Finance Manager

I’m delighted to be supporting a growing group business in Birmingham with the recruitment of a Finance Manager. This is a fantastic opportunity for a commercially minded finance professional to step into a broad role with real ownership and influence.

Reporting directly to the Finance Director, you will be a key member of the leadership team, overseeing day-to-day finance operations while driving improvements across controls, reporting and commercial support.

Key Responsibilities:

Full ownership of the balance sheet and management accounts across multiple entities

Integrating acquired companies into finance processes and reporting structures

Sign-off responsibility for VAT returns, bank reconciliations, payroll and inter-company reconciliations

Ownership of the budgets, Day 1 forecasts, cashflow, treasury and banking arrangements

FX management and scheduled tax payments, acting as liaison with HMRC

Stock reporting and interaction with commercial teams to support trading decisions

Oversight of property matters including lease and utility contract renewals

Maintaining a strong controls environment and driving process improvements

Developing and managing the finance team, ensuring continuous growth and performance

About You:

A qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) with post-qualified experience in a Finance Manager or similar leadership role

Strong technical skills across management accounts, controls, tax and treasury

Comfortable operating in a dynamic, multi-entity environment with acquisitions and integrations

Excellent communication skills with the ability to business partner across commercial and operational teams

Proven experience managing and developing a team

This role will suit a hands-on Finance Manager who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-moving environment, and wants to make a tangible impact in a growing business.

If you’re ready for a role with scope, autonomy and the chance to truly own finance, I’d love to hear from you.
