Finance Manager
Central London
£75,000–£80,000 + bonus and benefits
We Do Group are delighted to be partnering with a growing international services business to recruit a Finance Manager.
This is a broad, hands-on role combining full accounting ownership of two operational entities with support for group level reporting, budgeting, insights, and consolidation.
Beyond that there is also real scope to develop your FP&A and commercial partnering skills. There is no separate FP&A team so this role will have to add commercial value beyond reporting the numbers.
You’ll have plenty of exposure to senior operational leaders, the Group Financial Controller, and Group CFO. Definitely not one for someone who wants to hide behind a spreadsheet all day.
Wish List
- Qualified accountant: ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CA or CPA
- At least three years’ post-qualified experience within industry
- Experience managing the finance requirements of an operational entity from end to end
- Strong management accounting and reporting experience
- Confident partnering with senior operational stakeholders
- Services or financial services experience would be useful, but isn’t essential

Your Profile
You’ll be a qualified accountant who enjoys taking genuine ownership rather than simply producing reports and passing them on.
The business has a flat structure, so you’ll need to be comfortable working directly with senior leaders, explaining the numbers clearly, and occasionally dealing with an urgent request that wasn’t on yesterday’s to-do list.
You’ll be organized, commercially minded, and happy balancing detailed accounting with broader business partnering.
This role would suit a qualified management or financial accountant looking to step into a broader role or an established Manager who enjoys a broad accounting role. Practice trained profiles would be suitable; however, c.3 years of experience in an industry role will be required.
Salary & Benefits
£75,000–£80,000 plus 10-20% Bonus and company pension scheme. Exceptional modern central London office with all modern amenities. This role is office-based, five days per week on site.
