Full job description

About the organisation

We are a member‑owned, not‑for‑profit buying group, established to support independent businesses by improving purchasing power, securing competitive supplier terms, and reinvesting value back into our membership. Operated on cooperative principles, our focus is on financial sustainability, transparency, and long‑term member benefit rather than profit generation.

We are seeking a hands‑on Financial Controller to operate the finance function and act as a trusted partner to the Board and members.

The role

Reporting to the Board, you will have end‑to‑end responsibility for finance, ensuring robust controls, accurate reporting, and clear visibility of member funds, supplier rebates, and reserves. This role is central to maintaining trust, governance, and compliance within a cooperative, not‑for‑profit structure.

Key responsibilities

Full ownership of the finance function
Preparation of monthly management accounts, forecasts, and cash‑flow reporting
Accounting for supplier rebates, overriders, member returns, and deferred income
Accurate invoicing, reconciliations, and statements
Ensuring compliance with not‑for‑profit accounting principles and cooperative governance
Management of cash reserves in line with Board‑approved policies
Budgeting and financial planning focused on sustainability and member benefit
VAT, statutory returns, and liaison with external accountants/auditors
Supporting Board reporting with clear, transparent financial information
Developing and maintaining strong financial controls and processes
Ensuring financial clarity in member distributions, levies, or reinvestments
Continuous improvement of systems and financial reporting tools

About you

Fully or part‑qualified accountant (AAT/ACA / ACCA / CIMA) or QBE
Experience in not‑for‑profit, cooperative, mutual, association, or buying‑group environments highly desirable
Strong understanding of restricted funds, deferred income, accruals, and rebate accounting
Comfortable working in a hands‑on SME setting
High attention to detail with a strong sense of accountability and integrity
Confident communicating financial information to Boards and non‑finance stakeholders
Strong Excel skills and experience with SME finance systems (e.g. Xero, Sage)
Pragmatic, values‑driven, and motivated by member outcomes

Why join us

Purpose‑driven role supporting independent businesses
Opportunity to work at the heart of a member‑owned organisation
High‑trust role with visibility at Board and leadership level
Broad, fulfilling remit with real influence
Supportive, collaborative culture aligned to cooperative values
Flexible working arrangements where possible

How to apply

Please send your CV to [email protected] Informal conversations are welcomed ahead of application.

Pay: £30,000.00-£40,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Company pension

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Maldon CM9 5DG
