Are you looking to join an exciting high-growth start-up in the FMCG sector, in a truly Commercial and Operational role?
Our client is an award winning FMCG business in the drinks space, looking to take on their first Finance & Operations Manager. This is the number 2 role in Finance for an exciting business just under 3 years old, supporting the Operations Director, and working with a hugely passionate founder who is highly regarded in the sector.
You will get to work with an experienced FD, who will mentor you but let you work autonomously, and feed you a wealth of knowledge of both the industry and Finance, as well be encouraged to take on as much responsibility as you can handle.
You will need to get fully involved in managing business performance, and supporting all commercial and operational decisions with accurate financial analysis, planning, forecasts and cash flows; most of the financial reporting and month-end is outsourced.
You will also manage one direct report in a broad operational and finance support role, and truly learn how a business is run and managed end to end.
Essential skills:
- Recently qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA)
- Good knowledge of Management reporting
- Proven commercial acumen and strong Excel
- A Passion for startups; or drinks, events, FMCG
Experience working in or supporting a start-up or young business would be an advantage!
