Pratap Partnership is delighted to be working with a leading manufacturing business in the Leeds area. Following significant investment this business has been on a real journey of recovery and is now looking for a Financial Controller to be based from their Leeds site. This isnt a standard financial controller role , this is a job that combines fairly mainstream back office accounting along with a real strong emphasis on the commercials and really getting to grips with the business .
The accounting itself is fairly basic and simple, this role would really look after all the back office accounting
- Payroll
- Purchase ledger
- Making sure all the books are up to date and accounts are on time and accurate
- VAT returns
- Management accounts
Reporting to the Plant Manager and with a dotted line to the Group MD, it is envisaged the accounting will take up about half your time with the other half spent looking at the profitability and the costs of the business . Have we made profit this month, How? Have we lost money , Why?
You will be boots on the ground and want to be into the details of every area of the business., finding out what areas they are losing and making money, understanding what every invoice relates to and what every area of the business does, why certain things are being done the way they are and what they can do to change and improve for future business growth.
You will be the type of person who wants to know the nuts of the bolts of a business, roll their sleeves up and get stuck in to the business detail, getting to know the people , how they work and how the work they do impacts the business.
It is a brilliant business to be part of and a very interesting and exciting new role. Manufacturing experience preferable
