About the Role
M2P
Fintech is looking for a Financial Controller to own
the day-to-day and month-to-month financial engine of the group — the accuracy
of the books, the movement of cash, and the health of working capital. The
focus is on actuals controls, liquidity, compliance, and the operational rigour
that keeps a fast-scaling, regulated fintech financially sound.
Success looks like clean books, an audit
that closes without surprises, cash that is always visible and optimally
deployed, and working capital that funds growth rather than constraining it.
This is a chance to own the financial
backbone of a company that is redefining how the world builds financial
products — at the exact stage where controllership, treasury, and
working-capital rigour make the difference between scaling well and scaling painfully.
You will build the systems, controls, and cash discipline that a
soon-to-be-public, global fintech runs on.
