Have you ever considered stepping into a Financial Controller‑style role within professional services, without giving up flexibility?
We’re delighted to be supporting a market‑leading team as they build out their leadership capability with a newly created Associate Director role.
This is a senior, client‑facing role that sits firmly in operational accounting, supporting multinational clients with:
- Month‑end close, P&L reporting, GL ownership, reconciliations and journals
- Oversight and review of work delivered by Managers and below (you won’t be doing the day‑to‑day processing)
- Acting as the primary client contact, with responsibility for delivery quality and relationship management
The role is best described as a Financial Controller‑type position in a multinational or shared services environment. You’ll be trusted to operate autonomously, take ownership of client relationships, and play a part in growing the client base over time.
Key requirements:
- Background in industry (MNC / SSC) rather than pure practice
- Strong systems exposure (SAP, Oracle, Workday)
- Solid technical accounting knowledge (US GAAP / IFRS)
- Comfortable in a review, oversight and stakeholder‑management role
Working model:
- All work delivered from the firm’s Dublin office (no client‑site work)
- c.6 days per month onsite
- No expectation to be in the office at month‑end
This will suit someone who enjoys leading from the front, values flexibility, and wants to operate at a senior level without being tied to constant on‑site client work.
