a defining move in your career.
