The position is ideally suited to candidates from construction, house building, civil engineering, infrastructure, or other long-term contract environments.

Key Responsibilities
  • Partner with senior leaders to provide financial insight and support business performance.
  • Lead monthly management accounts, board reporting, budgeting, forecasting, and year-end processes.
  • Manage cashflow forecasting, working capital, and financial planning activities.
  • Support commercial and operational teams with project reporting, contract performance, and profitability analysis.
  • Ensure robust financial controls, governance, and statutory compliance across the business.
  • Oversee external audits and compliance with VAT, CIS, and other regulatory requirements.
  • Monitor performance, identify risks and opportunities, and drive improvements in profitability and cash generation.
  • Support business growth, acquisitions, and finance process improvements.
  • Develop and lead the finance team, promoting continuous improvement and high performance.
The Person

You will be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with experience operating as a Financial Controller, Head of Finance, or similar senior finance leader within a project-based business.

Candidates from construction, house building, civil engineering, infrastructure, or engineering contracting environments will be particularly relevant. You will possess strong technical accounting skills, commercial awareness, and experience supporting operational and project teams through effective financial reporting and analysis.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing organisation where finance plays a central role in driving operational success and future growth.
