Development of robust control frameworks and continuous improvement initiatives

Payroll ownership across HQ and stores with insightful cost tracking

Year-end audit management and statutory reporting

Business partnering with senior leadership to drive commercial performance

Budgeting, reforesting, margin tracking, and working capital management

Ensuring compliance with tax and regulatory requirements

What you'll bring:

ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualified with experience in a retail-led environment

Excellent technical accounting skills and a commercial mindset

Inspiring leadership style with a proactive, solutions-first approach

A cool head under pressure, strong attention to detail, and advanced Excel skills

This is a rare chance to shape the future of brands that are not just part of the high street-they're part of the fabric of British style.
