Working in a fast-paced, owner-managed business, you'll need to be dynamic, flexible and commercially minded, with the opportunity to take ownership of analysis and projects that improve operational efficiency and support the continued growth of the group.
Responsibilities Include:
- Accuracy of accounting records and completion of key reconciliations across the group
- Preparation of management and statutory accounts
- Calculation of key accounting estimates and management of the external audit
- Financial planning and analysis to support group growth and investment decisions
- Business partnering with the CFO, wider finance function and business leaders across Car Finance 247 and group companies
- Identification and enhancement of controls and processes
- Producing clear, informed management information that supports decision-making at every level
