With a high-performing team of just ten, we generate annual revenues of just under £10 million across the UK, EU and Far East. We move fast, every team member has commercial impact, and you will work directly with the leadership team. You will be professionally trained, trusted, respected and appreciated. The Role We are looking for a CIMA-qualified Finance Manager to take ownership of our finance function across our UK and Dutch entities. This is a hands-on, commercially focused role.

Key Responsibilities Cash and working capital Lead the weekly cashflow meeting; prepare the rolling 13-week cashflow forecast and chair the supplier payment prioritisation discussion. Manage daily bank balances across UK and NL accounts; flag funding requirements early. Accounts payable and invoice challenge Critically review and challenge supplier invoices prior to MD authorisation - verify pricing against POs and contracts, identify overcharges, recover credits, and hold suppliers to agreed terms. Own the accounts payable process end-to-end, supervising the Assistant Accountant on invoice posting, payment runs and supplier statement reconciliations. Stock and asset management Own the integrity of stock as a balance-sheet asset across UK and NL: valuation, ageing, slow-moving and obsolete provisioning, write-offs.

Payroll and expenses Run monthly payroll and pension contributions; own the incentive pay calculations. Manage employee expense claims and company card reconciliations. Systems and controls Oversee daily bookkeeping and reconciliation across sales, purchase and expense ledgers in SAP Business One. Maintain and improve internal financial controls, particularly around invoice approval, payment release and stock movements. You may be required to undertake other duties from time to time as the Company may reasonably require. Key Requirements CIMA qualified. Hands-on experience with SAP Business One (or substantively similar SAP module). Proven track record of challenging supplier invoices, identifying overcharges and recovering credits within an accounts payable function.
