Please note, candidates must be available to start immediately or on short notice . The role offers hybrid working, with 2 - 3 days per week in the office and would suit a seasoned Accountant or Finance Manager. Reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer as part of a small finance team, the Financial Controller will take overall responsibility for the finance function across the UK business and two overseas subsidiaries. This is a broad, hands-on role and would suit an experienced Financial Controller who enjoys operating at both strategic and transactional levels within an SME environment.
