Full job descriptionFinance Manager - Manufacturing

Worksop

£65,000–£80,000 up to 10% bonus

If you enjoy getting onto the shop floor to find out why a product costs more to make than it should, this role gives you the scope to act on what you find.
BTG Recruitment is recruiting a Finance Manager for an established manufacturing group. You’ll lead finance for two UK business units, own the full month-end and work with plant managers, engineering and sales to understand where margins are being made or lost. You’ll manage an Assistant Accountant and have the support of a central finance team.

What you’ll do*Own month-end, including the P&L, balance sheet and cash flow, and present the results to group finance.
*Lead budgeting and forecasting for both sites.
*Work with production to review standard costs, stock and work in progress, and investigate labour and overhead variances.
*Explain what’s driving product margins and help operational teams decide where to act.
*Play a hands-on part in the rollout of Microsoft Dynamics 365.
What you’ll bring

You’ll be ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified, with manufacturing finance experience and ownership of the full month-end. You’ll be comfortable discussing how products are costed, why actual costs differ from standard and what that means for margins. Experience using an ERP system in manufacturing is important. Group reporting, staff supervision or an ERP implementation would be useful.

You could be an experienced Finance Manager, Financial Controller or Plant Controller. Equally, if you’re a Senior Management Accountant or Site Accountant who already owns month-end, this could be your first Finance Manager role.

Worksop is the preferred base, with Warrington considered for the right candidate. You’ll need to travel between sites. The package also includes 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays and an enhanced pension.
