If you're a qualified accountant with strong technical expertise and experience operating in complex, multinational environments, this is a rare opportunity to step into a high-visibility global transformation project.

We're looking for a Senior Finance Manager who can bring both technical depth and a commercial mindset to a large-scale carve-out programme. This is not a BAU role you will be at the centre of a strategic initiative, influencing outcomes and ensuring the integrity of critical financial processes across multiple regions.

You'll be working alongside senior stakeholders globally, helping to drive accuracy, consistency and control during a complex period of change.

What makes this role stand out

• A role that blends technical accounting, control oversight and project delivery

• Provide expert challenge and validation of Net Economic Benefit (NEB) calculations and settlements
• Ensure consistency and compliance across regions and teams
• Identify financial and reporting risks, strengthening controls where needed
• Support audit activity with clear, well-documented outputs
• Partner with global stakeholders across Finance, Tax, Treasury and shared services
• Contribute to key project milestones within a complex carve-out environment
• Drive standardisation and continuous improvement across processes

What we're looking for

• Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CPA or equivalent)
• Strong US GAAP experience within a multinational environment
• Proven background in complex accounting, reporting or controllership roles
• Experience supporting transformation, carve-out or divestiture activity is highly desirable
• Strong systems experience (SAP, Hyperion or similar)
• Ability to operate confidently in a matrixed, global organisation
• Excellent analytical judgement and attention to detail
• Credible communicator, comfortable working with senior stakeholders

The right fit
