Finance Manager

I'm currently partnering with a well-established financial services business that is looking to recruit a Finance Manager to join its growing finance team. This is an excellent opportunity to join a successful and ambitious organisation where you'll play a key role in driving financial performance, enhancing reporting, and supporting strategic decision-making across the business.

Reporting into senior finance leadership, you'll take ownership of the day-to-day financial management function, delivering accurate financial reporting, commercial insight, and partnering with key stakeholders to support business growth. This is a broad and varied role offering genuine influence, exposure to senior leadership, and the opportunity to contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across the finance function.

Key responsibilities:

• Preparing accurate and timely monthly management accounts, supported by meaningful analysis and commentary
• Leading the budgeting, forecasting, and annual financial planning processes
• Producing detailed financial and commercial analysis, identifying trends, risks, and opportunities, and presenting findings to senior stakeholders
• Business partnering with department heads and senior management to support commercial decision-making, improve financial performance, and drive profitability
• Managing cash flow forecasting, balance sheet reconciliations, and working capital
• Supporting financial planning, investment appraisals, and business case preparation for strategic initiatives
• Ensuring robust financial controls are maintained while supporting regulatory and compliance requirements
• Assisting with the preparation of statutory accounts and liaising with external auditors where required
• Supporting, developing, and mentoring members of the finance team
• Identifying and implementing improvements to finance processes, reporting, and systems to enhance efficiency and accuracy

About you:

• ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified
• Previous experience as a Finance Manager, Senior Management Accountant, or an experienced Management Accountant looking to step into a Finance Manager position
• Background within financial services, banking, insurance, wealth management, or another regulated environment would be advantageous
• Strong commercial awareness with the ability to influence and build relationships with stakeholders across the business
• Excellent analytical, communication, and organisational skills, with a proactive approach to problem-solving

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious finance professional looking to progress their career within a thriving financial services business. If you're looking for a commercially focused role where you can make a genuine impact while working closely with senior leadership, I'd be keen to speak with you.
