About the Opportunity
We're partnering with an established and ambitious consumer brand operating across the personal care market.

It's a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to take the next step in their career within an entrepreneurial, product-led business.
The Role
You'll take ownership of key financial processes, ensuring accurate reporting while providing meaningful insight into business performance.
Key responsibilities include:
- Management Accounts: Prepare monthly management accounts, including journals, accruals, prepayments, balance sheet reconciliations and month-end reporting.
- P&L Ownership: Analyse performance across key areas of the business, investigating variances and providing clear, actionable commentary.
- Commercial Finance: Work closely with stakeholders to understand revenue, costs, profitability and opportunities to improve margins.
- D2C & Retail: Support financial reporting and profitability analysis across e-commerce, retail and wholesale channels.
- Stock & Inventory: Manage inventory accounting, stock valuations, reconciliations and cost of goods sold.
- Cash Flow & Forecasting: Support budgeting, forecasting, cash flow management and financial planning.
- Financial Operations: Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable and financial controls, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
- Process Improvement: Identify opportunities to improve reporting, financial systems and processes as the business continues to scale.
