  • Lead financial analysis across project margins, consultant utilisation, and business unit performance — with actionable commentary and recommendations
  • Oversee accounting, tax, and reporting obligations across our international entities (UK, Canada) and global projects
  • Manage and develop a small internal finance team responsible for payroll, AP/AR, and general accounting

Requirements:

  • Degree in Accounting, Finance, Business or Law
  • Strong knowledge of financial legislation and compliance frameworks
  • Experience across both core financial control and commercial/contractual matters
  • Systems savvy — ideally with experience in large ERP platforms (e.g. SAP, Oracle, JDE, Epicor, Tech One). We use Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
  • Advanced Excel skills as well as experience or interest in Power BI is a plus
  • International tax or invoicing experience (UK, Canada, or similar jurisdictions) highly regarded

What We Offer:

  • Ongoing training and professional development opportunities
  • The chance to make a meaningful contribution to the business
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
