A growing business is looking for an experienced Finance Director to take ownership of its financial function and provide clear financial insight to support future growth.
This is a hands-on role for someone who can manage the day-to-day finance function while also developing stronger financial planning, reporting and forecasting. You’ll work closely with senior leadership, the Board and investors, helping turn financial information into meaningful business decisions.
The role
You’ll oversee the existing finance processes, including transactions, VAT and payroll through Xero, while developing the function further to support financial planning and forecasting.
A key focus will be cash-flow planning and reporting, with Excel initially being used before transitioning towards more integrated planning within Xero. You’ll also be responsible for financial reporting to the Board and investors, as well as supporting reporting requirements connected to funded projects.
The role will also cover R&D Tax Credits, Capital Allowances and the management and revaluation of assets, including intangible assets. External support is available where specialist input is required.
What we're looking for
Full working knowledge of Xero is essential, particularly across financial transactions, VAT and payroll. Experience with Fathom would be advantageous, along with knowledge of cash-flow forecasting, R&D Tax Credits, Capital Allowances and asset accounting.
You’ll need to be comfortable presenting financial information to senior stakeholders and investors, working independently and providing practical insight rather than simply reporting the numbers.
The opportunity
This is a full-time Finance Director position working across 4 days per week, offering the opportunity to have genuine influence over the development of the finance function and the wider direction of the business.
If you’re an experienced finance professional looking for a broad leadership role where you can take ownership and help shape the next stage of a growing business, we’d like to hear from you.
We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background
