    Hiring Better Finance Talent: How to Interview Financial Controllers and Master Competency-Based Interviews

    Podcast Introduction Welcome to the Accountancy Capital Podcast, where we help employers build stronger finance teams and make better hiring decisions. Finding exceptional finance professionals has never been more competitive. Technical skills remain essential, but today's employers also need candidates who can lead teams, influence stakeholders and support strategic business decisions. In today's episode, we'll cover two key topics that can dramatically improve your recruitment process: How to interview a Financial Controller effectively.How to use competency-based interview questions to identify the very best finance professionals.Whether you're recruiting your first Financial Controller, expanding your finance function or hiring for a senior accounting role, this episode will help you run a more structured and successful interview process. Segment One – How to Interview a Financial Controller The Financial Controller is one of the most important appointments any growing business will make. They sit at the heart of the finance function, overseeing financial reporting, managing controls, leading the finance team and providing accurate information that supports business decisions. Yet many employers still conduct interviews that focus almost entirely on technical accounting knowledge. While technical competence is vital, it's only one part of the picture. An outstanding Financial Controller should also demonstrate: Leadership and people management.Commercial awareness.Strong communication skills.Process improvement experience.The ability to influence senior stakeholders.Excellent judgement under pressure.A structured interview should explore real examples from the candidate's career. Ask them about: Leading a difficult month-end close.Improving financial controls.Managing external audits.Introducing new finance systems.Supporting business growth.Solving complex financial problems.The most revealing questions often begin with, "Tell me about a time when..." These encourage candidates to explain how they actually handled real situations rather than simply describing what they know. A strong interview process should also include discussion around leadership style, business partnering, risk management and the candidate's first 90-day priorities if appointed. For a complete employer guide, visit: https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/how-to-interview-a-financial-controller-employer-guide/ Segment Two – Why Competency-Based Interviews Deliver Better Hires One of the biggest mistakes employers make is relying on hypothetical questions. Questions such as "What would you do if..." often produce polished answers that tell you very little about how someone actually performs. Competency-based interviewing takes a different approach. Instead of asking candidates what they might do, you ask them what they have already done. For example: Tell me about a time you improved a finance process.Describe a situation where you identified a significant financial risk.Explain how you handled conflicting priorities during month-end.Give an example of influencing senior management with financial information.Tell me about a difficult conversation with a member of your finance team.These questions reveal practical experience, decision-making ability and leadership capability. Many employers encourage candidates to answer using the STAR framework: SituationTaskActionResultThis structure helps candidates provide clear, evidence-based examples while giving interviewers a consistent way to compare different applicants. Competency interviews are particularly valuable when recruiting qualified accountants because they assess behaviours alongside technical knowledge. You gain a much clearer picture of how someone performs under pressure, manages relationships and contributes to business success. To explore a wide range of competency-based finance interview questions, visit: https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/competency-based-finance-interview-questions/ Bringing the Two Together The best recruitment processes combine both approaches. Start by assessing technical capability. Then explore how candidates have applied those skills in real business situations. This combination allows employers to evaluate: Technical expertise.Leadership ability.Commercial judgement.Problem-solving skills.Communication.Cultural fit.By using structured interviews and competency-based questioning, businesses make more objective hiring decisions and significantly reduce the risk of expensive recruitment mistakes. Consistency also improves the candidate experience and provides stronger evidence for selecting the right individual. Final Thoughts Recruiting senior finance professionals is about much more than reviewing qualifications and CVs. The best candidates combine technical excellence with leadership, commercial thinking and the ability to drive continuous improvement across the finance function. Accountancy Capital has produced practical employer resources to help businesses recruit with greater confidence. Today's featured guides are: How to Interview a Financial Controller – Employer Guide https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/how-to-interview-a-financial-controller-employer-guide/ Competency-Based Finance Interview Questions https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/competency-based-finance-interview-questions/ These guides provide practical interview frameworks, example questions and expert advice to help employers identify finance professionals who will make a lasting impact on their organisation.

