The details

The Opportunity

We have an exciting opportunity for a part-qualified finance professional to join our Group Finance team within a large, complex and international organisation.

This is a varied role offering broad exposure across Group Finance, with additional responsibility for corporate governance, legal entity management, financial controls and intercompany arrangements.

Working closely with the Group Senior Finance Manager and colleagues across Finance, Tax, Treasury and Legal, you will take ownership of a number of important Group processes while building relationships with stakeholders across our international business.

The role would suit someone studying towards a professional accounting qualification who has developed a strong grounding in finance and is now looking for broader exposure, increased responsibility and the opportunity to understand how a global Group Finance function operates.

  • Working with regional finance teams to ensure Group information is complete, accurate and maintained to a high standard.
  • Supporting quarterly Finance Committee requirements, coordinating information and providing supporting documentation.
  • Supporting the Group finance teams with intercompany lending administration and documentation.
  • Maintaining intercompany lending trackers and working closely with Treasury to ensure information and postings are accurate for month-end reporting.
  • Maintaining key Group systems and records, ensuring the accuracy and integrity of reporting data.
  • Supporting internal controls and compliance requirements, including SOX controls where applicable.
  • Producing organisational structures and supporting information for audit, onboarding and wider Group requirements.
  • Working with external advisers to coordinate statutory company filings and ensure deadlines are met.
  • Liaising with Legal and other Group functions to resolve queries and ensure information remains accurate.
  • Managing a combination of recurring monthly and quarterly responsibilities alongside ad hoc projects.
  • Supporting wider Group Finance projects as required.
  • Reviewing existing processes and identifying opportunities to improve controls, accuracy and efficiency.
