- Strengthen financial processes, controls, and reporting consistency across the region
- Support commercial planning, scenario analysis, and decision support activity
- Work closely with embedded site controllers and district finance teams in a matrix structure
About You
- CPA or equivalent accounting qualification preferred
- 5 years’ experience in senior finance or controller-type roles
- Strong background in FP&A, financial reporting, and multi-site environments
- Experience in hospitality, contract catering, venues, or similar high-volume operations preferred
- Strong commercial judgement with the ability to influence operational stakeholders
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, constantly evolving environment
- Confident communicator who can simplify complex financial information for non-finance teams
- Someone who enjoys being embedded in the business rather than working in isolation from it