    The AI-Powered Finance Function: Transforming Month-End Close, Reconciliations and AP & AR

    Podcast Introduction Welcome to the Accountancy Capital Podcast, where we explore the latest trends shaping the finance profession, accounting leadership and the future of finance teams. Artificial Intelligence is rapidly changing how finance departments operate. From reducing manual data entry to accelerating month-end close, AI is helping finance professionals spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time delivering strategic insight. Used well, AI can automate routine work while leaving accountants to focus on analysis, judgement and decision-making. In today's episode, we'll look at three areas where AI is making the biggest impact: Accelerating the month-end close.Improving reconciliations.Transforming Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable.Whether you're a Finance Director, CFO, Financial Controller or finance professional looking to modernise your department, this episode will provide practical insights into how AI is reshaping finance. Segment One – AI for Month-End Close For many finance teams, month-end remains one of the busiest and most stressful periods of the month. Teams work to reconcile accounts, post journals, prepare management accounts and explain variances—all against tight reporting deadlines. AI is changing that. Rather than replacing accountants, AI is helping automate many of the repetitive administrative tasks that consume valuable time. Examples include: Drafting variance commentary.Reviewing supporting documentation.Identifying unusual transactions.Preparing management reporting.Highlighting exceptions for further review.Assisting with close checklists.Instead of spending days assembling information, finance professionals can focus on validating results, investigating anomalies and providing commercial insight. Many organisations are also moving towards a more continuous approach to financial close, where transactions are reviewed throughout the month rather than leaving everything until the final few days. This can shorten close cycles and improve reporting quality. To learn more, visit: https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/ai-for-month-end-close/ Segment Two – AI for Reconciliations Reconciliations are essential for maintaining accurate financial records, but they are often one of the most labour-intensive activities within finance. Whether it's bank reconciliations, intercompany balances or balance sheet reconciliations, traditional processes can involve significant manual effort. AI can dramatically reduce this workload. Modern AI tools are capable of: Matching transactions automatically.Identifying unusual exceptions.Explaining discrepancies.Prioritising items requiring human review.Learning from previous matching patterns.Producing clearer audit trails.Importantly, AI doesn't eliminate financial controls. Human review remains critical, particularly for complex transactions and unusual items. Instead, AI helps finance teams focus on exceptions rather than spending hours matching routine transactions line by line. Industry experience increasingly points to AI being most effective when combined with strong governance and human oversight rather than operating independently. Read the full guide here: https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/ai-for-reconciliations/ Segment Three – AI for Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable are among the most process-driven functions within finance, making them ideal candidates for AI adoption. Within Accounts Payable, AI can help: Extract invoice information.Detect duplicate invoices.Route approvals automatically.Suggest coding.Identify unusual supplier activity.Within Accounts Receivable, AI can support: Cash allocation.Payment matching.Customer communications.Credit control prioritisation.Collection forecasting.The result is a finance function that operates more efficiently while improving cash flow visibility and reducing administrative effort. Perhaps most importantly, finance professionals gain more time to work directly with operational teams, support strategic planning and contribute to business performance rather than simply processing transactions. Explore the guide at: https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/ai-for-ap-and-ar/ Bringing It All Together Although these three areas focus on different finance processes, they share a common objective. Remove repetitive manual work. Improve accuracy. Speed up reporting. Allow finance professionals to concentrate on higher-value activities. The organisations seeing the greatest benefits from AI aren't replacing accountants—they're equipping them with better tools. Professional judgement, governance and commercial insight remain essential. AI simply enables finance teams to deliver those skills more efficiently. Final Thoughts Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future concept for finance departments. It's becoming an increasingly practical tool for improving efficiency across month-end close, reconciliations and Accounts Payable and Receivable. Accountancy Capital has developed a series of practical resources to help finance leaders understand where AI can deliver genuine value while maintaining strong financial controls. Today's featured guides are: AI for Month-End Close https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/ai-for-month-end-close/ AI for Reconciliations https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/ai-for-reconciliations/ AI for AP and AR https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/ai-for-ap-and-ar/ Each guide explores practical applications, implementation considerations and the opportunities AI presents for building faster, smarter and more effective finance functions.

