Job description

Group Financial Controller | £70,000 - £80,000 | Enhanced pension, medical and bonus | Blackburn | Private Equity Backed Services Business | Role for an ambitious individual

Axon Moore is recruiting a Group Financial Controller for a rapidly growing private equity backed business in Blackburn.

* Please note: This is a technically broad and challenging role and therefore the client has specifically limited their search to ACA's who have previously worked in a large practice.

Our client has experienced year-on-year growth and has developed into a major UK competitor within their field of expertise. They're private equity backed and have seen rapid expansion in recent years that has been down to both organic growth (trading off their strong brand position) and through M&A fuelled by their investors. The business is now entering its next phase of development as it matures and consolidates its strong position. Key to this next phase will be the hiring of a talented and ambitious Group Financial Controller who can progress with the business in the medium term.

The ideal candidate will be ACA trained, with audit or industry experience within FS (desirable). The candidate will ideally have 4 - 8 years post-qualification experience in industry working in a technical role in a technically challenging sector. The candidate will be rounded and mature enough to assist board meetings and do presentations to a wide variety of stakeholders.

This business is renowned for investing in its people, offering excellent career development and long term benefits. It'd be an excellent place to work for the next few years.

For more information about this role, please submit an application and one of our Lancashire consultants will be in touch.
