Finance Business Partner - Manufacturing Excellence


Leading Manufacturing Group | Northampton | £65,000 + Benefits

Are you a newly qualified finance professional ready to make your mark in a dynamic manufacturing environment?

Our client, a well-established manufacturing leader with a robust presence across the UK, is seeking an ambitious Finance Business Partner to join their expanding team in Northampton. This is an exceptional opportunity for a recently qualified accountant to develop their career within a forward-thinking organisation that values innovation, growth, and professional development.


The Role

As Finance Business Partner, you'll be at the heart of business decision-making, working closely with operational teams to drive financial performance and strategic initiatives. This isn't just about numbers - you'll be a trusted advisor, helping shape the future direction of the business whilst developing your commercial acumen in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

Key Responsibilities:

* Partner with senior management to provide strategic financial insight and business support
* Prepare detailed management accounts, forecasts, and variance analysis
* Lead monthly business reviews and present findings to stakeholders
* Drive process improvements and automation initiatives across finance functions
* Support budgeting and planning cycles with operational teams
* Conduct profitability analysis and margin improvement projects
* Assist with project appraisals and capital investment decisions
* Mentor junior team members and contribute to team development

What We're Looking For:

Essential:

* Recently qualified (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) or finalist with strong academic results
* 2-4 years' experience in a finance role, preferably within manufacturing or industrial sectors
* Advanced Excel skills and experience with ERP systems
* Strong analytical mindset with excellent attention to detail
* Exceptional communication skills and ability to influence stakeholders
* Proactive approach with genuine enthusiasm for problem-solving

Desirable:

* Experience with financial modelling and business case development
* Knowledge of manufacturing processes and cost accounting
* PowerBI or similar data visualisation tools
* Previous exposure to continuous improvement methodologies


What's On Offer

* Competitive salary: £65,000 per annum
* Career progression: Clear pathway to senior finance roles with structured development programme
* Comprehensive benefits package: Including private healthcare, pension scheme, and life assurance
* Flexible working: Hybrid arrangements available after probationary period
* Professional development: Ongoing training opportunities and support for further qualifications
* Modern facilities: State-of-the-art offices with excellent transport links
* Collaborative culture: Join a supportive team environment that celebrates success


Why This Role Stands Out

This position offers the perfect blend of technical finance expertise and commercial business partnering. You'll gain exposure to all aspects of the business whilst working with cutting-edge manufacturing processes and technologies. Our client has an excellent track record of promoting from within, with many senior finance professionals having started their careers in similar roles.

The Northampton location provides excellent connectivity to London and the Midlands, with a thriving local economy and competitive cost of living. You'll be joining a business that has weathered economic challenges and emerged stronger, with ambitious growth plans for the coming years.