    Hiring the Right Financial Controller for Your Business

    Welcome to the Accountancy Capital Podcast, where we help businesses build stronger finance teams and help finance professionals advance their careers. In today’s episode, we’re focusing on one of the most critical hires any growing business can make — the Financial Controller. At Accountancy Capital, we specialise in Financial Controller recruitment across the UK, supporting businesses at every stage, from fast-growing scale-ups to established organisations undergoing transformation. The Financial Controller plays a central role in any finance function. They are responsible for ensuring accurate reporting, maintaining strong financial controls, and providing the insight leadership teams need to make informed decisions. But beyond compliance and reporting, the modern Financial Controller is a strategic partner to the business. They improve processes, strengthen cashflow visibility, support budgeting and forecasting, and help prepare businesses for investment, expansion, or exit. In many cases, they also act as the bridge between the finance team and the senior leadership team. This is where Accountancy Capital can help. https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/financial-controller-for-businesses-scaling-internationally/ https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/financial-controller-after-private-equity-investment/ https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/first-financial-controller-for-a-growing-business/ https://www.accountancycapital.co.uk/financial-controller-recruitment-after-acquisition/ Our Financial Controller recruitment services are designed to connect businesses with high-quality, experienced finance professionals who can make an immediate impact. We work closely with each client to understand their business model, growth plans, and specific requirements. This ensures we identify candidates who are not only technically capable but also aligned with the company’s culture and objectives. We support both permanent and interim Financial Controller recruitment. Interim Financial Controllers are particularly valuable during periods of change, such as system implementations, rapid growth, acquisitions, or when immediate financial leadership is required. Our network includes Financial Controllers with experience across a wide range of sectors, including technology, professional services, manufacturing, and investor-backed businesses. Many of our candidates have experience supporting scaling businesses, improving reporting processes, and preparing companies for investment or acquisition. A key advantage of working with Accountancy Capital is our specialist focus. We understand the Financial Controller role in depth, and we know what separates an average candidate from an exceptional one. Our recruitment process is designed to identify individuals who bring both technical expertise and commercial value. For businesses, hiring the right Financial Controller can transform financial visibility, strengthen controls, and support long-term growth. It provides leadership teams with reliable financial insight and allows them to focus on strategic priorities with confidence. If your business is looking to hire a Financial Controller, or if you are a finance professional exploring your next career move, visit www.accountancycapital.co.uk to learn more about our recruitment services.

    City Seats — Inside London NED Recruitment

    n London—and more broadly across the UK—many executive search and recruitment firms specialise in placing Non-Executive Directors (NEDs) onto boards. These roles bring independent perspective, governance oversight, and strategic depth to organisations. Firms like Edward Drummond & Co emphasise a tailored approach—starting with a board’s strategy and skills gaps to deliver boardroom fits that go beyond mere CVs   Similarly, Eton Bridge Partners combines deep networks and in-house research to match clients with objective advisory talent  Others, like Nigel Wright Group, operate at scale—placing NEDs across sectors from start-ups to FTSE-listed companies, and even into health, education, and government bodies Macildowie and Norrie Johnston Recruitment stand out with their NED networks, rigorous searches, and fast delivery of shortlists—sometimes within just a few weeks  COREcruitment also has an international edge, promising high-calibre NED and Chair placements globally, with a strong commitment to diversity and excellence. Our Sister Company is Ned Capital - who are rapidly establishing themselves as leaders. Host: Why is London so significant in the NED landscape? Strategic density: It’s a hub for businesses of all scales—from venture-backed scale-ups to global PLCs—each needing NEDs with varied expertise.Access to diverse talent: London’s boardrooms benefit from candidates with fintech know-how, ESG insight, PE/VC experience, and public sector networks.Regulatory demands and innovation: With evolving governance expectations, the city’s pool of experienced NEDs helps boards stay resilient and forward-thinking. Across many firms, recruitment starts with a clear understanding of a board’s long-term strategy and cultural fit Host: What do London NED recruiters look for? Independence and judgment: The ability to challenge without bias and guide discussions effectively Sector-specific insight: Whether tech, finance, education, health, or regulated industries—experience in context matters Governance and accountability: NEDs must help ensure oversight, risk control, and compliance Board dynamics and communication: Strong interpersonal skills and ethical judgement contribute to effective board functioning Host: However, recruitment isn’t without its challenges. The broader London recruitment sector has faced headwinds: firms like Hays, PageGroup, Robert Walters, and others reported steep declines in revenues—some down 24% since 2022—as companies freeze hiring or lean toward flexible, temporary arrangements Hays even issued a profit warning amid these market headwinds  Yet, the demand for high-quality board personnel—especially NEDs—persists. For organisations navigating complexity and regulation, NEDs remain a strategic necessity. Host: In London’s ever-evolving business space, NED recruitment is more than hiring—it’s sculpting boardroom strength. Whether you're a rapidly scaling tech firm or an established enterprise seeking diverse or revitalised leadership, drawing on the right NED expertise can make all the difference. Thanks for tuning into City Seats. Next time, we’ll step inside the world of virtual boardrooms and global NED collaboration. Until then, I’m Adrian Lawrence—helping you discover the leadership shaping tomorrow’s boardrooms.

