You'll understand the importance of: WIP Stock control Inventory accounting Manufacturing costings Understanding how operational performance feeds into financial results We're particularly interested in people who have come through a transactional finance route and have developed their accounting career from the ground up. You might currently be a Finance Manager, Assistant Financial Controller, Senior Management Accountant or Financial Controller who is looking for significantly more ownership and autonomy. Most importantly, you'll be: Hands-on. Commercial. Ambitious. Curious. Someone who wants to build something rather than simply maintain it. Why This Role? ??
