Finance Manager / Management Accountant
(3 days per week – progression to Financial Controller)
About the CompanyWe are a progressive, fast‑growing business in the fitness industry, combining creativity, production, and technology to support a rapidly expanding client base.
We operate as a fully remote organisation, with no permanent office, supported by strong communication and trust‑based working practices. We bring the team together through a weekly all‑company meeting, daily huddles and optional monthly in‑person team meetups.
As the business scales, we are developing a finance function that can grow with it. We are looking for a hands‑on Finance Manager / Management Accountant to take ownership of day‑to‑day finance operations, reporting, and financial controls on a 3‑day‑per‑week basis initially, with scope to increase hours over time.
A fractional Finance Director provides high‑level guidance, but this role will be the primary internal finance lead. There is a clear pathway for the role to develop into Financial Controller as the business grows.
Role OverviewThis is a hands‑on, operational finance role suited to someone who enjoys working in a growing, forward‑thinking environment. Initially, the role will cover invoicing, reconciliations, payroll, and reporting. Over time, transactional and admin‑heavy work can be delegated to a finance/admin assistant, allowing the role to focus increasingly on review, control, and commercial insight.
An interest in fitness, sport, or healthy living is highly desirable, as the role works closely with teams and clients within the fitness industry.

Ds - Monitoring cashflow and supporting budgets and forecasts
