Group Financial Controller

If you're an experienced group accountant looking for a senior role that offers genuine flexibility and the opportunity to influence business growth at board level, this is a rare and genuinely exciting opportunity. I'm working with a well-established international business based near Dobwalls with entities across Europe and Asia, that is looking for a technically strong Group Financial Controller to take ownership of group reporting, consolidated accounts, audit management and financial oversight across the group.

This is a newly created position reporting directly to the Board, encompassing:

• Preparation of monthly UK management accounts and consolidated group reporting across multiple entities, including multi-currency reporting.
• Producing and maintaining group cash flow forecasts and monitoring banking arrangements, finance costs and foreign exchange exposure.
• Managing UK and international audit processes and overseeing intercompany accounting, recharges and associated compliance requirements.
• Supporting the introduction of departmental budgets and cost centres, monitoring actual expenditure against forecasts and undertaking cost analysis to provide greater visibility of group expenditure and cost drivers.
• Acting as senior lead for the group accounts team, with line management responsibility for the UK Accounts Assistant, and driving improvements to accounting systems, reporting, controls and processes across the group.

The ideal candidate will be a professionally qualified accountant with solid experience working within a multi-company group environment. Experience of consolidated accounts, multi-currency reporting, intercompany accounting and audit management is essential. Proficiency with SAP and Sage is strongly preferred, alongside the ability to communicate confidently with board level stakeholders and a proactive approach to process improvement.

In return you'll benefit from a flexible 20 to 25 hour working week, direct board exposure, occasional home working and flexible scheduling by agreement, generous benefits and the opportunity to take on increased strategic responsibility as the business continues to grow. The role is primarily office based and will involve occasional international travel as required.

This role may also be of interest to those with experience or job titles including: Group Financial Controller, Financial Controller, Senior Group Management Accountant, Group Management Accountant, Head of Finance, Finance Manager, Group Reporting Accountant, Consolidations Accountant or Qualified Accountant seeking a senior part time finance role in Cornwall.
