Role:                Finance Manager

Salary:             up to around £60,000 plus incentive scheme

Availability:       Available to start with no more than 1 month’s notice

Location:           Brighton area with up to 4 days WFH per week

Grafton Banks Finance is exclusively representing a forward-looking and fast-growing international SME (£5-20m), in their search for an experienced and self-motivated Finance Manager. Reporting to the CEO, this role will suit an enthusiastic and personable individual who is as comfortable producing/presenting a set of monthly management accounts, as they are chasing up a payment and managing payroll.

You’ll be leading on the weekly cashflow forecasting, monthly management accounts, profitability analysis and budgeting, as well as maintaining operational finance (AP and AR). It’s worth noting that VAT and year-end statutory accounts are outsourced to a third party.  

Some of the key responsibilities:

• Maintain the systems and processes for producing the management accounts for Board Meetings
• Responsible for cashflow forecasting, profit forecast and tax returns in the US.

• Lead automation and efficiency improvements within the finance function
• Providing financial insights, identifying cost-saving opportunities, and advising on business growth.
• Ensuring the company is operating within the required frameworks in its international markets (US, predominantly)
• Managing forex exposure to minimise potential for losses, and ensuring accurate reporting on current positions
• Handle VAT returns and coordinate with external accountants for year-end.

• Creating & maintaining budgets and financial plans

The successful candidate will ideally be a Qualified Accountant, although candidates who are Finalist or QBE will also be considered. You must possess excellent management accounting experience, strong spreadsheet skills and (ideally) experience of accounting for US entities.

In return for your knowledge and experience you’ll be rewarded with a competitive salary and benefits package, along with an incentive scheme.
