Business Operations & Finance Manager
Warrington
Salary up to £55,000 depending on experience
More than finance. More than operations. A chance to help shape how a growing business runs.
Some roles keep a business ticking over - this one helps shape where it's going next.
We're looking for a Business Operations & Finance Manager who enjoys being at the heart of a growing business. You'll lead the finance function, drive operational improvements, oversee people processes, and work closely with the Managing Director as a trusted member of the Senior Management Team. Joining an ambitious SME, you'll have the opportunity to influence how the business operates, improve processes, introduce new ideas, and play a key role in its continued growth. It's a varied, hands-on role where no two weeks are the same, giving you the chance to make a genuine impact every day.
What you'll be doing
Finance
- Lead the day-to-day finance function, including sales and purchase ledger, cash flow, credit control, and reconciliations.
- Produce accurate management accounts, budgets, forecasts, and financial reporting to support commercial decision-making.
- Work closely with the Managing Director to identify opportunities, risks, and performance trends.
- Manage client credit applications and relationships with credit insurers.
- Continuously improve financial processes and reporting using Xero and other business systems.
