Candidate Profile • Qualified accountant ideally, though strong QBE profiles may be considered
  • Previous Financial Controller / Finance Manager experience

  • Hands-on, adaptable and commercially aware

  • Comfortable working in a smaller, close-knit team

  • SME or mid-sized business background preferred
