Finance Manager

Are you a hands-on finance professional ready to step into a key leadership role within a fast-scaling, purpose-driven group of brands? We're partnering with an ambitious and impact-led consumer business that's redefining the way sustainable products reach global markets.

This is your chance to join a portfolio of globally recognised, mission-driven brands - from premium coffee and oat milk to innovative reusable lifestyle products - all under one exciting umbrella backed by a major European impact investor.

The Role

As Finance Manager, you'll report to the CFO and take full ownership of operational finance across multiple UK and international entities. You'll lead a small team, ensure robust financial controls and compliance, and play a crucial role in enabling the business to scale sustainably.

This is a hands-on role ideal for someone with a solid grounding in operational finance, an eye for process improvement, and the ambition to make a real impact in a values-driven environment.

What You'll Be Doing

• Own month-end close, group reporting, VAT/BAS/GST compliance, and financial statement preparation.

• Manage a team of 3 across the UK, ensuring smooth AR/AP, payroll, and cashflow operations.

• Drive improvements in financial systems, reporting accuracy, and process efficiency.

• Oversee audits, FX management, and multi-entity reconciliations.

• Act as a business partner to senior leadership, providing actionable financial insights.

What We're Looking For

• Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with experience in a fast-paced, consumer-facing business.

• Strong understanding of UK GAAP and international accounting compliance.

• Proven experience managing end-to-end finance operations across multiple entities.

• A proactive leader who enjoys building high-performing teams and improving processes.

Why Join?

• Join a mission-led business that blends purpose with profit.

• Be part of a collaborative, entrepreneurial, and high-performing team.

• Real responsibility from day one - with the opportunity to shape the finance function of a growing business.
