Support post-acquisition integration, due diligence processes, and system alignment
Drive automation and process improvements to streamline finance operations
Develop dashboards and management reports using Power BI or similar tools
Lead and develop the finance team, fostering a high-performance and collaborative culture
Who we are looking for:
Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with 3–5 years post-qualification experience
Strong technical accounting skills and commercial awareness
