Finance Manager - pa

Overview

Our client, a multi-award winning, market leader supplies a range of quality branded products and services to its predominantly Scottish, but UK-wide client base. A genuine employer of choice, this well established, profitable and now significantly growing £8m+ turnover business has a reputation for exceptional customer service and loyalty. The effective management of growth necessitates the strengthening of the existing finance team.

As such the business seeks to recruit a Finance Manager who critically, has the potential to quickly (a matter of months) step up into the Financial Controller role after an initial transitional period.
