A fast-growing gaming and entertainment group is looking for a Financial Controller to oversee group-level financial reporting, consolidation, and compliance across multiple jurisdictions.

  • Ensure compliance with international accounting standards and manage external audits.

  • Oversee budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis to support M&A activities.

  • Manage month-end and year-end close, cash flow, and balance sheet reconciliations.

  • Handle VAT, corporate tax compliance, and financial processes for tax incentives/grants.

  • Support financial operations, including royalty payments, invoicing, and supplier management.

  • Identify and implement process improvements, particularly post-acquisition.

The Successful Financial Controller will be:

  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent).

  • 3-5 years PQE in financial accounting, ideally in gaming, tech, or entertainment.

  • Experience with financial reporting, tax compliance, and multi-entity consolidation.

  • Proficiency in accounting software (Xero preferred) and strong Excel skills.

  • Strong analytical skills and ability to communicate financial insights to stakeholders.

  • Adaptable, proactive, and comfortable working in a dynamic, growing business.

This role is ideal for a finance professional who thrives in a fast-paced, creative industry and wants to play a key role in scaling an ambitious company.
