Financial Controller | Marketing & Brand Experience | Central London | £70,000 | Permanent Role Robert Half are partnering with a growing international marketing and brand experience business to recruit a Financial Controller into its London-based finance team. Reporting to the Finance Director, this is a broad Financial Controller role with responsibility across financial operations, reporting, controls and compliance. The business operates with an outsourced accounting provider who manages much of the day-to-day bookkeeping and processing. As a result, this role is less about transactional processing and more about ownership, oversight and control - reviewing the numbers, challenging where necessary, ensuring robust processes are in place and providing accurate financial information to the senior finance team. This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong accountant who enjoys working in a hands-on environment and wants broad exposure across month-end, revenue recognition, cash flow, payroll, audit, financial controls and process improvement. About the Position Reporting to the Finance Director, you will be responsible for: <ul><li>Leading the annual external audit process, including preparing the audit file, coordinating samples and testing, resolving auditor queries and managing the process through to completion.</li><li> Taking ownership of revenue recognition and ensuring the appropriate accounting treatment is applied in line with IFRS.</li><li>Ensuring the accuracy and integrity of financial reporting and maintaining robust balance sheet controls.</li><li>Managing and overseeing the outsourced accounting provider, reviewing their work, resolving issues and providing direction where improvements or corrections are required.</li><li>Leading the month-end and year-end close processes, including journals, reconciliations, supporting schedules and management accounts.</li><li>Overseeing payroll, including new starters, leavers, benefits and salary changes, ensuring the process is accurate and compliant.</li><li>Monitoring cash flow and working capital, preparing cash flow projections and highlighting potential cash pressures or opportunities.</li><li>Supporting budgeting, forecasting and financial performance analysis across the business.</li><li>Maintaining the fixed asset and wider asset registers, ensuring assets are accurately recorded, tracked, valued and depreciated.</li><li>Establishing and maintaining strong accounting policies, procedures and internal controls to mitigate financial risk.</li><li>Managing statutory and regulatory compliance requirements, including UK tax and VAT obligations.</li></ul> What We're Looking For <ul><li>Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA).</li><li>Proven experience in a Financial Accounting position.</li><li>Strong technical accounting knowledge, particularly around revenue recognition, IFRS and financial controls.</li><li>Preference for someone who is audit trained and has since moved into a Financial Accounting position within a small to medium-sized business. However, technically proficient industry-trained Financial Accountants will also be considered.</li><li>Strong experience across month-end and year-end close, management accounts, reconciliations and balance sheet governance.</li><li>Experience across payroll, cash flow, working capital and statutory compliance.</li><li>Strong external audit experience, with the ability to manage the audit process and act as the main point of contact for auditors.</li><li>Comfortable working in a hands-on environment where you will need to get into the detail rather than simply manage from a distance.</li></ul> Here's What's Waiting for You <ul><li>£70,000 salary depending on experience.</li><li>Hybrid working from a Central London office.</li><li>A broad Financial Controller role with genuine ownership across the finance function.</li><li>Significant responsibility across financial control, reporting, cash flow, compliance, audit and operational finance.</li><li>Scope to improve existing processes, controls and reporting rather than simply maintaining the status quo.</li><li>An international environment, working closely with senior stakeholders based in both the UK and abroad.</li></ul> Why This Role Could Be Your Next Move This is a great opportunity for a technically strong accountant looking for a broad Financial Controller position where they can genuinely take ownership of the numbers and have an impact on how the finance function operates. The role offers a good balance between technical accounting and hands-on financial control, alongside exposure to cash flow, working capital, audit, compliance, financial analysis and process improvement. You'll be working closely with senior finance stakeholders and will have the opportunity to strengthen processes, controls and reporting across the business. For someone who enjoys being close to the detail, has strong technical accounting knowledge and wants a role where they can combine financial control with commercial and operational insight, this could be an excellent next move.Robert Half Ltd acts as an employment business for temporary positions and an employment agency for permanent positions.
