apartmentHarper May Ltd placeSlough calendar_month 
In a multi-site restaurant business, small changes add up quickly. Labour, margin, waste, supplier costs, and weekly trading all feed into performance, and finance needs to be close enough to the operation to spot what’s shifting before it becomes a problem.

This growing hospitality group is continuing to invest in new sites, systems, and operational improvement, and they are now seeking a Financial Controller to strengthen reporting, tighten control, and provide commercial insight across the estate.

The Role

Reporting into senior finance leadership, the Financial Controller will take ownership of financial reporting, control, and compliance, while working closely with operational teams to support site-level performance. The role blends technical oversight with commercial partnering, helping bring clarity to profitability drivers across a fast-moving, service-led environment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Oversee month-end and year-end close processes, ensuring accurate financial reporting
  • Produce management accounts and statutory financial statements
  • Maintain strong financial controls, governance, and balance sheet integrity
  • Lead audit processes and manage relationships with external auditors
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow management
  • Partner with operations on site profitability, labour costs, and margin performance
  • Review and improve finance processes, systems, and reporting frameworks
  • Ensure compliance with accounting standards and statutory requirements
Candidate Profile
  • ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified
  • Previous experience in restaurants, hospitality, or multi-site consumer businesses
  • Strong technical accounting and financial reporting expertise
  • Commercial mindset with the ability to support operational decision-making
  • Confident communicator comfortable working with non-finance stakeholders
  • Detail-focused and comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment
