This is not a typical accountancy role senior accounting and finance professionals from both Practice and Industry considered. If you enjoy the conversation after the numbers, the part where you help a business owner decide what to actually do next, this is where your role becomes the job, not a side benefit of it. You ll work closely with a portfolio of owner-managed businesses acting effectively as their outsourced Finance Director, becoming their go-to adviser. No compliance, no production work, just meaningful and commercial conversations that influence real business decisions. It s a role built for someone who enjoys thinking beyond the numbers. Someone who wants variety, influence and the chance to see the direct impact of their advice across multiple growing businesses. Who this role may suit: This role typically appeals to two types of people: From Practice - You re technically strong but most energised by client interaction. You re frustrated that a vast amount of your time is spent on compliance and want to move into a role where commercial advisory is the core focus. 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.
