Finance Manager - FMCG / Food Manufacturing Genuine Progression Towards Senior Leadership Location: Nottingham Salary: £50,000 - £60,000 Are you an ambitious finance professional from an FMCG or food manufacturing background looking for a role that can genuinely move your career forward? This is an excellent opportunity to join a fast-growing, entrepreneurial FMCG manufacturing business at an exciting stage of its development. The business has already built a strong presence across major retail channels and is now investing in the systems, controls, reporting and commercial insight needed to support its next phase of growth. This is not a "steady-state" Finance Manager role. It is a chance to step into a broader, more influential position where you will work closely with an experienced interim FD, gain exposure to senior decision-making, and develop towards a future senior leadership role. The Opportunity The business is scaling quickly and needs a commercially minded Finance Manager who can help turn financial information into better operational and strategic decisions. You will have the opportunity to get close to the numbers behind the business, including product margins, cost of goods, labour, materials, stock, cashflow and working capital. You will also work closely with operations, sales and senior management to identify where improvements can be made. For someone who wants more ownership, more commercial exposure and a clear progression path, this is a highly attractive next step. What You'll Be Doing You will play a key role in strengthening the finance function and supporting the business through its next stage of growth. Your responsibilities will include: Preparing monthly management accounts and clear financial reporting Supporting cashflow forecasting and working capital management Reviewing product costs, margins and stock performance Analysing labour, material and production variances Helping improve cost visibility across the business Supporting budgeting, forecasting and commercial planning Working closely with operations, sales and senior stakeholders Improving financial controls, reporting processes and procedures Providing insight to support pricing, margin and operational decisions Helping shape the finance function as the business continues to scale What We're Looking For We are looking for someone who understands the pace, complexity and commercial demands of an FMCG or food manufacturing environment. You may currently be working as a Finance Manager, Senior Management Accountant, Cost Accountant, Finance Business Partner, Commercial Finance Analyst or junior Financial Controller. Most importantly, you will be someone who wants to step beyond reporting and play a more active role in improving business performance. You will need: Experience in FMCG, food manufacturing, drink manufacturing or a closely related consumer goods environment Strong understanding of stock, costings, margins and variance analysis Experience preparing management accounts Good commercial awareness and curiosity beyond the numbers Confidence working with operations and non-finance stakeholders Strong Excel and reporting skills A hands-on approach suited to a growing SME The ambition to develop into a more senior finance leadership role Experience with food production, grocery, wholesale, retail supply, D2C, stock systems or ERP improvements would be advantageous. Why This Role Stands Out This is a rare opportunity to join a scaling FMCG business where finance is central to the next phase of growth. You will benefit from: Direct mentoring from an experienced interim FD Exposure to the MD and senior leadership team A clear route towards greater responsibility The chance to influence how finance supports the business A broad role covering financial control, commercial finance and operational finance The opportunity to help improve margins, cashflow, reporting and decision-making A business that is growing, ambitious and investing in its future This role would suit someone who is ambitious, commercially minded and ready to move into a position with greater influence. Package £50,000 - £60,000 salary 25 days holiday 5% matched pension Bonus scheme 4 days office-based, 1 day from home Genuine progression towards senior leadership If you are an FMCG or food manufacturing finance professional who wants more than just another month-end role, this could be the opportunity to take the next meaningful step in your career.
