Financial Controller - Manufacturing Business
South London (hybrid)
£65 - 75,000 + package
A manufacturing business based in South London ( t/o < £5m) is seeking a dynamic and hands-on Financial Controller to join their team. This small but rapidly growing business has recently secured significant investment and is poised for further expansion. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the finance function within an international brand, offering a competitive salary and benefits package, as well as excellent scope for professional growth and development. You will report to the owner / CEO and expect to be promoted to a Finance Director position in the future.
In this broad and varied role, you will take responsibility for overseeing the day-to-day financial operations, including accounts payable and receivable, payroll, and the general ledger. You will also manage and develop junior finance staff, with the opportunity to grow the team as the business expands.
Key responsibilities include preparing financial statements, budgets, and forecasts, as well as delivering monthly management accounts and month-end. You will ensure compliance with tax laws and relevant regulations and guarantee that financial records and processes are fully audit-ready for the yearly audit. In addition, you will provide valuable insights and analytics to support strategic decision-making for the founders and the board.
Given the company’s stage of growth and the nature of this role, there will also be a significant amount of ad hoc project work. You will have the opportunity to identify and implement process improvements to enhance financial efficiency and drive positive change across the finance function.
The ideal candidate will be a fully qualified accountant with proven ability to operate effectively within a manufacturing, distribution, and retail environment. You will have a strong understanding of financial processes and controls, coupled with excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
If you are an ambitious and adaptable finance professional looking to make a real impact in a thriving luxury business, we would love to hear from you.
