We’re working with an established and growing SME to recruit a newly created Finance Manager role.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to the business and wants genuine ownership of a finance function. You’ll lead the day-to‑time finance operation, manage a small team and work closely with senior leadership to improve reporting, controls and commercial insight.
The role will suit someone who is happy being hands‑on when needed but can equally step back from the numbers, challenge the business and help drive better decisions.
The role
- Full ownership of the month‑end process and management accounts
- Produce meaningful MI, commentary and analysis for senior stakeholders
- Manage cash flow, working capital and oversight of credit control
- Lead and develop a small transactional finance team
- Improve financial controls, processes and reporting
- Support budgeting, forecasting and longer‑term planning
- Business partner across the wider organisation
- Work closely with senior leadership to provide commercial insight
- Help continue the development and professionalisation of the finance function
About you
We’re looking for someone who:
- Is ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified, or qualified by experience with a strong track record
- Has solid management accounting and month‑end experience
- Is comfortable managing and developing a small team
- Can balance being hands‑on with a more commercial, business partnering approach
- Has experience improving processes, controls and reporting
- Enjoys working in an SME environment where you can genuinely make an impact
- Is confident communicating with both finance and non‑finance stakeholders
- Experience with Xero would be useful but isn’t essential.
Package
- Alcester
- 3-4 days per week on site
- Newly created role with plenty of scope to shape and develop the finance function
This is a really interesting opportunity for someone looking for a broad Finance Manager role where they can take ownership, add value and become a key part of the business as it continues to grow.
