Full job description

We are a global video and lighting service provider with multiple locations across the UK and the US. We bring unrivalled service and technical know-how to every project we deliver, supporting exhibitions, concerts, touring, conferences, theatre, TV, film and retail.

We are seeking an experienced Financial Controller to join our finance team and play a key role in the effective management and continued development of our UK finance function. This role is currently based at our Head Office in Harlow, Essex; however, it will relocate to our new Hertford facility towards the end of this year.

Reporting to the Finance Director, the Financial Controller will oversee the day-to-day finance operation, ensuring accurate financial reporting, robust controls, effective cash flow management and compliance with all relevant financial and regulatory requirements. This is a hands-on role within a fast-moving business, combining strong technical accounting with commercial insight, team leadership and continuous improvement.

The role is not simply about producing accurate numbers. We are looking for someone who understands the story behind the numbers, can identify risks and opportunities, challenge the business where appropriate and turn financial information into practical actions that improve performance, profitability and cash flow.

Primary Responsibilities

Own the end-to-end month-end close process and prepare accurate monthly management accounts, ensuring balance sheet reconciliations and accounting treatments are complete and appropriately supported.
Analyse financial performance against budget, forecast and prior periods, identifying trends, risks and opportunities and providing clear commentary and recommendations.
Support the Finance Director with budgeting, forecasting and commercial analysis, providing financial insight into revenue, margin, profitability and project performance.
Own daily, weekly and rolling 13-week cash flow forecasting, monitoring working capital, cash collection, supplier payments and liquidity.
Work with Sales, Project Management and other teams to improve invoicing, resolve billing issues and support stronger cash collection.
Oversee payroll, pensions and employee benefits, ensuring accurate processing, appropriate controls and legislative compliance.
Maintain effective banking, payment and corporate card controls, including appropriate authorisation and segregation of duties.
Lead, manage and develop the Finance team, creating a positive, accountable and collaborative environment.
Continuously review Finance processes, systems and controls, identifying opportunities to automate, simplify and improve efficiency and accuracy.
Maintain a robust financial control environment, proactively identifying financial, operational, tax and compliance risks and ensuring appropriate action is taken.
Build strong relationships across the business and act as a trusted Finance partner, providing clear financial advice and constructively challenging decisions where appropriate
Promote greater financial accountability and early Finance involvement in commercial and operational decision-making.
Take ownership of accounting issues and discrepancies, ensuring problems are investigated and resolved rather than simply reported

Working hours
Full time, 8.30am – 5.30pm Monday to Friday with the ability to facilitate regular overtime.

About You
We are looking for an experienced Financial Controller who combines strong technical accounting skills with commercial awareness, leadership ability and a genuine desire to improve the way things are done.

You will have:

A formal accountancy qualification such as ACCA, ACA or CIMA.
Strong technical accounting and financial reporting experience
Significant experience across month-end, budgeting, forecasting, cash flow and working capital management
Experience leading, developing and supporting a Finance team
Strong financial controls, audit and statutory compliance experience
A commercially minded approach and an interest in understanding how the business makes money and how Finance can improve performance
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to understand the story behind the numbers.
Confidence to constructively challenge processes, assumptions and decisions where appropriate
A natural ownership mindset, with the ability to follow issues through to resolution and deliver results
A strong interest in process improvement, automation and finding better, more efficient ways of working.
Excellent attention to detail without losing sight of the wider commercial picture.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain financial information clearly to colleagues at all levels.
Excellent organisation and time management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and tight deadlines.
Resilience and the ability to remain calm and effective in a fast-paced and changing environment.
A positive, approachable and collaborative style, with the ability to build a high-performing team and contribute positively to the wider company culture.
A willingness to get involved and roll up your sleeves when required.
Experience of within a project based, rental, service led or live events environment would be advantageous but is not essential.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Financial Controller to make a genuine impact within a growing business, helping to develop a Finance function that is accurate, controlled, efficient and commercially focused.

If you are someone who takes ownership, enjoys solving problems and is always looking for a better way of doing things, we’d welcome your application.
