Full job descriptionAre you the type of Finance Manager who enjoys building things rather than simply maintaining them?
We’re recruiting for a growing distribution business in Wolverhampton that is looking for a commercially minded Finance Manager to take ownership of the finance function and help shape the next phase of growth.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone who thrives in an SME environment, enjoys improving processes, and isn’t afraid to roll their sleeves up when needed. You’ll have the autonomy to make a real impact, working closely with the senior leadership team while developing and mentoring a small finance team.
Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you’ll be responsible for leading the finance function while driving improvements across reporting, controls and processes.
This is a friendly, down-to-earth yet impressive business. There are no big corporate politics, no endless layers of management and no hiding behind job titles.
The successful candidate will be someone who enjoys building relationships across the business and is equally comfortable discussing strategy with directors as they are helping the team solve day-to-day challenges.
What is required
*Previous experience as a Finance Manager or Senior Management Accountant
*Strong management accounting and financial control experience
*A track record of improving processes and implementing new ways of working
*Experience managing or developing staff
*A hands-on approach and willingness to get involved across the business
*Excellent communication skills and commercial awareness
*ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualification preferred
What you will receive
*Experience in a growing and ambitious business
*Opportunity to shape the finance function
*Direct exposure to senior leadership
*Genuine autonomy and influence
*Long-term progression opportunities
If you’re looking for a role where you can make a visible impact, improve processes, develop people and become a key part of a growing business, we’d love to hear from you
