My client believes in one business strategy: to always deliver something better. They are a global investor in multiple asset classes with over £5 billion under management. They believe success is built on doing the little things well and continually looking after their customers.
The business is now looking for an experienced accountant to join them as Financial Controller of a £2 billion fund, which delivers annual revenues of over £200 million. The FC will directly manage a small team of 9 accountants and processing staff; and will have oversight and consolidation of accounts prepared by external accountants in UK and Europe and will also be the lead the relationship between the outsourced teams. There is a separate team within the business who manage the cashflow and payments and the FC will further be required to ensure this process is robust and the right amounts are approved by the right teams and paid into the right accounts. Ideally the FC will design and deliver improved financial and management reporting processes which will drive efficiencies and improvements in service. This is a senior role within the group and will report to the Head of Asset Management.
To be the right fir for the role you will be an ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualified accountant with over 5 years PQE experience in a commercial business.
