Full job description

About Greenplant

Greenplant is an established plant, tool and events hire company based in Wheatley, Oxfordshire, operating a substantial fleet from depots across Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. We serve a broad customer base — from sole traders and SMEs through to larger contractors, councils, facilities-management companies and Formula 1 races. The business is on a rapid upward trajectory, and we are creating a senior finance role to take full ownership of the finance function.

The Role

This is a hands-on, sole-charge Finance Manager position reporting directly to the CEO with some part time book-keeping support during a transitional period. You will own the day-to-day finances of the business and, equally, provide the management reporting, budgeting and commercial analysis the leadership team needs to make decisions. The role spans the full picture — from processing the transactions to presenting the numbers at board level — so we are looking for someone equally comfortable in the detail and in the strategic conversation. There will be a transitional period with the current bookkeeper.

Reports to: CEO

Works closely with: Commercial Manager, depot managers and the company’s external accountants

Location: Wheatley, Oxfordshire (with occasional travel to depots)

Key Responsibilities

Manage the monthly payroll process, liaising with the external accountants who run payroll; maintain people and pay data in Breathe HR
Lead the year-end accounts process in conjunction with the external accountants
Ensure the integrity of, and continuously improve, the Xero environment and its integration with MCS

Management reporting & planning

Produce monthly management accounts (profit & loss and balance sheet)
Cashflow forecasting and management
Board reports for the CEO
Regular sales figures and depot performance reporting to the CEO and depot managers
Build the budget for the coming financial year and report actual performance against it

Commercial & business partnering

Work with the Commercial Manager on the purchase and disposal of fleet (plant and vehicles), including asset-finance options
Provide financial analysis of new tenders
Carry out depot / site financial analysis
Prepare lending and finance proposals for banks and asset-finance providers

Person Specification

Essential

Proven experience running a finance function in an SME, ideally sole-charge or close to it
Full ownership of management accounts, budgeting and cashflow forecasting
Strong across the complete transactional cycle — sales and purchase ledger, credit control, bank reconciliation and VAT

Advanced Xero user, able to take an existing setup, assure its accuracy and improve its processes and integrations
AAT qualified, part-qualified or qualified ACCA / CIMA, or qualified by experience
Commercially minded, with sound analytical judgement

Desirable

Experience in plant, tool or equipment hire / rental
Working knowledge of MCS (or a comparable hire management system such as Syrinx, Point of Rental or inspHire)
Experience with Dext, Jibble and Breathe HR

Personal attributes

Hands-on and self-sufficient — happy owning both the detail and the strategic reporting

Proactive — spots problems early and takes ownership of fixing them
