This position is part of a ‘journey’, and will suit an individual who is comfortable with the challenges typically experienced within a high-growth start-up.

Experience of tax, duty and VAT will be beneficial and you will need to be the type of person who uses initiative and commercial acumen to resolve challenges.

In addition to this, you will be a close aid and a sounding board for the highly supportive, knowledgeable Head Of Finance, assisting with the production of commercially insightful financial information.

The Management Team are highly credible and are very open and welcoming to ideas and insight on this growth journey. The business is in a phenomenal position within a market they know well and the people within the business are truly lovely!

Creating and implementing financial & operational policies and procedures across the business
Coaching and guiding senior stakeholders so they can embrace new processes and policies
Working closely with business stakeholders to support the diverse day to day activities
Prepare monthly, quarterly and annual forecasts/ budgets as required
Monitor closing activities and effectively prepare for closing result reports in cooperation with our local accounting & tax advisors.
Creating insightful month end management reporting for UK & European management
Cashflow management – Proactively manage cash forecasting, highlighting cash positions and recommending corrective measures if required.
Understanding tax, duty, VAT and ensuring submissions to HMRC /industry bodies are accurate and compliant. Assisting in any audits / queries from the relevant authorities.

You must be I.T. literate and highly adept with Excel.

This is a challenging but rewarding opportunity for the successful individual, who will be able to help to shape the current and future financial performance of the business and be given the autonomy to put their stamp on it.

If this is you, please apply ASAP as our client is ideally keen to recruit swiftly.
