Job description
Finance Manager
Northampton (Home-Based) | £62,000 - £70,000 + 10% Bonus
The Opportunity
This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for an ambitious ACA-qualified accountant to join a rapidly growing PE-backed business at a pivotal moment in their growth story. With projections to double in size over the next two years, this Finance Manager role offers the perfect platform for someone ready to make their mark outside practice.
The Role
Reporting directly to the Head of Finance, you'll take ownership of a genuinely broad and varied remit that will stretch and develop you:
75% Technical Accounting & Consolidation:
* Group consolidations and technical accounting
* Intercompany accounts and reconciliations
* Month-end and year-end processes
* Technical reporting and compliance
25% Commercial & Business Partnering:
* Budget preparation and forecasting
* Business partnering across the group
* Commercial insight and analysis
* Supporting strategic decision-making
Working Arrangements
This is a home-based role with occasional office or site meetings, offering genuine flexibility whilst keeping you connected to the business and wider finance team.
What We're Looking For
We're seeking an ACA-qualified accountant from a Top 4 background who is either making their first move into industry or their second move (having initially left Big 4). While technical capability is important, what will really set you apart is your personality, drive, and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, changing environment.
This business isn't looking for someone who simply wants to clock in and out. They want someone energised by variety, excited by growth, and eager to roll their sleeves up and make things happen.
Why This Business?
This organisation has built an outstanding reputation for promoting from within and rewarding hard work. Progression isn't based on arbitrary timelines here-it's earned through performance and delivery. For the right candidate, this role offers a clear pathway upwards as quickly as you can demonstrate you're ready for it.
The breadth of the role means you'll gain exposure across technical accounting, commercial finance, and business partnering-building a skillset that will serve your entire career.
Package
* Salary: £62,000 - £70,000 (dependent on experience)
* Bonus: 10%
* Location: Home-based (Northampton area)
* Progression: Fast-track career development in a rapidly scaling business
