Job Description
Controller
The opportunity
The company is looking for a hands-on Controller to join a complex, evolving finance environment. The business sits at an interesting point in its development: it has a listed shareholder with expectations around governance, reporting, procedures and multinational-level standards , while the underlying group of companies remains comparatively unstructured and requires further professionalisation .
The Controller will play an important role in bridging these two environments. This is not a position for someone who expects mature systems, clean data and established processes from day one. Equally, it is not a pure transformation or advisory role. The successful candidate will need to be comfortable working within the current environment while actively improving it .
Key responsibilities
Take ownership of financial controlling , with a strong understanding of financial statements and the ability to analyse and manage P&L;, balance sheet and related financial information.
Work across both financial and industrial controlling ,
with financial controlling being the higher priority.
Produce and improve management reporting, analysis, budgeting and forecasting.
Work hands-on with Excel, imperfect datasets and relatively unsophisticated tools where required.
Improve the quality, consistency and reliability of financial information across the group.
Develop and implement more sophisticated controlling processes, reporting tools and procedures over time.
Help bridge the gap between the reporting/governance requirements of a listed shareholder and the current capabilities of the underlying businesses.
Work closely with operating companies and management to understand performance and identify issues.
Get into the detail when required rather than relying exclusively on established systems or teams.
Contribute to the broader professionalisation of the finance function.
Candidate profile
The ideal candidate will have approximately 8–10 year
