Head of Finance Location: Hemel Hempstead Salary: Up to 80,000 + Benefits Position: Full-time, Permanent About the Business We are exclusively partnering with a highly successful, growing commercial business to recruit a hands-on Head of Finance. The company operates as a lean, profitable UK commercial hub backed by a major global parent group. Due to a strategic restructuring and a push for greater localized control, the business is completely insourcing its financial operations. This creates an exciting, clean-slate opportunity for a finance leader to shape an entire function from the ground up. The Role This is a highly autonomous, standalone position that requires a unique blend of technical accounting capability and a "roll-your-sleeves-up" attitude. You will not just be reviewing the numbers; you will be entirely responsible for producing them. The immediate priority will be leading a smooth transition project to bring all accounting functions completely in-house, designing new workflows, and establishing robust internal controls. Key Responsibilities: Project-manage the full insourcing and optimisation of the UK entity's accounting functions. Take complete ownership of the preparation and timely production of monthly management accounts and statutory financial statements. Manage all localized financial reporting, corporate tax alignment, and VAT compliance. Establish, implement, and tighten internal controls, commercial processes, and financial systems. Provide clear financial commentary, budgeting, and forecasting directly to executive leadership. Act as the primary UK point of contact for external auditors, banks, and the international group finance team. The Ideal Candidate: Qualification: ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified is highly preferred. Background: This role is a perfect match for a high-caliber Accountancy Practice 2nd mover looking for their next step in industry, or an experienced SME Finance Manager/Controller used to running a lean, highly hands-on department. Technical Capability: A proven track record of personally producing full sets of statutory and management accounts from scratch is non-negotiable. Mindset: An adaptable, organized "all-rounder" who is equally comfortable dealing with high-level strategy as they are handling day-to-day, granular accounting tasks. Previous experience working within an international group or subsidiary framework is advantageous but not essential.
