This is a career-defining opportunity for a finance leader with proficient technical skills, a commercial mindset, and a keen interest in managing change.

- Analyse monthly numbers to ensure accuracy and to provide insight to support decision-making across the Group
- Support the external audit process by providing relevant accounting information and explanations where necessary and improve the financial internal control framework
- Oversee cost centre management and ensure integrity of the finance data structure, along with providing guidance on cost allocation methodologies
- Oversee consolidated group cash flow forecasting and liquidity analysis
- Lead a small team of accounts payable, ensuring a control environment and good payment practices
- Lead, mentor, and develop a small team of accounting professionals
Who you are:
- A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or equivalent), who has a solid technical grounding in IFRS and significant experience in group finance, accounting leadership, or financial reporting
- Well-versed in systems, with direct experience using Unit4 or a comparable ERP, and a keen interest in evolving finance system architecture
- Motivated by the opportunity to build and optimize — not just maintain
- Commercially fluent and methodical, with a clear communication style and a collaborative mindset
- A strategic thinker who thrives in complex environments but still enjoys getting involved practically
- Skilled in collaborating and influencing senior stakeholders and presenting clear insights to drive business performance
- Dedicated to continuous improvement, digital tools, and modern finance practices
What’s in it for you:
- A range of flexible working options to dedicate time to what matters to you

- 25 days holiday per year, increasing to 28 days after 2 years of employment
