Job Description:
Shape the future. Modernise the function. Make the role your own.
If you want a finance role where every system already runs perfectly, this won’t be the one.
If you prefer maintaining processes that haven’t changed in years, it won’t be that either.
But if you’re a Finance Manager who enjoys understanding a business, spotting what could work better and leading the change, this will feel like the right kind of challenge.
A long-established contracting and manufacturing business is entering a major transformation under a new, forward-thinking Managing Director. With investment in digital and operational improvement, he wants someone who’ll take ownership of the finance function and help shape what comes next.
As he describes it:
"A role where you can take ownership, bring ideas and help steer the business."
Why This Role Stands Out
* Work closely with the MD, with a voice in board meetings
* Modernise and shape the finance function as the business scales
* Lead projects including system improvement and integration
* Drive automation, digitisation and forward-looking financial insight
* Flexible working supported, with an enhanced pension
What You’ll Do
Day-to-Day
* Manage invoicing, supplier payments and payroll
* Produce monthly management accounts with clear commercial analysis
* Maintain strong cash flow forecasting
* Provide practical financial insight to operational teams
Projects and Improvement
* Streamline and digitise finance processes
* Lead system enhancements and integrations
* Introduce automation to reduce manual effort
* Use analysis to support growth, investment and decision-making
Who You Need to Be
* Strong with Excel; Sage 200 experience ideal
* Confident in cash flow management
* Digitally minded with an interest in automation and AI
* Someone who improves systems rather than works around them
* Comfortable working independently and influencing at senior level
* Contracting or manufacturing experience helpful but not essential
* CIMA / ACCA / ACA preferred
Why You’ll Enjoy It
* You’ll play a central role in a business undergoing meaningful change
* Your ideas will matter and you’ll see the impact of your work
* You’ll have broad exposure, senior visibility and genuine variety
* You’ll modernise a finance function with the backing of a progressive MD
If you’re a Finance Manager who wants influence, substance and the chance to build something better, we’d love to speak with you.
