FINANCIAL CONTROLLER HYBRID ROLE WITH TIME IN DUNDEE AND KIRRIEMUIR SITES ATTRACTIVE BASE SALARY PACKAGE PLUS GENEROUS BENEFITS GRW Talent's client has a rich history making textiles in Scotland since the late 1800s. Today, they are a vibrant fast growing international industrial and technical textiles company with production bases in Scotland, USA and China. The business continues to navigate tough global headwinds successfully and has ambitious long term growth plans to consolidate two Scottish sites into one super manufacturing and logistics hub in Dundee, whilst also penetrating and growing Tier 1 and 2 international customers. To help facilitate this growth and ensure ongoing stability, the business now needs to recruit a Financial Controller. Candidates will need to be able to commute to Dundee and the current HQ in Kirriemuir (Angus) 3 days per week. Reporting to the CFO, the Financial Controller will lead and manage a small but dedicated finance function. The role is a good blend of week in, month out, quarter in-out balanced accounting and finance performance for a global manufacturing business, but with one strategic eye to the future growth and business development plans. This will include finance and contingency planning and finance modelling to suit a future business "to be" state. Key responsibilities will include: Month-end close ownership: P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, deadline, with commentary against budget. Cash and working capital management to short, medium and longer term plans. FX management across currencies. Hedging, forward contract management, managing currency exposure on both purchase orders and sales contracts. Costing and margin control: standard costing for manufactured product, variance analysis (material usage, labour, overhead recovery), landed cost calculations including duty and freight. Inventory accounting: raw materials, WIP, finished goods valuation, obsolescence provisions. Payroll, VAT/duty compliance, intrastate/customs management via you and the team. Managing the audit, statutory accounts, and relationship with banks. Budgeting and rolling forecasts, including scenario planning on new customers, sales deals and raw material supplies. Pricing support: giving sales real margin data by product, customer, and market so we don't sell at a loss after FX and freight. Funding strategy: working capital facilities, capex appraisal for machinery (textile plant is capital-hungry), grant funding applications. Systems improvement and support the broader business to better integrate SAP. Support CFO with board packs and board reporting for Tier 1 and 2 leadership groups. The relevant candidate is ideally educated to degree calibre in Accounting and Finance and a qualified accountant (ACCA, CIMA or similar). We are open to candidates from a range of backgrounds, however, we would be especially keen to hear from candidates who have worked in other manufacturing, engineering or construction environments. The nature of the market and volatility globally, means you are used to working to tight margins and taking short, medium and long term decisions to impact the financial health of the business. Multi-currency exposure, leading teams, customs management, managing multiple revenue streams and a good appreciation of SAP and ERP integration (across modules ideally) is a plus. This represents an unparalleled opportunity for both proven Financial Controllers and aspiring Finance Managers looking to step up. With full autonomy and control of your job, you will be highly visible across the company. Your base salary is supplemented by flexible and hybrid working conditions and a benefits package. However, the scope and challenge should be a key driver in taking this role. Future salary and career growth are on offer for dedicated employees. To apply to our role please send your CV to Katie Hydes at Grw Talent.

If you've reached the point in practice where you want to spend less time preparing accounts and more time advising clients, leading people and building relationships, this Partner track opportunity could be a very worthwhile move. As Client Manager, you'll take ownership of a varied portfolio of owner-managed businesses and become someone clients genuinely turn to for advice. There's an established team of accounts staff handling much of the day-to-day preparation, giving you more time to review, solve complex issues and have meaningful conversations with business leaders about their businesses and personal tax positions. Perhaps you're already a Client Manager / Senior Accountant looking for greater flexibility and longer-term progression. Or you're an Accounts Senior or Assistant Manager who knows you're ready for that next step. Either way, there's scope to build a career all the way through to Partner, while working within a practice where flexibility and life outside work are genuinely valued. The people already working there talk about genuinely enjoying coming to work. They describe a friendly, cooperative team, senior leaders who support them professionally and personally, and flexibility that allows them to fit work around families, hobbies and commitments outside the office. One employee even describes it as the best accountancy practice they've worked for. That says rather more about the culture than another list of corporate values ever could. Role Overview Manage a varied portfolio of owner-managed businesses across sectors including SaaS technology, manufacturing, hospitality, healthcare and consultancy Build trusted relationships, providing proactive accounting, business and personal tax advice Oversee and support a team of accounts staff, reviewing work and assisting with more complex assignments Manage year-end accounts, corporation tax, management accounts and associated deadlines Advise business owners on practical tax planning, including tax-efficient ways of extracting profits Get involved in wider assignments such as R&D tax claims, with specialist colleagues available for higher-level tax matters. The Ideal Candidate Strong experience within an accountancy practice, whether as a Client Manager, Senior Accountant, Assistant Manager or experienced Senior level Ideally qualified ACCA, ACA or equivalent Comfortable managing client relationships and having advisory conversations with business owners Good working knowledge of tax as well as accounts for owner-managed businesses Able to review work, support colleagues and confidently handle more complex matters Familiarity with accounting software packages such as TaxCalc, Xero, QuickBooks etc. What's on Offer Hybrid working. Clear career progression, including a route through to Partner for the right person. Genuine flexibility around family and personal commitments. A supportive, friendly environment where people are trusted and encouraged to develop. Greater opportunity to focus on portfolio relationship management and advisory work. Parking pass provided. Personal development opportunities and a culture that values life outside work.
