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.
