We’re looking for a Group Financial Controller to join Moonpig Group in a significant senior Finance leadership role. You’ll lead a broad portfolio spanning external reporting, tax, treasury, sustainability, governance, controls, risk and finance transformation, with regular exposure to our Executive team, Audit Committee and Board.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Associate or new Audit Director looking to make a senior move into industry, or an established listed-company Finance leader ready for greater breadth and influence. You’ll bring deep expertise in listed-company reporting and audit, while expanding your leadership across a wider Group Finance remit - with significant scope to grow your impact and career as Moonpig Group continues to evolve.
You don’t need to be the technical expert across every area in the remit - you’ll be leading and be supported by experienced specialists with strong expertise in their respective disciplines. What matters is the confidence and judgement to lead across a broad portfolio, take ownership as new priorities emerge, and get up to speed quickly when working in an ambiguous or unfamiliar environment.
This is a hybrid role in our London Head Office (2 days a week: Tuesdays and Thursdays)
Key Responsibilities:
- Own the delivery of Group external reporting under IFRS, including the half-year and full-year reporting processes, alongside statutory reporting across all jurisdictions
- Lead the Group audit process, managing external auditor relationships and ensuring a high-quality and effective audit cycle
- Provide leadership on technical accounting matters, including the development and application of robust accounting policies and governance
- Prepare high-quality papers and reporting for the Audit Committee and Board, bringing clarity and sound judgement to complex financial and regulatory matters
- Own corporate month-end processes and Group consolidation for management reporting, alongside the corporate budgeting process and Group balance sheet and cash flow forecasting
- Provide senior oversight of the Group’s global tax strategy and compliance framework, working through specialist expertise across corporation tax, VAT/GST, employment taxes, tax governance, provisioning and disclosures
- Lead through specialist expertise on the Group’s sustainability reporting agenda, evolving regulatory requirements, internal control framework and UK Corporate Governance Code Provision 29 compliance
- Provide senior oversight of treasury, liquidity, financial risk and enterprise risk management, drawing on the expertise within the team and across the business
- Oversee internal audit and the delivery of an effective, risk-based audit plan
- Set the direction for Finance systems and transformation across ERP, consolidation and reporting tools, supporting continued automation and scalability
- Partner with Technology and Finance specialists to improve financial data quality, accessibility, reporting and insight
- Lead and develop a high-performing senior team across specialist Finance disciplines, creating clarity, challenge and support while empowering subject-matter experts to lead within their areas
- Collaborate closely with FP&A, financial control and financial operations, and support strategic initiatives including M&A and international expansion
- Take ownership of new and evolving Finance priorities as they arise, applying sound judgement and quickly building sufficient understanding to provide effective leadership and decision-making
About you:
- ACA / ACCA qualified or equivalent, with significant post-qualification experience and the credibility to operate as a senior Finance leader
- Substantial experience working with UK-listed businesses, either in a senior in-house Finance position or advising listed clients within a leading audit practice
- Deep understanding of IFRS, listed-company reporting and the annual report cycle
- Significant audit leadership experience, with the ability to manage complex audits and senior auditor relationships
- Strong technical accounting judgement and the confidence to form a view on complex or ambiguous issues
- Experience engaging with senior executives, with Board and Audit Committee exposure highly valued
- Breadth across governance, controls, risk and compliance, alongside the ability and curiosity to build knowledge quickly in less familiar areas
- Strong leadership capability, with experience developing senior people and creating clarity across broad areas of accountability
- Comfortable balancing competing priorities and making sound decisions in a fast-moving, evolving environment
- Able to influence and challenge constructively, including when working with senior or demanding stakeholders
- Experience across tax, treasury, sustainability reporting, finance systems or transformation would be valuable, but deep expertise across every area is not expected
- Experience within e-commerce, technology or another fast-paced, growth-oriented business would be beneficial
