International Consumer Business High Growth Broad Leadership Role

Maidenhead Hybrid Working

£80,000 - £90,000 + Bonus + Benefits

We Do Group are partnering with a fast-growing international consumer business that has built a highly regarded brand and has ambitious plans for continued growth.

They are now hiring a Finance Controller to take ownership of the day-to-day finance function, lead the team and help build the processes, controls and reporting needed as the business continues to scale.

This is a genuinely broad role.

You'll own the core financial control and reporting piece, but also get involved in budgeting, forecasting, cash flow, process improvement and wider commercial finance.

The role will include:

• Leading and developing the finance team
• Owning the month-end and management accounts process
• Group reporting and consolidation across multiple international entities
• Reviewing balance sheet integrity, accounting judgements and key financial controls
• Coordinating year-end reporting and the external audit
• Producing and managing forward-looking cash flow reporting
• Supporting budgeting and forecasting across the Group
• Improving management information and providing meaningful analysis around business performance
• Strengthening processes and controls as the business grows
• Identifying opportunities to improve systems, data and automation
• Working closely with senior stakeholders across the business
• Acting as a key support and trusted deputy to the Head of Finance

This needs someone technically strong who is also comfortable leading people.

You'll need solid experience of group consolidation, financial reporting and cash flow, alongside previous experience managing and developing a finance team.

Just as importantly, they want someone with the personality and gravitas to become a go-to person within Finance - someone approachable, confident and able to build trust across the business.

You don't need to have done every part of the role before.

They are very open to someone ambitious stepping up, provided you have strong accounting foundations, consolidation experience and people management behind you. There is plenty of scope to develop your budgeting, forecasting and broader commercial finance experience in the role.

You'll be joining a growing international business where Finance is evolving quickly and there is genuine opportunity to take on more responsibility as the company continues to scale.

For someone looking for a broad Finance Controller role with team leadership, technical ownership and plenty of opportunity to develop beyond traditional financial control, this is a brilliant next step.
