I am working exclusively with my logistics/distribution client who are recruiting a Finance Manager, responsible for providing commercial financial support to the Senior Management Team.
Reporting into the Head of Finance, the Finance Manager’s responsibilities will include:
- To produce monthly management accounts, Board reports, monthly forecasts and annual budgets
- To take full responsibility for the accounts production (actuals, forecasts, budgets, Board reports and ad-hoc analysis)
- To manage and develop a team of two analysts
- To build strong working relationships with operational management
- The ability to challenge non-finance professionals both day to day and in Board meetings
The ideal candidate will be a qualified accountant (CIMA/ACA/ACCA) with good communication skills as the role will liaise directly with Senior Managers and Directors. Strong analytical skills are required in order to investigate and explain variances and overall business performance, as well as the ability to work on own initiative is important as the role includes significant autonomy.
