Who We Need
We're looking for a Financial Controller who's ready to own the numbers and help build the finance function as the business scales.

- Prepare and review financial statements in line with UK/Irish GAAP requirements

- Ensure compliance with UK and Irish tax, statutory, and regulatory requirements
- Partner with leadership to provide financial insight that drives decision-making
- Build and strengthen internal controls and financial processes as the company scales
- Support audit processes and liaise with external accountants/auditors
What We're Looking For
- Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent)
- Proven experience as a Financial Controller or in a senior finance role
- Strong knowledge of UK and/or Irish statutory and tax requirements
- Hands-on experience managing month-end close and financial reporting
- Fluency with US GAAP
- Experience in a PE-backed or multi-entity environment
- Familiarity with ERP/accounting platforms (Sage, NetSuite, or similar)
- Experience operating across both UK and Irish entities
