Financial ControllerNewcastle upon TyneThis is a rare and genuinely exceptional opportunity in the north east for an aspirational qualified accountant to progress their career and make a real impact on the regional landscape. My client is based in Newcastle upon Tyne and is entering a pivotal phase of development. This has resulted in the requirement for a Financial Controller to help support the Board and wider business through that period and beyond. Reporting to the Chief Executive, the person will be part of the senior management team and play a key role in all aspects from day to day operations to strategic planning. As such the successful candidate will be involved in all areas of the business from top to bottom. This will include elements of day to day financial management at a detailed level through to Board meetings, investor communications and associated presentations. Some travel to financial centres in both the UK and further afield may be required to fulfill the remit.

Potential candidates should be qualified accountants with development potential.
