Job Description

Your new company 
You'll be joining a purpose‑driven, regulated financial services organisation with a strong heritage and a clear ambition for sustainable growth. The environment is collaborative, inclusive and results‑focused, with a strong emphasis on control, governance and continuous improvement. People are valued, diverse perspectives are encouraged, and leaders are empowered to make a real impact.

Your new role 
As Financial Controller, you will lead the financial control function, ensuring accurate, timely and well‑controlled financial information that underpins all financial and regulatory reporting. You'll own the month‑end close and balance sheet integrity, oversee complex technical accounting areas, and maintain a strong risk and control framework. In addition, you'll lead a large, mixed‑capability team, oversee key finance operations including AP, expenses, treasury back office and tax processes, and drive system, process and automation improvements across the function.

What you'll need to succeed 
You'll be a qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA accountant with strong financial services experience, ideally within banking. You'll bring deep technical accounting knowledge, proven leadership of sizeable teams and a track record of delivering change in a controlled, regulated environment. Success in this role requires confidence in stakeholder engagement, the ability to challenge effectively, and a proactive mindset focused on continuous improvement, accuracy and operational excellence.

What you'll get in return 
You'll receive a competitive base salary plus discretionary bonus and a comprehensive benefits package, alongside hybrid working arrangements. The role offers genuine career progression, ongoing professional development and the opportunity to lead a critical function with real influence. Most importantly, you'll have the chance to make a meaningful impact within an organisation that values autonomy, wellbeing and high-quality leadership.
