Finance Manager

RECfinancial are partnering exclusively with an established and growing business in the appointment of a Finance Manager.

This is a newly created role, offering the opportunity to take ownership of the day-to-day finance function and help shape it as the business enters its next phase of growth. The role is commutable from Leicester, Loughborough, Grantham, Melton Mowbray, Nottingham and the surrounding areas.

Working closely with the Directors, you'll take responsibility for the full finance function, combining hands-on accounting with the development of meaningful financial reporting to support commercial decision making. Responsibilities will include the production of monthly management accounts, P&L and balance sheet reporting, budgeting and forecasting, cashflow management, KPI reporting, profitability and cost analysis, VAT and supporting the business through its continued growth.

You'll play a key role in developing the finance function, improving processes and controls, enhancing reporting and providing the Directors with greater financial visibility as the business continues to expand.

We're particularly keen to hear from hands-on Finance Managers, Management Accountants or ambitious accountants looking to take the next step in their career. You may already have experience taking ownership of finance within an SME, or you could be looking for the opportunity to step up into a broader role where you can develop alongside the business.

Applications are welcomed from qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA candidates, those currently studying towards a professional qualification, AAT qualified accountants, or individuals who are qualified by experience (QBE). More important is having the right attitude, a strong grounding across management and financial accounting, and the ambition to take ownership and develop.

The salary on offer is £50,000 - £60,000, as well as a generous benefits package including a company performance bonus.

If you're looking for an opportunity where you can roll your sleeves up, work closely with the Directors and genuinely influence how a growing SME develops its finance function, we'd love to hear from you.
