The Role

Reporting to the Financial Controller, this role plays a key part in preparing the monthly management accounts across our UK and US trading entities. The role is based in our Harrogate office, working alongside our finance team, and is hybrid with 3 days a week in the office.

This is an opportunity to build your career within a well-established, high‑performing finance function. It’s well suited to someone looking to broaden their commercial exposure. You’ll take ownership of sales, margin and stock reporting, lead on standard cost and purchase price variance analysis, and business partner closely with FP&A and the wider business.

You’ll be joining a team with a positive, can‑do culture. We live by our “Be a Good Egg” value, bringing honesty, kindness and a willingness to roll up our sleeves and support each other, even on the busiest days.

We’re a B Corp on a mission to supercharge the wellbeing of our communities and our planet with 100% natural fragrances, and we’ve been named one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work two years running. Our benefits include a monthly product allowance, a generous staff discount, enhanced healthcare, extra wellbeing days, your birthday off, volunteering time and enhanced family leave.
