We're Hiring: 
Financial Controller
Fully Remote | EU Company (Cyprus Entity)
Were looking for a hungry, ambitious finance leader ready to help shape the financial future of a fast-growing Group with businesses in advertising Solutions, e-commerce, retail and real estate.
This isn't a traditional corporate CFO role. It's a hands-on, build-from-the-ground-up opportunity where strategy and execution go hand in hand.
As we scale, were looking for someone who wants to own the numbers, influence strategy, and build the financial engine of the business.
If you have 5–7 years of strong finance experience and are ready to step into a leadership seat where your decisions will directly impact growth, while still being comfortable rolling up your sleeves, this could be the opportunity youve been waiting for.
What Youll Be Doing
As CFO, youll work directly with the founders and leadership team to shape the Groups financial strategy and infrastructure.
This is a hands-on finance leadership role, where both strategic thinking and operational execution are essential.
Your responsibilities will include:

Owning daily bookkeeping and financial recordkeeping to maintain accurate and reliable accounts

Managing accounts payable, receivable, and financial reconciliations

Building and maintaining financial models, forecasts, and budgeting frameworks

Driving unit economics analysis across clients and revenue streams

Leading cash flow management and financial planning in a high-growth environment

Establishing financial processes that scale as the company grows

Ensuring tax, regulatory, and compliance alignment with our Cyprus-based legal entity

Acting as a strategic partner to leadership on growth decisions and capital allocation

Youll play a central role in translating operational performance into financial insight and strategy.
What Were Looking For
This role is ideal for someone who is an established CFO or ready to step up into a true CFO position earlier in their career, while still being comfortable owning the financial operations of a growing group.
You likely bring:

5–7 years of experience in finance, accounting, FP&A, or corporate finance

Strong bookkeeping and accounting fundamentals

Excellent financial modelling and analytical skills

Exposure to tech, digital advertising, SaaS, or high-growth startups

Understanding of revenue models, margins, and unit economics

ACCA/ACA qualified (or equivalent)

Knowledge on VAT & VIES reporting in the EU

EU market experience, ideally with multiple companies

The ability to operate in a fast-moving, sometimes ambiguous environment

A mindset that combines ownership, precision, and strategic thinking

Experience with scaling finance functions is a strong advantage.

Advance experience working with Xero (software).

Why This Role Works Remotely
We operate as a remote-first team, working with talent across multiple countries while our legal entity and corporate structure are based in Cyprus.
This allows you to:

Work fully remotely while contributing to a global business

Operate within a stable EU framework

Collaborate with an international team in a fast-moving industry

We care far more about capability, ownership, and impact than where you sit.
Why This Role Is Different
Many finance roles support growth.
This one helps design it.
You wont just inherit systems—youll build them.
You wont just report numbers—youll own them end-to-end.
For the right candidate, this is a chance to grow into the role of CFO while helping build a company at the same time.
Interested?
If this sounds like the kind of opportunity where you could do your best work, apply now.
Were excited to meet finance leaders who are ready to step up, take ownership, and grow with us.
