What You’ll Be Doing:
This isn’t your average number-crunching role - reporting to the Financial Controller you’ll be at the heart of PACK’D’s finance team, keeping things running smoothly while helping us grow smarter and faster.
Transactional Finance
You’ll own the day-to-day: invoices, bank reconciliations, and those all-important accruals and prepayments. You’ll take the lead on Accounts Payable, making sure our suppliers get paid on time and everything adds up perfectly, while also driving Accounts Receivable to keep cash flowing. You’ll oversee our Invoice Factoring Facility, keep on top of staff expenses and bank reconciliations, and coordinate payroll with our outsourced providers so everyone gets paid correctly and on time.
Month-End & Reporting
When month-end rolls around, you’ll be in the thick of it, supporting the preparation of management accounts, journals, and reconciliations. You’ll keep the fixed asset register in check, handle VAT returns, and help us stay on top of all things compliance. Plus, you’ll lend your analytical eye to cashflow forecasting and reporting, giving the business visibility on what’s coming next.
Continuous Improvement
You’ll be more than just part of the process, you’ll help shape it. Partnering with the finance team, you’ll find ways to make systems slicker, controls stronger, and reports sharper. You’ll dive into ad-hoc projects that really matter, from analysing product profitability to exploring margin performance. Every day will bring something new, and you’ll play a key role in making PACK’D’s finance function best in class.

• Proven experience in bookkeeping and month-end close - ideally within product-led, FMCG, or scale-up environments.
• Hands-on and detail-driven, with unwavering accuracy and ownership of the numbers.

• Experienced in leading accounting platforms such as Xero, NetSuite, or similar systems.
• Curious, adaptable, and growth-minded, thriving in fast-paced, entrepreneurial settings.

• £40,000 - £45,000 salary, plus study support (where relevant), based on experience.

• Broad exposure across all areas of finance, from hands-on bookkeeping to strategic projects.
• Collaborative, fast-paced, and supportive culture where your ideas make an impact.

• 28 days’ holiday, plus bank holidays.
