Financial Controller – FMCG | Cork (On-Site/Hybrid)
Cork | Senior Leadership | Global FMCG Brand
Are you a commercially savvy and operationally driven Financial Controller ready to make your mark with a global FMCG leader?
We're hiring a hands-on, strategic Financial Controller to take full ownership of financial operations across both the Irish industrial plant and commercial branch. This Cork-based role sits at the heart of decision-making—supporting growth, optimising performance, and directly influencing commercial and operational outcomes.
If you're a qualified accountant with strong manufacturing, plant or commercial finance experience, this role offers a career-defining leadership opportunity.
Why This Role Stands Out
Join a world-class FMCG brand in a phase of growth
Own the full financial strategy across plant & commercial operations
Work closely with senior leadership in a high-impact, trusted role
Hybrid working available | Excellent salary & benefits | Cork-based

Industrial Finance Leadership
* Lead month-end reporting and plant performance tracking
* Own budgets, forecasts, and plant cost control strategies
* Partner with plant leadership on KPI improvement and margin gains
Commercial Business Partnering
* Drive sales & pricing analysis, ROI modelling, and P&L reporting
* Work with commercial leaders to improve customer insights and strategy
* Manage financial planning cycles – SAF, budgets, reforecasts
What You'll Bring
* ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified accountant
* 10+ years’ experience in commercial and industrial finance (FMCG/manufacturing ideal)
* Strong knowledge of IFRS and local GAAP
* Proficiency in SAP, Hyperion & Advanced Excel
* A proven track record of leading teams & partnering with operations/sales leaders
This is your chance to bring strategic thinking, financial leadership, and operational insight to a fast-paced, well-established global brand.
