From Industry - You re a commercially minded Finance Manager / Senior Finance professional used to influencing decisions. You want more variety, more impact and exposure to multiple businesses rather than just one. Role overview: This is a purely client-facing role. A dedicated team handles all compliance and technical production, so your focus stays on delivering value where it counts. Manage, own and develop a portfolio of 30+ SME clients as their trusted adviser Lead regular strategic and performance-focused client meetings Translate financial performance and data into clear, actionable insight Identify opportunities to improve profitability, cash flow and business value Support clients on key decisions (growth, pricing, acquisitions, exit planning) Build strong, lasting relationships with business owners Mentor junior team members into future advisers.
