This role offers a broad remit across FP&A, financial control, group reporting, tax, audit, systems improvement and team management. You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping processes, driving commercial insight and helping build a best-in-class finance function as the business continues to scale internationally.

- Strong FP&A and financial modelling capability.
- Exposure to group consolidations and international entities.
- Experience managing audits and statutory reporting.
- A proactive approach to improving systems, processes and controls.
