Finance Manager 

Step into a high-impact finance role at the heart of a dynamic, complex organisation.

We’re looking for a technically strong and commercially aware Finance Manager to join a high-performing corporate finance team. This is a fantastic opportunity to shape financial reporting, influence senior stakeholders, and take ownership of key statutory and technical accounting areas within a large, fast-paced business.

The Opportunity
You’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring the integrity, accuracy, and compliance of external financial reporting. Working closely with senior leadership and a wide network of finance stakeholders, you’ll contribute to business-critical decisions and strategic initiatives.
This is more than a reporting role — it’s a chance to bring insight, drive continuous improvement, and make a real impact.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Lead and support statutory and external reporting, including group and subsidiary accounts
  • Partner with auditors to deliver a smooth and efficient external audit process
  • Provide guidance on technical accounting matters, including complex judgements and policy development
  • Own and deliver impairment modelling across key balance sheet areas
  • Support monthly and quarterly reporting to the Group and wider stakeholders
  • Contribute to budgeting and long-term planning, including debt and interest forecasts
  • Drive process improvement and automation across reporting activities
  • Play a key role in finance projects (e.g. structural simplification, system/process enhancements)
  • Build strong relationships across finance, leadership teams, and external partners
  • Line manage and develop a junior team member, fostering a high-performance culture
What We’re Looking For
  • Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent)
  • Strong experience in technical accounting and external reporting
  • Proven ability to work with auditors and complex group structures
  • Confident communicator — able to translate technical detail into clear, actionable insight
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to influence senior stakeholders
  • A proactive approach, with the agility to adapt in a fast-changing environment
  • Passion for continuous improvement and delivering high-quality outputs
Why Join?
  • Work in a strategically important finance team with direct exposure to senior leadership
  • Opportunity to shape reporting processes and influence best practice
  • Broad role spanning technical, commercial, and project work
  • Supportive environment with real focus on development and progression
  • Hybrid working and a collaborative, forward-thinking culture
If you’re looking for your next step in external reporting within a business that values expertise, innovation and impact — we’d love to hear from you.
