Finance Manager — a role with influence, variety and brilliant leadership If you’re a qualified accountant who enjoys improving things, owning your space and working with genuinely impressive people, this one’s worth a closer look. You’ll be joining a profitable, growing £200m group that’s expanding both organically and through acquisition. There’s stability here, but also real investment, modernisation and plenty of change to get involved in. It’s the kind of environment where finance is listened to — and where good ideas actually get acted on. Offering up to £60,000 + £7k Car Allowance + Matched Pension + other benefits What really sets this apart is the leadership. The FD and MD are exceptional — genuinely two of the brightest, most capable people you could work with. Supportive, modern, commercial and very people-led. If you want to learn, grow and be challenged in the right way, this team will give you that. What you’ll be involved in • Leading monthly management accounts, budgeting, forecasting and cash reporting, • Strengthening controls, improving processes and giving the business better financial visibility, • Partnering with operations, supply chain, IT, HR and commercial teams, • Supporting acquisition integration and playing a key role in an upcoming ERP implementation, • Owning core compliance, statutory support and audit delivery, • Helping shape how finance evolves as the business grows in size and complexity You’ll typically spend three days a week in the East Midlands HQ, with the flexibility to structure the rest of your time around what works best for you and the business. Who this suits Someone qualified (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) who enjoys variety, problem-solving and making things better — not just ticking boxes. Someone curious and proactive, who likes being close to the action. Someone who wants to grow — and appreciates working with leaders who make you sharper. Why it’s a great move • Fantastic leadership — the kind of leaders who genuinely raise the bar, • A mix of BAU, partnering and project work, • Stable, profitable business that’s still growing, • Big scope to influence processes, systems and decision making, • Chance to shape a finance function that’s modernising, investing and evolving If you want a role where you’re trusted, stretched and supported — and where the people around you genuinely raise your game — this is a brilliant next step.
