Job Description

Head of Financial Reporting and Control

At Mizkan Euro, we're driven by curiosity, backed by heritage, and always looking forward. As we continue to grow and evolve, we're looking for a hands-on, technically excellent finance leader to take the reins of our Financial Reporting & Control function; someone who's excited by systems, thrives on structure, and brings meaning to the numbers.

This is more than just a reporting role. You'll be stepping into a pivotal position, the right-hand to our Finance Director, helping shape our financial future through sound control, insightful reporting and smart automation.

If you've ever thought "there must be a better way to do this", and then gone and built it, we want to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

Leading the preparation of monthly management accounts, statutory accounts and consolidated group reporting, with clarity and confidence. Owning the audit process across UK and NL entities, building relationships with top-tier external auditors. Taking the lead on tax compliance, VAT returns and corporation tax across the Group. Driving cash flow forecasting and reporting, working with the wider team to ensure accurate and timely insight. Supporting the budgeting and forecasting cycle and challenging assumptions where needed. Partnering with our Executive Leadership Team on financial briefings, cost centre reviews and capital planning. Acting as a finance transformation lead, simplifying processes, introducing automation and exploring technology (including AI) to streamline the function. Being the "number two" to the Finance Director, ready to step up and represent finance in her absence.

What you'll bring

ACA or ACCA qualified (ideally Top 4 trained), with strong grounding in audit and financial reporting. Experience managing or contributing to tax compliance processes. Confidence working across the full finance cycle: management accounts, statutory reporting, forecasting and control. An eye for simplification and a passion for making finance smarter, cleaner, and more connected. Strong commercial curiosity, you want to understand the business behind the numbers. Excellent communication skills, you're comfortable presenting to senior leaders and translating technical concepts into plain English. A calm and logical thinker, with the confidence to challenge, the resilience to improve, and the humility to learn.

What we can offer

A self-sufficient, supportive finance team with two experienced direct reports (AP/AR and cost centre lead). The chance to lead and shape digital finance transformation projects. High visibility across the organisation: this is a role that matters. A collaborative and people-first culture, where new ideas are welcomed and improvement is encouraged. The opportunity to step into a leadership pipeline and become a key figure in our future.

If you're a technically sharp finance leader who's looking for a broader business role, this could be the step you've been waiting for. We're open to experienced industry professionals or high-potential ACA-qualified candidates coming out of practice with the right mindset and hunger to grow.
