FINANCIAL CONTROLLER Salary: c£70,000 to £90,000 West Yorkshire You Won't Be Sitting in a Back Office Imagine a role where: Your fingerprints are on every decision that matters You're in the conversation when the business is scaling fast People actually listen when you talk numbers - because you're not just reporting, you're thinking You walk into meetings and know the answer to the question before it's asked The pace is real. The impact is visible. You see your work changing how the business operates This is what it's like working as a Financial Controller in a high-growth, PE-backed business that's moving at speed. Here's What You Actually Get to Do You own the full picture. Not a narrow slice. Month-end close. Cashflow forecasting. Financial control across the entire estate. System ownership. Audit. Compliance. All of it. You lead people. A small team that respects what you do and wants to learn from you. You partner with real decision-makers. A Finance Director stepping into strategy. An FP&A Manager building insight. People who get that finance isn't back-office - it's the engine room. You get challenged. Constantly. On the numbers. On your thinking. On whether there's a better way. And because the business moves fast, you get to see if you were right within weeks, not months. You shape how things work. The systems need modernising. The processes need pace. The reporting needs to tell a real story. You get to do that. What This Means for Your Career You're not staying in one lane. You're learning commercial acumen, system strategy, team leadership, and how a PE-backed business actually scales.

You'll be hands-on. You'll think on your feet. You'll be in the room when it matters. If that sounds like being bored, this isn't for you. If that sounds like finally doing work that counts - like actually building something - keep reading. What You Need Qualified (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) Comfortable being challenged on the numbers Commercial mindset (not just technical) Genuine interest in how the business works, not just the financials bility to think fast and act decisively Why the wide salary range? There is genuine curiosity from the Finance Director to explore the market and shape the role around an 'emerging finance leader' who is making a step up or someone who is an experienced Financial Controller already. As long as the hunger and desire to want to make this role your own, to grow and develop further is there (and not someone who is looking for something 'steady' We have two similar roles in high-growth businesses, same salary range, within 10 miles of each other in This role offer combination of autonomy, breadth, and genuine impact.
