We're partnering exclusively with a growing, design-led Teesside-based business in the furniture and interiors industry to recruit a confident, hands-on Financial Controller.
This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of finance in a dynamic entrepreneurial group with operations across the UK and US. You'll be the most senior person in the office day-to-day, working closely with a fractional CFO who will act as a mentor and interim Financial Controller while you embed into the role and take full ownership.
The Opportunity
This is a key appointment for the business. Following a period of change, including the closure of overseas manufacturing, a digital acquisition, and operational restructuring the business is now ready to stabilise, scale and build a strong internal finance function.
They need someone who can get stuck in, bring clarity to the chaos, and build finance from the ground up, becoming a trusted and visible leader within the organisation.

Proven experience leading finance in a hands-on, fast-paced environment
Resilient, calm under pressure, and comfortable prioritising a varied workload
Highly organised, proactive, and able to bring order and structure
A confident communicator who can influence and challenge when required
Experience in product-based, interiors, retail or e-commerce environments is a bonus
Why This Role?
Autonomy from day one - be the senior voice in finance on site
Work with a supportive CFO mentor and learn from an experienced interim FC
