Finance Manager

You’ll have the opportunity to build the financial foundations of a growing manufacturing operation, rather than inherit someone else’s processes. As Finance Manager, you’ll take ownership of the numbers from construction and commissioning through to full production, with direct exposure to the CEO, board and investors. 

This is a senior, hands-on appointment where you’ll shape systems, controls and reporting while influencing commercial decisions across a capital-intensive operation. As the group grows, there is also a defined development path towards a CFO position.

Salary of £65,000 - £75,000 per annum
Direct access to the CEO, Plant Director and board
Genuine ownership of building the company's in-house financial function
Defined development path towards a future CFO position
Exposure to major capital projects, commissioning and operational manufacturing
Opportunity to influence commercial decisions, investment reporting and future growth
Your responsibilities as Finance Manager

Produce monthly management accounts, variance analysis, cash forecasts and board reporting, giving senior stakeholders clear visibility of performance
Control capital expenditure across the plant build, including contractor payments, variations, cost-to-complete reporting and contingency
Build the internal function by implementing accounting systems, month-end processes, payroll, expenses, credit control and appropriate controls
Own and develop the integrated financial model, providing scenario analysis to support commercial and strategic decisions
Support fundraising, investor reporting, lender requirements, covenant compliance and due diligence activity
Oversee VAT, statutory accounts, audit, tax, banking, insurance and relevant regulatory requirements
What we’re looking for in a Finance Manager

Fully qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA accountant
Background within manufacturing, industrial or infrastructure environments, ideally with exposure to capital projects or plant commissioning
Evidence of building or substantially improving an internal financial function, including accounting systems and controls
Strong Excel and financial modelling capability, including ownership of integrated models suitable for board-level reporting
Experience covering management accounts, cash forecasting, audit, statutory requirements and senior stakeholder reporting
