Ireland Finance Manager en-GB

Here at innocent, we’re on a mission to make it easier for everyone to get more fruit and veg into their bodies. We started back in 1999 and since then we’ve gone from selling a few smoothies at a music festival to becoming one of Europe’s biggest drinks companies with around 1,000 people (and the B Corp seal of approval).

It’s nice to be able to say things like that but we’re not patting ourselves on the back just yet. We want to show everyone that it’s possible to be a successful business while looking after people and the planet too, so we’re trying to get better in pretty much every way. And that’s where this job comes in.

Ireland is one of our most exciting markets, and we're looking for a Finance Manager to help shape what comes next. You'll be the financial partner to our Ireland team, working closely with the Country Manager and leadership team in one of our fastest growing markets.

This is a role with real ownership. You'll lead financial planning, reporting and performance analysis across the whole business, helping teams understand what's driving results and where we should focus next. You'll also play a key role in keeping our financial controls strong and our decision-making sharp.

If you enjoy combining commercial thinking with financial rigour, and like being close to the action rather than watching from the sidelines, you'll feel right at home here.

We want innocent to be a great place to work, so we do lots of stuff to make people feel at home and try to make sure everyone’s career is shaping up the way they want it to. There are plenty of opportunities to have a go at something new or take things further.
