Hire a financial controller

What does a financial controller do?

A financial controller makes sure the numbers are right – from monthly closing to annual accounts and group reporting. We help you find a financial controller as a consultant when you need extra capacity or someone to cover for a period.

A financial controller makes sure accounting and financial reporting are correct and compliant. The role is often responsible for closing, group reporting, audits and internal controls.

When the year-end close is approaching, the auditors need documentation or routines need tightening up, an experienced financial controller is a safe way to bring order.
