VC backed, high growth FMCG business with a unique and exciting product are looking to hire an Interim Financial Controller (as either a project or with an opportunity to go permanent for the right individual) in order to better support the operational and commercial teams.
This is a newly created position and as such interim, until the role can be fully formed and realized in which case a more permanent solution will be found. An Interim Financial Controller (Qualified, ACA, ACCA, CIMA) is needed to assist with the transformation of the finance function and improve the reporting and support to the operational and commercial teams in the wider business.
This role could be an Interim Financial Controller project in its purity and attract someone who is a career interim and likes project based positions, is a strong leader and able to manage a function and provide top quality financial information.
