Montu UK
Role Overview
We are looking for an experienced and commercially minded Financial Controller to join us on a maternity cover contract and lead our Finance function through an exciting period of growth.

Lead the day-to-day Finance function, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting, manage and develop a small Finance team, own the month-end and year-end close processes, prepare monthly management accounts, board reporting packs, and financial analysis, and partner with senior leaders to provide commercial insights and support business decision-making.
Why It Might Be a Fit
You will be comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, have strong technical accounting knowledge with experience producing management and statutory accounts, and be able to think strategically while maintaining attention to detail.
