Head of Finance \n Borehamwood \n £77,500-£84,000 \n Permanent \n There's a point in a growing business where finance needs to move beyond producing the numbers and start actively shaping what happens next. \n That's where this role sits. \n We're working with an established wholesale and e-commerce business that has grown significantly and is now investing in the next stage of its finance function. They need a Head of Finance who can bring greater structure to reporting, improve visibility around commercial performance and give the leadership team more useful information to make decisions. \n This is a broad SME finance leadership role based in Borehamwood, with responsibility for a small team and direct exposure to senior decision-makers. \n Where you'll make an impact \n A major priority will be improving the quality and usefulness of financial information across the business. \n Rather than simply maintaining existing routines, you'll have scope to review how things are done, identify what needs changing and implement more scalable ways of working. \n Key areas will include: \n\n • Taking ownership of monthly reporting and providing clear commentary on performance\n, • Giving senior leadership better visibility over revenue, gross margin, costs and profitability\n, • Strengthening forecasting, budgeting and cash flow planning\n, • Developing reporting around inventory, stock movements and working capital\n, • Reviewing existing finance processes and removing unnecessary manual work\n, • Improving controls across the balance sheet and transactional finance\n, • Managing banking, cash requirements and wider funding relationships\n, • Overseeing receivables, payables and credit control\n, • Developing systems and automation as the business becomes more sophisticated\n, • Managing intercompany positions and reconciliations\n, • Coordinating year-end requirements with external advisers and auditors\n, • Leading, supporting and developing the existing finance team\n, • Working closely with commercial and operational colleagues rather than finance operating in isolation\n\n Because this is a wholesale and e-commerce environment, stock is central to the numbers. You'll need to understand the relationship between inventory, purchasing, margin, cash and overall business performance. \n The background that will work well \n We're not looking for someone who needs a large finance infrastructure around them. \n You'll be comfortable taking ownership, working through problems yourself and deciding what good should look like as the business develops. \n ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification would be preferred, alongside experience such as: \n\n • Leading finance within an SME or owner-managed environment\n, • Producing and improving management information\n, • Building forecasts, budgets and financial models\n, • Working with inventory and understanding stock accounting\n, • Improving financial controls and month-end processes\n, • Strong working-capital and cash-flow management\n, • Developing finance systems, reporting tools or ERP processes\n, • Managing and developing a small team\n, • Partnering directly with senior leadership\n\n Previous exposure to a wholesale and e-commerce business would be particularly relevant, but broader experience within a product, distribution or stock-heavy environment could work equally well. \n Why consider it? \n This should appeal to someone who wants more ownership than a conventional Financial Controller position but still enjoys being close enough to the numbers to understand what is really happening. \n As Head of Finance, you'll have the remit to improve the finance function rather than simply inherit it, with the opportunity to put better reporting, processes and controls in place as the company continues to develop. \n The position is paying £77,500-£84,000 and is based in Borehamwood.

Individuals coming from larger Top 10 environments often find the client portfolio and service offering significantly different, so experience within the SME/OMB market is highly advantageous. \n Please note that the firm is unable to offer visa sponsorship and will generally prioritise candidates who are already within reasonable commuting distance of Watford. \n

The business has grown quickly, creating a genuine need to redesign processes, strengthen controls and build better financial reporting for the leadership team. \n Based in Borehamwood, you'll report directly into senior leadership, manage a small finance team and have the autonomy to shape how finance operates as the business moves into its next stage. \n The role \n As Financial Controller, you'll take responsibility for both the day-to-day finance operation and the development of a more scalable reporting and control environment. \n You'll be joining a stock-led wholesale and e-commerce business where understanding stock, margin, working capital and cash flow is particularly important. \n You'll be responsible for: \n\n • Producing monthly management accounts, including meaningful variance and margin analysis\n, • Redesigning finance processes and controls to support continued growth\n, • Developing management information and financial reporting for senior leadership\n, • Building budgets, forecasts and cash flow models\n, • Improving reporting around stock, gross profit, margins and working capital\n, • Taking ownership of balance sheet reconciliations and financial controls\n, • Managing cash, banking and funding relationships\n, • Overseeing transactional finance across receivables, payables and credit control\n, • Improving systems, automation and the wider finance infrastructure\n, • Managing intercompany accounting and reconciliations\n, • Preparing year-end files and liaising with external accountants and auditors\n, • Managing and developing a small finance team\n, • Working closely with operational and commercial teams across the business\n\n What we're looking for \n The successful Financial Controller will ideally be ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified and comfortable operating in an entrepreneurial SME environment where finance still needs developing. \n You'll probably have: \n\n • Previous experience leading or significantly managing an SME finance function\n, • Strong management accounting and financial reporting experience\n, • Experience improving processes, controls and reporting following business growth\n, • Good knowledge of stock accounting, margins and working capital\n, • Strong Excel and financial modelling skills\n, • Experience using modern accounting and ERP systems\n, • Confidence working directly with senior management and challenging where appropriate\n, • A practical approach and willingness to remain hands-on when required\n\n Exposure to online retail platforms or e-commerce accounting would be useful, although the core requirement is experience within a stock-led wholesale environment rather than being an e-commerce specialist. \n What's on offer \n The role offers a salary of £70,000-£80,000 alongside the opportunity to genuinely influence how a growing business manages its finances. \n For someone based around Borehamwood, this is a particularly interesting opportunity if you've reached the point where maintaining someone else's processes is becoming less appealing than actually building better ones. \n Applications are welcomed from qualified finance professionals looking for a broad, visible role where financial reporting, process improvement and commercial involvement all sit firmly within their remit.
