Sellick Partnership is delighted to be partnering with a well-established, profitable, international branded business in Lancashire to recruit a Finance Manager.

This opportunity has arisen due to an internal promotion - a clear reflection of the genuine progression and development available within the organisation. Reporting to a forward thinking Financial Controller, this role offers broad exposure across the business and the chance to make a tangible impact.

This is a pivotal role at the heart of the business, responsible for the integrity of the UK general ledger and the delivery of accurate, timely group reporting. You will lead and develop a talented Financial Reporting team of three, while acting as a key liaison for internal and external auditors and partnering closely with senior finance leadership.

In this role, you will provide strong financial stewardship across period-end, year-end and group consolidations, safeguarding the robustness of the UK balance sheet and raising standards of quality and control. You will play a critical role in managing FX exposure across multiple currencies, overseeing VAT and indirect tax compliance, and leading the preparation of UK statutory accounts under FRS 101. Beyond core reporting, you'll champion continuous improvement, support major initiatives such as D365 optimisation, SOX readiness and technical accounting change, and help shape a resilient, future-ready finance function.

To thrive in this role, you will be a qualified accountant (ACA or ACCA or CIMA) with strong technical expertise in group reporting, consolidations and accounting standards, combined with proven experience of leading and developing teams.

You will bring a proactive, detail-driven mindset and the confidence to review, challenge and improve financial outputs. Strong communication and relationship-building skills are essential, enabling you to translate complex finance issues into clear, practical insights and to influence effectively across the business as a trusted finance leader.

You will need to be confident working with a diverse range of people and cultures and have excellent communication skills. We are looking for someone with sparkle, drive & energy to come in and really drive some significant improvement and challenge effectively.

If you consider yourself to be a committed, career driven professional who can demonstrate the above experience and who would welcome the stimulus of this finance post then we would be pleased to hear from you.
