Key Responsibilities Include:
  • Taking ownership of financial compliance, controls and technical reporting across the organisation

  • Acting as the go-to expert for technical accounting matters (particularly IFRS)

  • Overseeing the year-end process and managing the audit relationship

  • Supporting business-wide financial projects, including transformation, process improvements and potential M&A activity

  • Driving quality, accuracy and timeliness across all statutory and management reporting

  • Coaching and supporting a high-performing finance team, ensuring delivery of best-in-class standards

Who We're Looking For:
  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with strong post-qualified experience

  • Demonstrable technical accounting expertise (IFRS essential)

  • Experience in a senior finance leadership role within a fast-paced or complex organisation

  • Hands-on, detail-driven and comfortable working at both operational and strategic levels

  • A confident communicator who can challenge, influence and collaborate across all areas of the business

  • Available at short notice or with a relatively quick start

What's in It for You?
  • Salary up to £120,000 depending on experience

  • Hybrid working from their High Wycombe HQ

  • An inclusive, people-first culture

  • The chance to make a real impact during a crucial transition period
