The Financial Services team is a central part of Imperial’s Finance function, covering financial and capital accounting, governance, transactional services, financial systems and payroll. Our work supports almost every area of the Trust, from board committees and senior leaders to clinical teams and all staff through Payroll.

Following recent growth, we are creating a second Financial Controller role to work alongside the existing postholder. Together, the two FCs will broaden our leadership capacity and strengthen our ability to deliver high-quality financial services across the Trust.

About You

We are seeking a credible, forward-thinking senior finance leader who brings:

• CCAB (or equivalent) professional qualification
• Strong financial accounting, financial control and audit experience
• A track record of leading high-performing teams through change
• The ability to communicate technical issues clearly and build strong stakeholder relationships
• Experience of delivering service improvement and operating at scale
• Alignment to our values: Kind, Collaborative, Expert, Aspirational

NHS experience is welcome but not essential.

This new post will lead financial systems, transactional finance, treasury and payroll, with a clear focus on enhancing the services we provide to the organisation and putting staff development at the heart of how we do this. You will bring strong technical capability, but also the vision to shape services used by 16,000 colleagues, and to empower finance business partners to deliver their best work.

A major part of the role involves leading Imperial’s contribution to the implementation of a new North West London ERP system and the development of a new shared financial services centre. You will play a key role through design, delivery and implementation, ensuring the programme drives meaningful operational and financial improvement.

You will need to lead confidently through change, collaborate effectively across organisations, and balance senior leadership with a hands-on approach when needed. There is also significant opportunity to further develop our successful Payroll hub, which is poised for future growth.

While the existing Financial Controller leads on reporting, audit, capital and financial planning, you will contribute actively to these areas. Success will rely on close collaboration and knowledge sharing across both FC roles and the wider management team.
