Company: HEADSTAR

Job Type: Permanent, FullTime

Salary: £55,000 per annum

Financial Controller | £55k-£65k | Qualified or QBE

This service business in central Leeds is growing fast-and the numbers need someone who can keep up.

They need a Financial Controller who can do more than just close the books. Someone who gets the detail right, sees the bigger picture, and isn't afraid to say, "This doesn't stack up."

You'll be the finance lead on the ground. Reporting to the Group CFO, but running the show day to day. It's a hands-on role with a clear seat at the table.

What You'll Actually Be Doing:
  • Own the numbers-management accounts, forecasts, reporting, cash flow

  • Improve systems and controls, not just maintain them

  • Handle HMRC, VAT, R&D claims, and the audit with zero fuss

  • Lead and develop a small team

  • Present clear insights to help the business grow, profitably

What You'll Need:
  • Qualified (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) or QBE with solid experience

  • Strong on systems-Xero, Sage, Excel, Spotlight

  • Commercially sharp and confident with senior stakeholders

  • Exposure to a senior finance role where you've made a difference

What You'll Get:
  • Salary of £55,000 - £65,000 per annum

  • Autonomy, trust, and a leadership role in a growing business

If you like the sound of real responsibility-and not having to fight for a seat at the table-then this could be worth a conversation.
