Our client is a household name with a long history of being a trusted brand and business in the UK and Irish markets. With 80% revenue growth in the past 4 years, the business is currently in a new growth cycle, and it's an interesting time to join.
They are always looking at new business models and acquisitions; as such, a role like this will suit someone who is curious, open-minded, and technically strong as an accountant. You will need to understand potential conflicts, issues, pros and cons with any new systems, automation, acquisition and the flow through finance. The role will be ad hoc and offer variety.
* You will report to and liaise closely with the CFO, executives and the board.
* Work closely with 4 Heads of Finance
Some examples of the work done historically and to be done currently and in the future:
* Manage the restricted cash, use models to work out balances
* Cashflow forecasting

* Reviewing all IT costs and Office costs
* Looking at staff incentives
* Monthly bank reporting packs
* ESG
* Variable and fixed costs - Including staff costs
* Business partner - with senior stakeholders
* Impairment reviews
* Investor and group reporting
This is not a typical finance role; the profile that will thrive:
* Working on their own initiative
* Get stuck into the detail (models, controls, etc) and offer perspective
* Confident in financial reporting skills
* Has project management experience
* Highly intelligent and energetic - Will be challenged by the CFO and Board, so it will be a demanding role
