• 28 days' holiday + birthday off (including Bank Holidays).
• Team recognition programme to celebrate your achievements.
• Referral bonus scheme for recommending top talent - earn up to £1000.
• Complimentary team meals on shift.
• Long Service Awards - dinners for two with all the trimmings, complimentary room stays with breakfast and dinner, theatre tickets to see The Lion King, and so much more.
• Access to apprenticeships and accredited qualifications up to Level 4.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Control & Reporting

• Own the month-end process from start to finish-delivering accurate management accounts, ensuring compliance with UK GAAP, and partnering with auditors and stakeholders to keep everything seamless and on track.

Budgeting

• Lead the annual budgeting journey-partner with GMs and department heads to craft realistic forecasts, monitor performance, and turn insights into smart, corrective actions that keep us on track.

Business Support

• Shape the commercial strategy with data-driven insight-deliver powerful financial models, deep profitability analysis, and challenge GMs to elevate performance and unlock growth.

Compliance & Management

• Safeguard financial integrity across every site-embed robust policies, maintain internal controls, and lead periodic audits to ensure absolute compliance and confidence in our processes.

Team Leadership and Development

• Champion financial excellence-drive best practices, consistency, and a culture of continuous improvement across every hotel and the wider finance function.

Qualifications & Experience

• Proven experience managing finance across multiple business units or hotels.
• Strong commercial acumen and analytical skills.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.
• Comfortable working in a growing environment and keen to assist with developing the groups finance function.
• Knowledge of Excel and familiarity with hotel systems (e.g. Opera PMS/Rezlynx, Sage, Sage Intacct, or similar).

At Signet Collection, we believe that our appearance reflects the luxury and elegance our guests expect when they stay with us. As you consider joining our team, we want to remind you of the importance of presenting yourself in a way that reflects our style of hospitality; warm, charming, and polished.
