Salary: Up to c£75k + bonus + package
(ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified)
Ready to fast-track your journey to FD? This role, your next CFO and this company is your springboard to achieve just that.
Our client is a thriving £28m turnover engineering and manufacturing business with big ambitions, and they are seeking a sharp, ideas-driven Head of Finance. This newly created role isnt just another step - its your launchpad to becoming a Finance Director.
Over the past few years, the business has quadrupled in size under the leadership of a hugely impressive CFO - a CFO who is not only passionate about growth but is equally invested in coaching and mentoring future finance leaders. In fact, his track record is clear: empower people, give them autonomy, and get them ready for the next big leap in their career.
Now, with the next phase of growth strategy in place for the next few years, they are looking for someone who is equally ambitious - someone who loves bringing fresh ideas, wants real autonomy, and has the career hunger to match the companys energy.
Whats in it for you?
Be mentored by one of the best. The CFO isnt just impressive on paper - its clear across the business just how well-respected and genuinely liked he is. When we toured the site, it was obvious: finance is the heartbeat of the business.
Step into a truly pivotal role. Finance already holds a seat at the top table here - with the CFO leading procurement, IT, ESG, and Health & Safety alongside finance.
Shape the future. From Sage 200 system implementation to rolling out Microsoft CoPilot, to embedding AI and automation into finance processes - this is a company excited about innovation, and you'll be right at the centre of it.
Be part of a values-driven business. ESG and sustainability arent tick-box exercises here - theyre embedded into the company's agenda.
Grow with a business that keeps its people. High retention rates across all functions, long-serving employees, and a genuine sense of pride and belonging.
