We’re looking for an ambitious, hands-on Group Financial Controller to take ownership of our core finance function and play a key role in our next stage of growth.

As Group Financial Controller, you’ll lead our day-to-day finance operations while building a scalable finance function that can support rapid international growth.

  • Lead multi-entity consolidation and intercompany accounting

  • Ensure compliance with IFRS and local tax requirements

  • Manage relationships with external auditors, tax advisors, and regulatory bodies

  • Oversee VAT, corporation tax, R&D tax credits, and international compliance requirements

Systems & process improvement

  • Improve financial systems, reporting automation, and operational workflows

  • Help scale finance infrastructure to support international growth and future funding events

  • Drive process standardisation and internal control enhancements across entities

  • Partner with RevOps and commercial teams around contract management, data accuracy, and revenue processes

About you:

  • ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified (or equivalent)

  • Significant experience in a Financial Controller or senior finance role

  • Background in SaaS, technology, or high-growth startup environments

  • Strong technical accounting and group consolidation experience

  • Proven experience managing audits and multi-entity structures

  • Deep understanding of SaaS revenue recognition and subscription business models

  • Comfortable operating both strategically and being hands-on in the detail

  • Advanced Excel and finance systems experience (experience with tools like Campfire and/or NetSuite is a plus)

  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to influence and partner with senior stakeholders

  • Experience supporting PE/VC-backed businesses is highly desirable

What we offer:

We want you to do your best work and feel supported — inside and outside of work. Here are some of the benefits you can expect:

  • Fully remote working, with flexibility to structure your day around outcomes, not hours

  • 28 days of paid annual leave, plus public holidays. wellbeing days and your birthday off!
