Financial Controller

Financial ControllerLiverpool | Hybrid (2 Days Office) | £70,000 + Benefits | Fixed Term Contract to December 2027

Want the scale and complexity of a large business without the bureaucracy?
A high-growth, market-leading organisation is looking for an experienced Financial Controller to take ownership of a sizeable finance function during an exciting period of expansion, change and systems transformation.

This is far more than a traditional financial reporting role.
You'll lead a talented finance team, partner with senior stakeholders across the business, drive process improvements and play a key role in a major ERP transformation programme. The business operates across multiple entities and continues to evolve at pace, making this an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys building, improving and influencing.

• Leading and developing a team of qualified and part-qualified accountants
• Owning month-end close, reporting and financial control processes
• Ensuring balance sheet integrity and audit readiness
• Driving continuous improvement across finance processes and systems
• Supporting a significant finance transformation project, including ERP migration
• Partnering with senior leadership across a multi-entity operation

• Qualified Accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA)
• Proven Financial Controller or Senior Finance Manager experience
• Strong technical accounting and controls background
• Experience leading and developing teams
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, constantly evolving environment
• Experience of systems implementations or finance transformation would be advantageous

• High-profile leadership role
• Exposure to large-scale transformation projects
• Opportunity to leave a genuine legacy during a key period of growth
• Hybrid working pattern
• Contract running through to December 2027, offering longer-term stability than most FTC opportunities
• Join a business that continues to invest, innovate and challenge the status quo

If you're looking for a role where you can genuinely add value rather than simply maintain the status quo, we'd love to have a confidential conversation.
