Are you a qualified Finance Manager who enjoys owning month-end from start to finish?
Do you want a role where you can take responsibility, improve processes and influence performance?

We are recruiting a Finance Manager to join a growing, well-established manufacturing business in North Nottinghamshire. The organisation is going through a significant period of finance transformation, making this an exciting time to come on board.
This position has been reshaped to focus purely on management and financial accounting, creating genuine ownership and progression opportunity.

The Role
Reporting to the Financial Controller, you will take full responsibility for management accounts, financial accounting and reporting integrity. You’ll lead month-end, support budgeting and forecasting cycles, and ensure strong financial controls are embedded across the function.

Operating within a live manufacturing environment, you’ll work closely with operational teams to understand cost drivers, inventory and plant performance. The department is evolving from manual, reactive processes to a more structured and value-adding model — and you’ll play a key role in that journey.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and own the full month-end process
• Produce accurate management accounts with clear variance analysis
• Drive annual budgets and rolling forecasts
• Strengthen balance sheet integrity and financial controls
• Support statutory reporting and audit processes
• Partner with operational stakeholders on cost and inventory management
• Identify process improvements and reduce inefficiencies

About You

• ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified
• Strong management and financial accounting experience
• Previous manufacturing or plant experience preferred
• Experience within a sizeable standalone business
• Proactive, hands-on and comfortable working in a changing environment
• Strong analytical skills with confidence to influence stakeholders

This is an excellent opportunity for a driven Finance Manager seeking visibility, ownership and the chance to make a meaningful impact within a transforming manufacturing business.
