Financial Controller - Investment Firm - Glasgow, Scotland - #2160522

Our client is a large global investment fund whose Glasgow office is a key hub supporting their global investment activity. As a result of firm growth, they're now looking to hire a financial controller.

As Financial Controller, you'll lead the team responsible for group accounting across the global business. You'll own the group month-end and year-end close, including multi-entity consolidation, intercompany reconciliation and statutory reporting. You'll manage the relationship with external auditors and keep the control environment strong as the firm grows. You'll also improve processes and systems (with a focus on integrating AI solutions), and work closely with the CFO and finance colleagues in other offices.

For this we are looking to speak with qualified accountants (ACA, ICAS, ACCA or CIMA) with solid group consolidation experience in a multi-entity, multi-currency setting, ideally within asset management or the wider financial services sector. It is important to have led a team before and be an excellent communicator.

The firm is looking to hire someone who'll get a senior, visible role with real influence in a collaborative, well-resourced global firm. The package is competitive with excellent base/bonus and a wide range of benefits. The firm has excellent retention which reflects its positive culture. The role is based in Glasgow with hybrid working (though will ideally have someone mostly office based).
