And as well as a remuneration to reflect your experience and success, their standard company benefits are enviable and there are options for everyone regardless of circumstance.
Due to natural progression we are working with the Director of Finance for one of their flourishing businesses, for a Financial Controller.
Whilst overseeing a team of twelve including two direct reports, you will
- Enjoy managing and leading all financial and commercial aspects for the business, providing effective commercial leadership by giving guidance and support in commercial decisions
