Produce statutory accounts and ensure compliance with UK accounting standards and reporting requirements.
Manage the month-end and year-end close processes.
Maintain the integrity of the general ledger and chart of accounts.

Maintain a robust financial control environment and identify opportunities to strengthen processes.
Manage relationships with external auditors, accountants, and regulatory bodies.
Ensure compliance with all relevant financial, tax, and reporting regulations.

Budgeting, Forecasting & Cash Management

Lead the annual budgeting and forecasting process.
Monitor financial performance against budget and provide meaningful analysis and recommendations.
Manage cash flow, working capital, and liquidity to support business objectives.

Commercial & Strategic Support

Provide financial insight and analysis to support business decision-making.
Identify opportunities to improve profitability, efficiency, and financial performance.
Support business growth initiatives, investment decisions, and operational improvements.

About You

Proven track record of producing high-quality management and statutory accounts.
Experience leading and developing finance teams.
Strong background within an SME environment, with the ability to operate both strategically and hands-on.
Experience within wholesale, distribution, retail, e-commerce, or related sectors would be advantageous.

Skills & Attributes

Commercially astute with strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
Excellent communication skills, capable of translating complex financial data into clear insights that support effective decision-making.
High level of integrity, professionalism, and attention to detail.
Proactive, adaptable, and capable of working autonomously.
Strong organisational and leadership skills.

What We Offer

Competitive salary commensurate with experience.
Senior leadership position with genuine influence on business performance and direction.
Opportunity to work closely with the Managing Director and wider leadership team.
Stable and growing business with ambitious plans for the future.
