Step Into a Strategic Role at a Rapidly Growing Business
Financial Controller - Fixed Term
Are you a commercially minded finance leader ready to take on a pivotal role during an exciting phase of acquisition and growth?
Job Overview / Purpose
HSL Compliance Ltd, a well-established and fast-growing services business, is looking for an experienced Interim Financial Controller to oversee and integrate the finance operations of its recently acquired businesses. This is more than just a numbers role -- it's a rare opportunity to shape, streamline and align financial functions post-acquisition and play a key role in future integrations.
This is a hands-on, strategic position where you'll act as the bridge between acquired companies and the wider HSL finance team, ensuring consistency, compliance, and clarity across the board.
Own the end-to-end finance function for newly acquired businesses
Deliver robust reporting, accurate budgeting, and clear forecasting
Lead and support both internal and external finance teams across entities
Align financial controls and reporting to group standards post-acquisition
Manage the audit process, tax compliance, and financial regulation adherence
Partner with operational teams to provide strategic financial insight
Travel as required to support finance teams on-site and drive successful integration
What we're looking for:
We're looking for a confident, adaptable finance leader -- someone who thrives in complexity, enjoys building structure from ambiguity, and sees opportunities in challenges.
You're calm under pressure and unphased by juggling multiple priorities across several businesses
You enjoy working collaboratively but know when to lead with authority and clarity
You're highly organised, reliable, and always one step ahead when it comes to planning and forecasting
You're a natural communicator who can work just as easily with operational teams as with senior leadership
You take pride in getting things right -- with accuracy, consistency, and efficiency at your core
You're not afraid to get into the detail but also know when to zoom out and offer strategic perspective
You thrive in a changing environment and have the mindset to guide others through change confidently
