The role of the Commercial Finance Manager / Controller is a crucial position overseeing the financial performance of a large subsidiary business. There is no involvement in month end management accounts, so your role will solely focus on analysing the numbers and using this to inform future commercial decision making.

The company is a globally recognised large organisation within the industrial and manufacturing industry.

This role sits within the controlling / business partnering function specifically within a multi-million £ turnover subsidiary. The role offers a lot of exposure to senior stakeholders, dealing with Vice Presidents and CEOs. There is a high potential for growth and the role would be perfect for someone who is quite ambitious with the aim of offering progression opportunities in the next 3-5 years.

There is no involvement in the production of management accounts, but you will be producing performance packs (presentation slides, analysis of costs, ad hoc analysis, action plans in terms of helping divisional CEOs improve performance, etc.) You will also be heavily involved in advising on approval requests (for projects or investments) and working on the numbers behind that. A lot of your time would also be spent helping the Sales Directors with business proposals - making sure they are profitable / feasible. You'll also get involved with monthly forecasting and budgeting.

A successful Commercial Finance Manager / Controller should have:

  • A relevant CIMA, ACCA, or ACA qualification
  • Solid understanding of balance sheet and P&L
  • Ideally some commercial / business partnering experience although this is not essential
  • Good systems knowledge

A salary up to £60,000. An opportunity to work in a hybrid work environment, balancing office and home working. A generous holiday entitlement. A collaborative and supportive company culture that encourages growth and development.
