Financial Controller

• Own the monthly close and the timely publication of clean management accounts to FP&A on the agreed cadence. The deadline is cultural - met every month. The first phase is establishing the cadence and data-quality standards on a solid foundation; the cycle is then expected to compress over time as systems, controls and team capability mature
• Own the integrity and quality of the books - accruals, reconciliations, journal entries, intercompany - to a standard that supports confident downstream use by FP&A, Exec and Investors
• Define and enforce the data-quality boundary with Crypto Operations - on-chain transaction records arriving complete, reconciled and ready for entry to the books, with the upstream feedback loop owned where they don't. The integrity of the books cannot be policed downstream of bad data
• Own the statutory accounts and local filings for each of the group's sister entities across multiple jurisdictions; coordinate with local accountancy firms where useful, expanding the network where it improves throughput or quality
• Account confidently for complex financial instruments and digital-asset positions - options and FX hedges, DeFi positions, native token operations - and the IFRS / US GAAP treatments these require. Use Cryptio (and any external technical-accounting advice you commission) effectively
• Own the financial-controls framework - segregation of duties, control owners, periodic review - and bring discipline and structure to the function
• Lead, mentor and develop the small accounting team, with capacity and intent to expand. Hands-on enough to fix anything yourself, with a team that does the low-level work as it scales
• Drive the adoption of AI and modern automation across Finance operations - in partnership with internal technical resources - progressively removing low-level work from the team and freeing capacity for higher-value activity. Pace calibrated to what the function can absorb at the time
• Establish the function in a posture that is verifiably investor-diligence-ready by year-end, and maintain that posture as the business scales
• Partner with FP&A (who own management commentary, variance analysis and dashboards), with Treasury / Crypto Operations (who hand over the on-chain transaction record), and with external service providers (local accountants, payroll provider) to keep the function running smoothly
