Paying up to 65,000 based on experience

We're looking for a commercially minded Financial Planning & Reporting Manager to join a busy, fast-growing sales-led organisation.

Reporting to the Associate Director of Finance & Reporting, you'll be building new reporting capabilities from the ground up, delivering high-quality analysis, and giving senior leadership the insights they need to drive performance.

• Strong Excel skills (ideally including macros and VBA), plus confidence in PowerPoint and Word
• A recognised accountancy qualification (or working towards one)
• Proven analytical ability with a proactive, problem-solving mindset
• The ability to manage deadlines while staying adaptable to changing priorities
• An eagerness to understand complex systems, processes, and the mechanics of a business
• A "can-do" approach and the confidence to turn multiple data inputs into clear, concise information

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy turning numbers into stories, and want to be part of a business on a steep growth trajectory, we'd love to hear from you.
