Finance Manager

Home-Based / Remote UK | Potential Future London Attendance Ready to take ownership of a finance function rather than just one part of it? We're recruiting a hands-on Finance Manager for a successful and growing business operating within the construction and commercial interiors sector. This is a broad, practical role with responsibility for the day-to-day finance function. You'll work alongside an existing finance administrator and liaise with external accountants, while taking ownership of everything from management accounts and cash flow to credit control, VAT, CIS and Xero.

It could suit an experienced Finance Manager, but we're equally interested in an ambitious Management Accountant or similar who's ready to step up and take on more responsibility.

The Role You'll take responsibility for:
Preparing monthly management accounts Accounts payable and receivable Credit control and debtor management Sales invoicing and purchase orders Processing supplier and subcontractor invoices Bank reconciliations VAT and CIS Cash-flow reporting and forecasting Month-end processes This is an SME environment, so we're looking for someone who enjoys being hands-on. You'll need to be equally comfortable producing management information and getting into the detail when something needs sorting.

About You You'll need strong practical finance experience and, importantly, excellent working knowledge of Xero . You'll probably currently be working as a Finance Manager, Management Accountant, Assistant Finance Manager or in a similar hands-on finance role. We're particularly interested in someone who is:
Confident managing day-to-day finance independently Strong on management accounts, cash flow and credit control Experienced with VAT Familiar with CIS, or able to get up to speed quickly Commercially minded and interested in what sits behind the numbers Organised, proactive and comfortable working remotely Keen to improve processes rather than simply maintain them

Experience with in construction, fit-out, interiors or a similar project-based business would be a real advantage, but isn't essential. The Opportunity This is an opportunity to become a key part of a growing business and take genuine ownership of its finance function. It's particularly well suited to someone who wants more autonomy, more responsibility and greater commercial exposure than they're getting in their current role.

The position is currently home-based and candidates can be located anywhere in the UK. There may be a requirement for some attendance at a London office in the future, but there will be flexibility around frequency and working arrangements. If you're good with the numbers, confident with Xero and ready to make a finance function your own, we'd like to hear from you.
