Full job descriptionGroup Financial Controller
£110,000 – £115,000 + Bonus + Benefits
Remote
About the role
We’re partnering exclusively with a private equity-backed, global consulting business to find a Group Financial Controller to take ownership of financial control across the group. This is a senior, high-visibility role reporting directly into the Group Finance Director, with two Group Finance Managers reporting to you.
You’ll be the backbone of the group’s financial integrity — leading audit, tax compliance, statutory reporting and consolidations across a multi-entity, multi-currency environment, while also driving process improvement and technology adoption across the finance function. It’s a role for someone who wants genuine ownership, a seat close to the top table, and the chance to shape how a growing, acquisitive business runs its finances.
What you’ll be doing
*Overseeing month-end and year-end close across the group, and directing the management accounts team to ensure robust processes and consistent quality
*Leading the annual group audit as the key point of contact for external auditors, and strengthening the internal control framework across all business units
*Owning UK and US corporate tax compliance, working closely with external tax advisors
*Supporting the monthly and annual group consolidation process and overseeing statutory accounts preparation across legal entities
*Maintaining transfer pricing documentation and ensuring timely statutory and regulatory filings
*Supporting the integration of newly acquired businesses — aligning accounting policies, reporting processes and finance systems
*Championing finance transformation, including financial close acceleration and the adoption of technology and AI tools
*Partnering with FP&A and Commercial Finance, and deputising for the Group FD when required
What we’re looking for
*Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
*Proven experience leading audits and group consolidations in a global, multi-entity, multi-currency environment
*Strong working knowledge of UK and US tax compliance, plus IFRS, FRS 102 and US GAAP
*Background in a private equity-backed business, ideally within professional services or consulting
*A track record of leading finance transformation or systems change initiatives
*Advanced to expert Excel skills; experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a plus
*Strong people leadership skills and a collaborative, influential communication style
