• Lead and mentor a team of experienced finance professionals, promoting a culture of excellence and continuous development.

• Own and evolve the group’s financial control frameworks – from documentation to policy setting and approvals.

• Ensure robust compliance with IFRS and key regulatory standards, including the Solicitors Accounts Rules.

• Proactively drive enhancements across internal controls, risk frameworks and end-to-end financial processes.

• Act as a key contact for internal and external audits – ensuring smooth delivery and insightful reporting.

• Support the valuation and monitoring of complex financial items including disbursements and accrued income.

• Lead and support finance-led change projects, introducing automation, new technologies and best practices.

• ACA / ACCA qualified with strong post-qualification experience.

• Deep understanding of IFRS and exposure to technical accounting and statutory reporting.

• Strong stakeholder management skills with the confidence to lead change and influence at senior levels.

• Passionate about leveraging technology and new ways of working to enhance financial control.

• The chance to join a reputable, progressive and inclusive organisation.

• A rare opportunity to combine technical leadership with strategic influence.

• Flexible hybrid working – work around your life, not the other way around.

• A supportive culture that genuinely values your voice, your impact, and your wellbeing.
