Our client is looking for a commercially minded Finance Manager with desire for a broad role where you can make a genuine impact. We’ve partnered with an established organisation that is looking to appoint an ambitious finance professional to support business performance, improve processes and partner with stakeholders across the business. This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified or finalist-level accountant to join a collaborative finance team in a varied role offering exposure across financial reporting, business partnering, operational finance and continuous improvement.

Reporting into senior finance leadership, you’ll take ownership of the monthly management accounts while working closely with stakeholders to provide financial insight that supports business performance and strategic decision-making. This is a hands-on role that combines financial control with commercial analysis, making it ideal for someone who enjoys partnering with the wider business rather than remaining purely within finance.

*Oversee inventory, work in progress and cost reporting to ensure accurate financial information.
*Maintain the fixed asset register and support capital expenditure reporting.
*Assist with month-end and year-end processes, including audit preparation.
*Drive improvements across finance processes, reporting and internal controls.
*Support Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and Credit Control activities where required.
*Contribute to the development of finance systems and reporting capabilities.

Key requirements:
*ACCA or CIMA qualified, or at finalist level and actively studying.
*Experience preparing monthly management accounts.
*Strong management accounting, budgeting and forecasting experience.
*Excellent analytical skills with strong attention to detail.
*Advanced Excel skills and experience using accounting systems.
