This is an opportunity for a qualified Finance Manager to join a high‑growth, PE‑backed digital consumer business on a 12‑month fixed‑term contract. The business has delivered strong, sustained performance over the last three years, with EBITDA running approximately 20% ahead of budget and continued double‑digit growth driven by its leading position in the UK consumer market.

The business is heavily investing in AI, automation and agent‑based workflows; you will be responsible for identifying, building and embedding AI‑driven solutions that materially reduce manual effort and reshape how the team operates. Reporting to the Financial Controller, you will also take ownership of the full management accounting and month‑end reporting cycle for one brand.

Key responsibilities
  • Own the end‑to‑end month‑end close, delivering accurate, timely and insight‑led management accounts for one brand.
  • Use Claude and other AI tools to design, build and implement AI‑driven workflows that automate elements of the close cycle (e.g. reconciliations, accruals, reporting packs).
  • Develop and refine 'agentic' finance processes using Claude and complementary automation tools to reduce manual intervention across month‑end, cash flow and reporting.
  • Identify and execute automation opportunities using Claude, AI platforms and workflow tools in combination with existing finance systems and data sources.
  • Manage and develop one part‑qualified accountant.
  • Act as a key driver of the broader finance AI transformation agenda within the group.
What we’re looking for
  • ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified with strong management accounting and month‑end ownership experience.
  • Demonstrable experience using AI tools or automation to improve finance processes (or clear, practical curiosity and experimentation in this space).
  • Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence non‑finance teams.
  • Experience mentoring or managing junior team members.
  • Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, change‑oriented environment where processes are being actively rebuilt.
  • Experience working in a fast‑growth Tech / PE backed business is desirable.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a role where traditional finance ownership meets genuine transformation. You will be joining a forward‑thinking, entrepreneurial environment where AI is not an add‑on, but a core part of how the finance function will operate going forward.
