The business has experienced significant growth and has a refreshingly grown-up culture built around trust, autonomy and working together. This is a great opportunity to join a small, friendly team where you'll be trusted to take ownership, make decisions and have a real impact.

- Providing better visibility around business costs, including engineer and
operational costs
- Supporting month-end and year-end processes
- Overseeing larger debtor accounts where required
- Liaising with external accountants and other stakeholders
- Using Sage and Excel to maintain accurate and meaningful financial information
Experience, skills and attributes for the Finance Manager
- Previous experience in a hands-on Finance Manager, Management Accountant or similar role
- Strong balance sheet reconciliation and management accounts experience
- Experience of stock/inventory accounting would be highly beneficial
- Strong Sage and Excel skills
- ACA, ACCA, CIMA, Qualified, part-qualified or qualified by experience considered
- Confident working independently and taking ownership
- Strong attention to detail and a practical approach to problem solving
- Positive and proactive, with the confidence to challenge when needed
- Someone who enjoys being part of a small, busy and friendly team
What's in it for you?
- Salary of £40,000 - £48,000 depending on experience
- Full-time role with flexibility around working hours
- Office-based initially, with scope for some hybrid working after probation
- A friendly, down-to-earth team of around 15 people
- A culture built around trust, autonomy and working together

This is very much a hands-on role for someone who enjoys getting stuck in, bringing structure to a growing business and becoming a trusted part of the wider team.
