This is an exciting opportunity for a hands‑on, qualified accountant to take ownership of the company’s finance function, bringing key accounting activities in‑house and developing efficient financial processes and controls.

Key Responsibilities of the Finance Manager:

• Take ownership of the day-to-day finance and accounting function.

• Liaise with external accountants regarding year-end accounts and statutory reporting.
• Develop and improve financial processes, controls and reporting systems.
• Provide meaningful financial information and analysis to support senior management decisions.

The Successful Finance Manager Will Have:

• ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification.
• A strong background in accountancy practice, ideally within a small or independent firm.
• Sound knowledge of bookkeeping, accounts preparation and statutory accounting.
• Experience managing a broad range of accounting responsibilities.
• A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to work independently.
• Strong communication skills and confidence working with senior stakeholders.
• The ability to implement improvements and develop effective financial processes.

Why Apply?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing, entrepreneurial business where your contribution will make a genuine difference.

Offering a three-day working week, the role provides the opportunity to take full ownership of the finance function, establish improved processes and work directly with senior decision-makers.
