Finance Manager – High-Growth Business
This is an exciting opportunity to join a rapidly growing, ambitious business at an important stage of its development. The business has strong backing, ambitious growth plans, and a leadership team focused on building a high-performing organization for the long term.
Working closely with the senior leadership team, you’ll have a broad remit across finance and the wider business. This is a hands-on Finance Manager position where you’ll have genuine ownership, influence, and the opportunity to contribute to key commercial decisions as the business continues to grow.
The role offers considerably more exposure than a traditional Finance Manager position. Alongside owning core financial reporting, you’ll be involved in budgeting, forecasting, cash flow, commercial analysis, business performance, and strategic projects, giving you the opportunity to develop into a senior finance leader as the business scales.
It’s particularly well suited to an ambitious qualified or finalist ACA, ACCA, or CIMA accountant who wants to take ownership of a finance function, broaden their commercial experience, and work in an environment where they can make a visible impact.
