Future Progression: Opportunity to step into a CFO role

Company Overview:
Join a fast-growing FX trading group operating under two brands with a footprint across multiple jurisdictions. With both onshore and offshore regulated entities, we’re seeking a driven and experienced Financial Controller to lead the finance function, provide critical strategic insights, and play a key role in our future growth.


Role Summary:
This is a senior leadership role, ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic, multi-entity environment and is looking to progress into a CFO position. The successful candidate will be responsible for financial control across five entities — including operations in Cyprus, Seychelles,Spain and Malta.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Team Leadership: Manage and support a small finance team of 3 professionals based in Malta. Regular travel to Malta is expected to maintain close collaboration and leadership on-site.
  • Financial Oversight: Lead financial operations across five entities, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting in compliance with IFRS and internal governance standards.
  • Reporting & Compliance: Own the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes. Ensure all reports meet regulatory and business requirements.
  • Strategic Planning: Lead the annual budgeting and forecasting cycles. Provide detailed variance analysis and financial insights to the executive team to guide strategic decisions.
  • Cash Flow Management: Conduct weekly cash flow forecasting to ensure liquidity across the group, flagging any potential issues to senior management proactively.
  • Executive Collaboration: Report directly to the Executive Team, acting as a key financial advisor across both brands.
  • Future CFO: As the business does not currently have a CFO, the right candidate will be expected to progress into this position, taking full ownership of the financial strategy and oversight of the group.
 
Required Experience & Skills:
  • FX Industry Experience is a must: applicants without prior FX / trading / brokerage experience will not be considered.
  • Proven experience in a Financial Controller or Head of Finance role within a multi-entity, international group.
  • Strong command of IFRS and statutory reporting, particularly in regulated environments.
  • Excellent leadership skills, with a track record of managing and developing small finance teams.
  • Comfortable operating across jurisdictions and collaborating cross-functionally with international teams.
  • Qualified accountant (e.g. ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with strong analytical and financial modelling skills.
  • Willingness and ability to travel regularly to Malta.
Desirable:
  • Experience working with both regulated and offshore-regulated entities.
  • Prior involvement in scaling finance functions or transitioning into a CFO-level role.
  • Familiarity with FX business operational models, capital adequacy, and liquidity requirements.

The company offers a fantastic working environment with career progression and a clear path towards a CFO role. Salary package competitive and a fully remote role.
