Job Description:

Location: West London / Greater London - Predominately site based 
Initial Duration: 4–5 weeks 
Potential: Opportunity to develop into a permanent Group FC/HOF level role
Day Rate - Negotiable 

An established manufacturing business is looking for an experienced, hands-on finance professional to come in initially on a project basis to review and strengthen its finance function.

The business is going through a period of change and growth, and needs someone who can quickly get under the skin of the current finance set-up, identify where improvements are needed and put stronger processes and controls in place.

The initial project will focus on:

• Reviewing the current finance function, processes and reporting
• Supporting the implementation of a new accounting system
• Improving controls, processes and overall financial discipline
• Reviewing the quality and accuracy of management information
• Working closely with the existing finance team to ensure new processes are properly embedded
• Identifying any gaps within the current structure and recommending improvements
• Providing senior-level financial support and insight to the wider business

They’re looking for someone who is very hands-on and comfortable getting into the detail, but who also has the experience and gravitas to operate at FC/FD level and work closely with the senior leadership team.

The initial requirement is expected to be around 4–5 weeks, predominantly on site in Greenford, but there is a genuine opportunity for this to develop into a longer-term/permanent Group Financial Controller / Head of Finance level position as the business continues to grow.
