The role of today’s financial controller has evolved.

No longer just the trusted ‘bean counter’ today’s FC shares more attributes with the finance director than ever before with their roles overlapping and complementing one another. With their hands on experience of the market, today’s FC has become an invaluable asset to any company.

As CEO’s increasingly require finance to play a broader role in developing the business, there is more scope than ever before for the financial controller to positively influence the commercial strategy of their organisation. The modern FC is now expected to provide a more strategic view of the business whilst still delivering back office functionality.

The Annual ICAEW Financial Controllers’ Conference will help you to meet this challenge head on and will provide you with inspiring ideas to ensure you remain at the forefront of your organisation’s commercial strategy as well as useful advice on enhancing your career development.
