Finance Systems Manager
Where Finance, Technology & Innovation Come Together
Are you the person who sees financial systems not just as tools, but as opportunities?
We’re looking for a Finance Systems Manager who thrives at the intersection of finance, technology and progress — someone who enjoys improving systems, empowering people, and shaping smarter ways of working through automation and AI.
This role sits at the heart of a dynamic finance function, acting as the bridge between Finance, IT, hotel teams and external partners, ensuring our financial systems are accurate, compliant, efficient — and ready for the future.
What You’ll Be Doing
As our Finance Systems Manager, you’ll take full ownership of our financial systems landscape — from PMS, POS and AP platforms through to accounting software — ensuring everything works seamlessly together.
You’ll:
* Be the go‑to expert for all finance systems, owning the roadmap and driving continuous improvement
* Partner closely with Finance leadership, Hotel teams and IT to turn business needs into effective system solutions
* Lead month‑end and year‑end close processes, identifying opportunities to automate, improve accuracy and save time

* Design and deliver user‑friendly training, empowering colleagues to confidently use and understand our systems
* Maintain system controls, access governance and compliance, regularly auditing risk and improving processes at source
* Build and lead a growing financial systems team, shaping its future and supporting change and development projects
Who This Role Is For

You’ll bring:
* An accounting or finance qualification, or strong practical experience in month‑end and financial processes
* Proven experience managing hospitality financial systems, including PMS, POS, AP and Sage
* Strong systems and data knowledge, with SQL experience preferred and an interest in AI tools
* A commercial, entrepreneurial mindset with a proactive approach to problem‑solving
* Confidence working in a control‑led, regulated environment, with a strong eye for detail

* Advanced Microsoft Office skills
* The ability to prioritise effectively in a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment
* A genuine appetite to learn, grow and drive change
