My client is a successful division of a multinational business with several sites in the UK. They are seeking to appoint a Head of Finance to oversee the finances for their manufacturing facility and manage a small yet experienced team to ensure all financial reporting needs are met at a site and corporate level. The ideal candidate would be comfortable in a down to earth environment with previous experience of a Financial Controller or Finance Manager role with a highly operational slant. The business is going through an exciting period of development and you should be comfortable adapting to change and managing the reporting requirements for global parent company whilst also being hands on and digging in to the detail. As Head of Finance / Financial Controller on the site you will work closely with the site MD and divisional managers developing financial strategy and analysing business performance, implementing a better reporting structure around product profitability and job costing whilst also ensuring accurate cash flow forecasts and budgets are produced. This will be a challenging role offering the opportunity to make a real difference to site performance and requires a commercial qualified accountant with the gravitas and personality to gain credibility at all levels.
Only those applicants who have a legal right to work within the UK and possess a suitable amount of UK based finance experience will be considered, candidates already registered will be considered automatically.
