Our client is a highly regarded hedge fund with an exceptional track record of delivering stable returns and are ranked in the top quartile amongst their peers. They are looking to hire an experienced Financial Controller who has extensive Process Improvement experience.
This role will report into the CFO and work within a lean team of 2. The main focus of the role will be to assess the current back-office infrastructure (predominantly looking at the accounting processes but this will also overlap to some operational and risk elements) to help enhance and streamline their reporting. They will give you full autonomy to identify opportunities and implement improvements with the support of the wider team. This will involve working across the investment team, operations, risk and liaising with C-Suite on a regular basis. Currently their processes are extremely manual, and use excel for most work. Initial projects are likely to be focused around cashflow management, GL automation and reconciliations.
For this we are looking for a qualified accountant with minimum 3 years PQE. Candidates should have experience working within a buy-side firm and have a long track record of successfully implementing improvements and automating workflows. Exposure to SQL / VBA is highly desirable.
The team are looking to pay up to £110k for the right candidate, as well as offering a discretionary bonus (we would expect this to be between 20-40% dependant on performance) and market leading benefits. The firm has extremely impressive offices in central London with canteen, barista, gym etc. They generally work 4 days a week in the office but have flexibility to work from home more, or abroad, where needed.
