Job description

ABOUT OUR CLIENT & THE ROLE

Our client is a rapidly growing technology business operating within the healthcare sector. Following changes across the finance leadership team, they are creating a broader Finance Team Lead position to sit directly underneath the Head of Finance and lead the financial operations and reporting function. You will lead a team of four across financial accounting, revenue, AP and AR, while working closely with an established FP&A function.

The opportunity will suit someone who likes getting into the detail, working out what isn't working and actually fixing it. You'll have significant exposure to senior leadership and the opportunity to build a finance function capable of supporting the next stage of the business's growth.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Take ownership of the day-to-day financial operations and reporting function.
  • Lead, coach and develop a team across financial accounting, revenue, Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable.
  • Oversee month-end reporting, reconciliations and the integrity of financial information.
  • Review existing finance processes, identify weaknesses and implement practical improvements.
  • Strengthen controls, reporting and processes as transaction volumes increase with business growth.
  • Work closely with the Head of Finance to continue improving the capability and structure of the finance function.
  • Drive process improvement and automation rather than accepting inefficient legacy processes.
  • Maintain oversight across revenue accounting, debtors, creditors and broader financial operations.
  • Work closely with the FP&A team and wider business to ensure accurate and useful financial information.
  • Build capability and accountability across the team while remaining prepared to get into the detail yourself.
  • Work directly with senior leadership on financial and operational matters as required.

SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

  • Strong technical accounting background with experience across financial reporting and financial operations.
  • Commercial/industry finance experience, ideally within a growing or changing organisation.
  • Previous experience leading, coaching or developing accounting staff.
  • Genuine examples of identifying finance problems, developing solutions and implementing the change yourself.
  • Experience improving processes, controls, reporting or systems within a finance function.
  • Exposure to finance transformation or a well-developed finance environment that has given you a clear understanding of what good looks like.
  • Comfortable remaining hands-on while taking broader ownership of a finance function.
  • Able to operate independently and make decisions without needing constant escalation.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills and confidence dealing directly with senior executives.
  • Able to prioritise effectively in a fast-moving environment with significant competing demands.
