• Strengthening and improving internal controls, processes and reporting quality
• Leading, developing and performance‑managing a small finance team
• Working closely with senior leaders and non‑finance stakeholders to support decision‑making across the value chain
• Holding regular performance conversations with operational managers to drive commercial outcomes
• Supporting ERP system development and process improvements within your remit
• Getting involved in ad‑hoc commercial and business improvement projects when it matters

What you’ll bring

• Fully qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA) (Desirable)
• Strong grounding in financial accounting, management accounting and consolidation
• Proven experience leading or managing a finance team. However, open to developing a future leader.
• Confidence operating in a multi‑entity, deadline‑driven environment
• Advanced Excel skills

• Willingness to travel occasionally where the role requires it

• Direct access to senior decision‑makers
• Scope to improve, modernise and leave things better than you found them
• A role that values judgement, not just compliance
