• Bring experience gained within a fast-paced SME environment, demonstrating a hands-on and solutions-focused approach

• Have strong analytical skills and excellent attention to detail, with the ability to communicate financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders

• Ideally have exposure to manufacturing or a product-based environment, although this is not essential
