Job Description

Finance Manager

Salary: £85,000 + bonus + benefits

Location: Hybrid London

This is a rare opportunity to step into a genuinely influential Finance Manager role within a fast-growing, well-funded business at a pivotal stage of its journey.

You will sit at the heart of the organisation, owning core financial control while also acting as a trusted commercial partner to senior leadership. This is not a back-office role. Your work will directly shape decision-making, performance, and growth.

The Opportunity

As Finance Manager, you will take full ownership of day-to-day finance operations while elevating the quality of insight, reporting, and financial rigour across the business. You will have real autonomy, visibility, and the chance to build best-in-class finance processes rather than inherit rigid legacy systems.

This role suits someone who enjoys combining technical excellence with commercial impact and who wants their work to matter.

Key Responsibilities
  • Full ownership of month-end close, management accounts, and financial reporting
  • Budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow management with clear, actionable insights
  • Business partnering with senior stakeholders to support strategic and operational decisions
  • Oversight of statutory accounts, audits, and external advisors
  • Continuous improvement of financial controls, processes, and systems
  • Supporting growth initiatives including pricing, investment analysis, and scenario modelling
  • Mentoring junior finance team members where appropriate
What We're Looking For
  • ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified
  • Strong experience in a Finance Manager or Senior Management Accountant role
  • Excellent technical grounding combined with commercial curiosity
  • Confident communicator who can influence non-finance stakeholders
  • Comfortable in a fast-moving, evolving environment
  • Proactive, ownership-driven mindset
Why This Role Stands Out
  • £85,000 salary reflecting the seniority and impact of the role
  • High visibility with leadership and genuine influence over business direction
  • A chance to build, shape, and improve rather than maintain
  • Hybrid working with flexibility and trust
  • Clear scope to progress as the business grows

If you are looking for a Finance Manager role where you can step up, be heard, and make a real difference, this is one worth exploring.

Interested candidates are encouraged to apply in confidence.
