In order to support the growth being seen within the European business, significant evolution and change is occurring within their finance function, and a number of senior finance professionals have been appointed over the last 12 months. Following a series of promotions, an opportunity now exists for a VP of Financial Control and Reporting - this is a role which will report into the Head of Finance and be part of a 10 man financial reporting. Responsibilities will include all external and internal financial reporting for the European business (including all LOB control), with a significant focus on the re-engineering of the financial control function to ensure timely and accurate delivery of results to HO, implementation of IFRS, growth and development of the regional finance team.