    How the Right NED Can Transform Your Business

    Hello and welcome to The Boardroom Edge—the podcast where we explore how businesses grow smarter through stronger leadership. I’m your host, Adrian, and today, we’re diving into one of the most underrated strategic moves a business can make: bringing on a Non-Executive Director, or NED. And if you’re wondering where to find the right NED for your business, I’ve got the answer for you—Accountancy Capital. You can explore their NED recruitment services right now at 👉 accountancycapital.co.uk/non-executive-director-ned-recruitment/—but stick with me for the next few minutes and I’ll explain why this might be the smartest investment you make all year. [Brief Transition Sound] So, let’s break it down. A Non-Executive Director isn’t just another board member—they’re your outside expert, sounding board, and strategic challenger. They don’t run the day-to-day operations, but they do help shape the direction of your business. They sit at the table and ask the questions that others won’t—or can’t. Things like: “Is this the right time for expansion?”“Do we have the right financial controls in place?”“What’s your succession plan?”And that kind of thinking is critical—especially if you're growing, looking for funding, or navigating change. [The Accountancy Capital Advantage] Now, here’s where Accountancy Capital really shines. They specialise in NED recruitment for finance-focused and fast-growth businesses, drawing from a deep network of senior professionals with backgrounds in finance, strategy, governance, and more. Whether you're a scale-up looking for board guidance, a family business bringing in outside voices for the first time, or a private company preparing for an exit—Accountancy Capital can match you with a NED who brings real value to your boardroom. And because they’re finance-led, they get what financially savvy leadership looks like. [Use Case Segment] Let’s say you're running a fast-growing business, revenues are up, and investors are circling. But your board is thin—mostly founders or insiders. This is exactly where a well-matched NED can bring experience from M&A deals, investor negotiations, or IPOs to help steer you through high-stakes decisions. Or maybe your business is steady, but you're looking to improve governance, risk management, or financial oversight. Bringing in a NED with an accountancy or CFO background—like the kind Accountancy Capital often sources—can elevate how your board operates. [Testimonial Moment] Here’s a quick quote from one of their clients: “Our NED from Accountancy Capital brought fresh strategic clarity and financial discipline to our leadership team. We’ve made more progress in six months than we did in the previous two years.”That’s what happens when you match the right expertise to the right business challenge. [Call to Action] So, if you're thinking about bringing in a NED—or even if you’re not quite sure what your board needs yet—talk to the experts at Accountancy Capital. Visit 👉 www.accountancycapital.co.uk/non-executive-director-ned-recruitment/ to learn more. Because good boards don’t just oversee. They accelerate. [Outro Music – Steady and Positive] Thanks for joining me on The Boardroom Edge. If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe and share it with a founder or CFO you know. And remember—leadership isn’t just about who’s in the room. It’s about who’s helping you see what’s ahead. Until next time, stay sharp and think long-term.
