Our client is a practical, forward-thinking company that designs, programs and builds much of its own equipment internally, takes pride in doing things properly and moves quickly when good ideas emerge. It is also a stable, down-to-earth business where people stay, with many team members having been with the company for more than five years. The role will suit a commercially minded finance leader who can see the wider business picture while remaining comfortable with the detail, explaining not just what the figures are, but what they mean, what needs attention and where the opportunities lie. Why you ll want to join: A senior role with direct access to the Board of Directors. Genuine influence over business planning, investment and commercial decisions. Responsibility for leading and developing the full finance function. The opportunity to improve systems, reporting and financial processes.

Developing useful financial KPIs and performance measures. Improving accounting systems, reporting processes and internal controls. Identifying opportunities for automation and more efficient ways of working. Liaising with auditors, banks, advisers and other external stakeholders. Leading, mentoring and developing the finance team. Because the role combines strategic responsibility with hands-on financial leadership, it will suit someone who is equally comfortable discussing business performance with the Board of Directors and getting into the detail when something in the figures does not look right. What You ll Bring You will need to be a qualified Accountant, holding an ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent recognised qualification, with previous experience in a senior finance leadership role. You should also bring: Strong management accounting, budgeting and forecasting experience. Proven experience managing cash flow, liquidity and working capital.
