Assistant Financial Controller

We know we can be better and we want to be.

Be the person to delve into our Financial Controls, Risk Management and Corporate Governance, identify where improvements can be made, where processes can be slicker, policies upgraded and where we can be more robust with greater capability. Then bring others with you and make it happen.

Note: this is a hybrid role, with 3 days per week based out of our Abingdon Head Office. Please consider this before applying.

You will also deputise for the Financial Controller, prepare statutory and monthly management accounts, board packs, and lead the year-end financial audit.

The role will also manage one to two members of the finance team.

You will be a qualified Accountant, ACA, ACCA or CIMA and familiar with IFRS. A good understanding of IFRS 16 would be beneficial.

It is likely you will have worked in practice and audit and ideally will bring some in-house, commercial experience, with at least 5 years total experience.

Experience will also include working with companies with £50m+ turnover, with an understanding of the complexities of group statutory accounts (consolidated accounts).

If you want satisfaction from truly making a difference, rather than just accepting that the now and norm is good enough, then we would love to hear about how you go about it.
