Reports to: CFO (SMF2)

Due to exciting business growth, our client, a leading international bank based in the heart of central London, is seeking a fully qualified Deputy Head of Financial Control. This is a pivotal leadership role for a “hands-on” controller who thrives on technical accuracy and process improvement. Our client is seeking someone who excels in the “engine room” of finance-someone who can own the balance sheet, shorten reporting cycles, and lead a team through significant system implementations.

Candidates from larger banking institutions are encouraged to apply, provided their experience is rooted in heavy-duty financial control rather than broad FP&A or pure strategy.

Candidates must have experience in Banking and must have UK experience

Duties of the Deputy Head of Financial Control to include:

Financial Control & Core Operations

• Balance Sheet Ownership: Full responsibility for balance sheet sign-off and high-level P&L review and presentation.
• Reporting Excellence: Oversee the full month-end close cycle, delivering accurate Management Information (MI) and group reporting to the Executive Committee and Head Office.
• Process Engineering: Drive initiatives to shorten reporting turnaround times and enhance the robust nature of the control environment.
• Audit & Compliance: Act as the primary lead for external and internal audits, ensuring all statutory requirements are met.
• Budgeting: Manage the annual budgeting process and financial planning cycles from a control perspective.
• Regulatory Support: Provide oversight for regulatory submissions (BoE, PRA); however, this is a supporting function rather than the primary focus of the role.

Transformation & System Initiatives (Change Agent)

• System Implementation: Lead the implementation of new financial systems and auto-reconciliation tools to modernize the finance function.
• Workflow Optimization: Assess and improve the integration between the Core Banking system and the Data Warehouse to streamline financial reporting.
• Control Enhancement: Redesign and implement workflows for the month-end process to eliminate manual intervention and increase data integrity.

People Management & Development

• Leadership: Manage and mentor a team of six finance professionals, fostering a high-performance, “roll-up-your-sleeves” culture.

Requirements for the successful Deputy Head of Financial Control include:

• Candidates must have Banking and UK experience.
• Candidates must be educated to University degree level.
• Core Competency: A proven track record in Financial Control is essential. This includes balance sheet substantiation, P&L review, and group reporting.
• Change Management: Demonstrable experience in system implementation and improving/shortening the month-end reporting process.
• Qualifications: ACA or ACCA qualified with substantial post-qualification experience in a banking environment.
• Leadership: Experience managing small-to-medium finance teams (approx. 6 people).
• Technical Skills: Advanced Excel is mandatory; experience with Power BI or similar visualization tools for control reporting is highly desirable.

You shall be working on a whole host of different clients across a variety of different sectors from OMB's (owner managed businesses) right through to substantial corporations as well as encountering charitable / NFP organisations.
