This role is suited to a technically strong, proactive finance professional who can take ownership of the group reporting, working confidently with stakeholders across multiple entities, driving issues through to resolution, and ensuring deadlines are met without compromise. You'll be a calm, dependable pair of hands in a high-performing team.

• Own the end-to-end group financial reporting cycle, ensuring accurate and timely monthly, half-year, and year-end group reporting deliverables across a multi-entity, acquisitive business.
• Lead the statutory reporting process and coordinate audit delivery, ensuring a high standard of audit evidence, clear documentation, and on-time completion.
• Drive the group consolidation process, including intercompany reconciliation, eliminations, and consistency of reporting across entities, working closely with local finance teams.
• Maintain and enhance technical accounting under IFRS, producing high-quality papers and guidance for complex areas, with exposure to US GAAP a plus.
• Partner closely with the Senior Director Financial Controller and VP of Finance as a trusted right-hand, providing clear, concise insight and ensuring "brilliant basics" are consistently delivered.
• Support acquisition accounting and integration from a reporting perspective, helping bring newly acquired businesses into the group reporting model and timetable.
• Improve reporting processes, controls, and timelines through standardisation and automation, leveraging tools such as Excel and Power BI where appropriate.
• Manage and develop a small team

• Proven, hands-on experience owning group reporting deliverables end-to-end, including group consolidation, technical accounting papers, and month-end/quarter-end/year-end reporting cycles.
• M&A exposure (acquisitions and integration from a reporting and consolidation perspective) is highly desirable; private equity experience is a plus but not essential.
• Strong IFRS capability is essential; exposure to US GAAP is desirable given international growth.
• Experience managing and developing small teams and driving high standards of output.
• Strong Excel skills and confidence working with reporting and analytics tools (e.g., Power BI
