Recruiter:Paul Card Recruitment
Reference:3103428789
Type:Permanent
Salary:£50,000 - £60,000 Annual
Location:Wolsingham, Durham
Description:

If you're looking for a role where you can shape something, not just maintain it, this could be worth a look.

This business has just secured significant investment from a well-established industry partner. It's not a cold acquisition. These organisations already know each other well and are trading successfully. Now, they're building something bigger together, with combined revenues of 45m and clear growth ambitions.

That's where you come in.

You'll step into a Finance Manager role with real visibility, reporting directly to the Group Finance Director. You'll be trusted to get up to speed quickly, take ownership, and start making an impact from day one.

This isn't a "sit back and delegate" position. It's hands-on. You'll be rolling your sleeves up, improving processes, and helping build a finance function that's fit for a growing group.


What's in it for you?

You'll have the chance to:

  • Play a key role in bringing two businesses together
  • Shape finance processes, systems and reporting
  • Gain exposure to group-level decision-making
  • Build leadership experience managing a small team
  • Work closely with an experienced Group Finance Director

It's a role where your work will be seen and valued.


What you'll be doing

  • Managing cash flow and producing forecasts
  • Preparing monthly management accounts with analysis
  • Supporting integration of reporting processes
  • Developing and improving finance systems
  • Supervising two Finance Administrators


What they're looking for

You'll likely be a qualified accountant, although strong qualified-by-experience candidates will be considered.

You'll also:

  • Be comfortable working without a detailed handover
  • Have experience producing management accounts and cash flow forecasts
  • Enjoy improving processes and systems
  • Take a hands-on approach and work in the detail when needed

If you prefer fully established systems and structure, this may not be the right fit.

But if you enjoy building, improving and being part of growth, it could be.
