Purpose and Objectives for the Role 

This is a hands-on, senior finance role sitting at the heart of the business. You’ll own the full financial control function, from month-end close and statutory reporting through to treasury, audit, and compliance, while also building out the division’s procurement capability from scratch. 

You’ll be the go-to person for anything finance-related across the business, working closely with the Finance Director and wider leadership team. If you’re the kind of person who wants to shape how a finance function operates rather than just maintain it, this role will suit you. 

Overall Responsibilities 

• Own the month-end process end to end. That means preparing and overseeing financial statements, producing monthly management accounts, and making sure everything is accurate, reconciled, and delivered on time.
• Run the accounting department on a day-to-day basis, managing the team, keeping operations moving, and stepping in where needed. You’re not just overseeing from a distance; you’re in the detail.
• Take full accountability for treasury, cashflow, accounts payable, and accounts receivable. Monitor cash positions, manage working capital, and flag risks before they become problems.
• Ensure all financials are fully reconciled across the balance sheet, intercompany, and bank. No loose ends. 
• Drive compliance across FTA, VAT, corporate tax, and financial audits, keeping the division clean and audit-ready at all times.
• Implement and maintain internal controls that safeguard company assets and make sure the right checks and balances are in place as the business grows.
• Manage the external audit relationship, coordinating with auditors, handling queries, and owning the process from planning through to sign-off. 
• Lead, coach, and develop the accounting team. Set clear expectations, build capability, and create an environment where people do their best work. 
• Build and enforce accounting policies, procedures, and systems. If a process doesn’t exist or doesn’t work, fix it. Continuous improvement is part of the job.
• Deliver financial analysis that actually drives decisions, partnering with leadership to support strategic planning, performance reviews, and investment decisions.
• Build the procurement function from the ground up. Create SOPs, draft procurement policy, and put a proper framework in place for how the division buys.
• Develop and execute procurement strategies that are aligned to business goals. This isn’t just admin. You’ll be shaping how we source, what we spend, and who we work with.
• Identify, evaluate, and negotiate with suppliers to secure the best terms, build strong vendor relationships, and hold suppliers to account.
• Track market trends and supplier performance, using data to inform purchasing decisions and stay ahead of cost pressures.
• Ensure procurement compliance with Group company policies and relevant regulations, working within the wider group framework while tailoring processes to divisional needs. 
• Own the procurement budget and report on cost-saving initiatives, showing where money is going and where it can be saved.
• Maintain accurate procurement records including purchases, pricing, contracts, and vendor information. Keep it clean and accessible. 

Skills Required 

• Strong technical accounting skills. You know IFRS, you know month-end, and you’ve done it at pace.
• Hands-on experience with Dynamics 365. SAP or Oracle experience is a plus. 
• Sharp analytical and problem-solving skills. You dig into the numbers, not just report them. 
• Solid leadership skills. You’ve managed teams before and know how to get the best out of people.
• Procurement experience or exposure, including supplier negotiations, contract management, and policy development. 
• A strong communicator who can translate finance into plain English for non-finance stakeholders. 
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, international environment with multiple priorities. 
• UAE corporate tax and VAT knowledge is a strong advantage. 

Qualifications Required 

• Qualified Accountant (CPA, ACCA, or equivalent). 
• Minimum 5 years’ post-qualified experience. Big 4 audit background preferred. 
• Extensive experience as a Financial Controller or equivalent senior finance role. 
• Ambitious, career-driven, and ready to step up into a leadership position.
