With an established reputation in the manufacture and supply of accredited windows, doors, and specialist glazing systems, the business operates across both the social housing refurbishment sector and the new build construction industry. The company currently turns over £16 million and is forecasting 25% growth next year, creating a significant opportunity for a commercially focused FD to help shape the next phase of expansion.
This is far more than a traditional finance role. We are looking for a strategic, hands-on finance leader who can operate as a true business partner to the Managing Director and leadership team — helping drive performance, scalability, profitability, and long-term value creation.
The Opportunity
This role offers the chance for the Finance Director to play a key part in the future direction of a dynamic and profitable business with ambitious growth plans, strong market positioning, and a reputation for quality and innovation.
You will lead the finance function while contributing at board level across commercial strategy, operational performance, investment planning, and business development initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
* The Finance Director will lead and develop the finance function across all areas of the business
* Deliver robust financial reporting, forecasting, budgeting, and cashflow management
* Provide strategic financial insight to support business growth and operational efficiency
* Partner with the senior management team to drive commercial decision-making
* Support growth initiatives, investment planning, and potential acquisitions
* Strengthen systems, controls, and financial processes to support scale
* Manage banking relationships, auditors, and external advisors
* Produce meaningful KPI reporting and management information
* Ensure full statutory and regulatory compliance
About You
We are seeking an experienced Finance Director or an ambitious senior finance professional ready to step into a broader strategic leadership role.
You will ideally bring:
* Qualified accountant status (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent)
* Proven experience within manufacturing, construction, building products, or related sectors
* Strong commercial acumen and strategic thinking capability
* Experience operating within owner-managed or entrepreneurial businesses
* A hands-on approach combined with board-level credibility
* Strong leadership and communication skills
* The ability to thrive in a fast-moving growth environment
Experience within the glazing, fenestration, construction products, or social housing sectors would be an advantage, but not essential.
Why Join?
* Significant influence within a growing and profitable business
* Opportunity to shape strategy and future direction
* Executive-level visibility and autonomy
* Dynamic entrepreneurial environment
* Long-term career opportunity with substantial growth potential
This is an outstanding opportunity for a commercially minded Finance Director to become a central figure in an ambitious and respected business operating in sectors with strong long-term demand
