About the Role
Are you a hand-on, senior finance professional looking to build and shape a critical capability?
As our Treasury, Tax & Working Capital Manager, you will transition our informal finance processes into a resilient, documented, and fully controlled function. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will take full ownership of cash forecasting, the FX hedging programme, credit insurance, and the end-to-end working-capital cycle.
This role is ideal for a qualified accountant with deep cash management exposure, including experienced Financial Controllers or Heads of Finance looking for a high-impact position. Technical tax preparation (such as transfer pricing and R&D claims) is outsourced to external advisers; your focus will be on leading tax governance and managing these strategic adviser relationships.
Key Responsibilities
- Cash Management (12.5%): Build and run the rolling 13-week cash forecast and daily cash positioning to establish active cash management as a standard discipline.
- FX & Hedging (7.5%): Manage and fully document the FX hedging programme against contracted currency exposures and committed payables, including year-end fair-value treatment.
- Working Capital & Team Leadership: Drive the end-to-end working-capital cycle. You will partner closely with Procurement and provide direct leadership to the Group Credit Controller to optimise the collection side of the cash-conversion cycle.
- Tax Governance: Own the governance, risk management, and strategic relationships with external tax advisers.
- Process Resilience: Transition informal, key-person dependencies into structured, documented, and scalable financial disciplines.
What We Are Looking For
- Qualifications: Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent).
- Experience: Proven, hands-on experience in cash management, treasury operations, and working capital cycles.
- Skills: Strong business-partnering capabilities, excellent documentation skills, and experience managing small teams or direct reports (like Credit Control).
- Mindset: A proactive builder who enjoys creating order, documenting processes, and establishing robust governance.
What We Offer
- Financial Reward: Competitive salary plus a performance-related 10% bonus.
- Retirement & Security:8% company pension contribution and comprehensive life assurance.
- Time Off:25 days annual leave plus all statutory bank holidays.
- Health & Wellbeing: Paid sick pay and an active cycle-to-work scheme.
- Culture: Regular company events and a collaborative, hybrid working environment.
