Financial Controller

Futures seek to appoint a Financial Controller to take the lead on standard financial department activities (SAP, Payroll, Purchase Ledger, Credit Control, Management Accounts, P&L, etc.) for a fast paced engineering business in Sheffield. The Financial Controller role will not only be responsible for financial reporting but will also be tasked with re-engineering current finance processes to improve working practices. This is a hands-on role focused on day-to-day doing rather than managing a team. You will be given the autonomy to run the department as you see fit and be working in a welcoming and supportive culture where you are encouraged to be involved outside of just strict accountancy.
