What you'll be doing We are looking for a sharp, commercially minded Finance professional to join our growing team. In this pivotal role, you will be the bridge between our Sales and Operations departments, ensuring that every new contract we win is both competitive and profitable. This is not a traditional accounting role; it is a strategic position for someone who enjoys the fast-paced nature of sales, possesses a strong analytical toolkit, and wants to see the direct financial impact of their work through the entire contract lifecycle. Key Responsibilities Financial Modelling : Support the building and refining of bespoke budgets for new business bids, ensuring labour costs, food margins, and overheads are accurately projected. Tender Analysis: Carefully review Invitation to Tender (ITT) documents to identify financial risks, mandatory requirements, and commercial opportunities. Post-Win Commercial Analysis: Reviewing how newly won contracts perform against the original budget. You will conduct 'Actual vs. Bid' reviews to spot variances, highlight risks, and help make our future pricing even sharper. Strategic Collaboration: Attend and contribute to approval calls with the Sales Team and Directors to provide financial validation for bid submissions. Performance Benchmarking: Develop and maintain commercial benchmarks (e.g., GP percentages, labour ratios, uptakes) to guide the Sales team in creating realistic proposals. Retention & Extensions: Partner with the Operations Team to re-model financials for existing clients looking to extend their contracts, ensuring terms remain viable. Stakeholder Liaison: Act as the primary point of contact for financial advice for the Sales team, providing clear explanations of complex data to non-finance colleagues. More about you Solid Finance Background: You must have a deep understanding of P&L mechanics, margin analysis, and cost allocation. Ideally, you will have equivalent, hands-on Commercial Finance/FP&A experience. Prior Bidding/Pricing Experience: We need someone who can hit the ground running. You should have experience in a similar commercial pricing or bid analysis role. Experience in contract catering is a massive bonus. Advanced Excel: You'll be building complex, multi-tab models that need to be both accurate and easy for others to navigate. High Attention to Detail: Missing a single clause in a tender or a formula error in a budget can be the difference between a winning bid and a loss-making contract. Strong People Skills: You need the diplomacy to tell a Sales Manager "No" when a deal doesn't make sense, while maintaining a collaborative partnership. Commercial Acumen: The ability to see beyond the spreadsheet and understand the operational reality of running a school kitchen. If you're a collaborative, solution-focused Finance professional who thrives in a busy and purposeful environment, we'd love to hear from you. Join us and be part of a team transforming lives through the power of food, making a genuine difference for students across the UK.

They will not only coordinate activity across finance, operations, HR and integration leads, but will also personally deliver key integration tasks. The role requires someone with the credibility, technical expertise, and influence to drive decisions, remove blockers, and ensure integrations are executed at pace and to a high standard. The role will focus initially on coordinating and delivering the integration of 13 existing businesses at various stages of transition, while developing a repeatable integration blueprint to support future acquisitions. What You'll Do Lead the end-to-end migration of entities onto D365 Business Central, including COA mapping, data cleansing, and opening balance reconciliations. Act as the primary decision-maker and escalation point between finance users, IT specialists, and external implementation partners. Manage the critical "cutover" period and provide post-go-live support to ensure system stability. Challenge legacy workflows to implement consistent Group processes for AP/AR, revenue recognition, and month-end close. Design and enforce robust financial controls, audit trails, and appropriate segregation of duties across all integrated units. Personally guide entity finance teams through their first month-end close cycle post-integration. Manage the set-up, closure, and mandate changes for bank accounts, ensuring full cash visibility across the Group. Lead finance workstreams for legal entity mergers, liquidations of dormant companies, and post-acquisition restructuring. Own and evolve the "Finance Integration Blueprint," capturing lessons learned to create a repeatable, scalable model for future M&A. Influence senior leadership to secure resources and provide solution-oriented updates on integration milestones. Perform "Go/No-Go" readiness assessments and intervene directly to unblock project dependencies. What We're Looking For ACA, ACCA, CIMA (or equivalent) with a strong foundation in technical accounting. Proven track record of delivering "hands-on" finance integrations within multi-entity or PE-backed environments. Direct experience migrating entities onto ERP systems - Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is highly advantageous. Advanced Excel skills and a natural aptitude for data analysis, mapping, and complex reconciliations. Experience redesigning finance operations, controls, and reporting frameworks during periods of transformation. You take ownership of outcomes rather than waiting for direction, remaining calm and pragmatic under the pressure of evolving priorities. Ability to manage sensitive relationships during change and translate complex financial requirements for non-finance stakeholders. You can balance a meticulous eye for detail with a clear understanding of the "big picture" integration goals. Comfortable navigating ambiguity and supporting teams through the cultural and operational shifts of a merger. Why Work for HSL?
