Job Description - Financial Controller

Financial Controller

Location: Kent (3 days in office, 2 WFH)

Package: £60,000-£70,000

Reporting to: Group Finance Director

The Opportunity

We are working with a rapidly growing PE-backed managed service provider. The organisation is well-established, cash-generative and entering a critical value-creation phase ahead of a planned exit in the next 2-3 years.

This is an exciting opportunity for a first or second move from practice to step into a broad, hands-on financial leadership role, working closely with a highly experienced finance leader who will act as a mentor and guide through PE ownership, value creation and exit preparation.

The role offers genuine exposure to audit ownership, statutory reporting, financial control and commercial insight, with scope to grow in line with the business.

Key Responsibilities

Ownership of financial accounting and month-end close, ensuring accuracy, timeliness and strong controls
Lead on statutory accounts preparation and act as the primary contact for external auditors
Manage and develop core financial controls, processes and documentation in line with PE expectations
Oversee cashflow, balance sheet integrity and working capital
Play an active role in exit readiness, including audit trail, data quality and reporting robustness
Partner with non-finance stakeholders to improve financial understanding and decision-making

Candidate Profile

ACA/ACCA qualified (preferred, CIMA also accepted)
Ideally trained in practice
Either:
- Making a first move from practice, or
- In a second-step industry role and looking for broader responsibility
Strong grounding in audit and financial reporting
Commercially curious, hands-on and comfortable in a lean environment
Confident communicator able to work closely with senior leadership

Why This Role?

Clear PE exit story with exposure to the full lifecycle
Exceptional mentorship from a seasoned finance leader
Broad, end-to-end role - not a "number two in name only"
Opportunity to significantly accelerate post-practice development
Potential for career progression and upside as the business scales toward exit
