Financial Controller
Financial Controller - Manufacturing (18-Month FTC)
North West | Up to £90,000 + 25% Bonus + Company Car
Are you a driven, commercially astute Financial Controller looking for a role where you can genuinely influence business performance?
We're partnering with a market-leading manufacturing business to appoint a standout finance leader into a pivotal site-based role. This is a fantastic opportunity to step into a high-profile position on the senior leadership team, where you'll shape decision-making, drive performance, and leave a lasting impact.
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn't just a reporting role - it's a true business partnering opportunity. You'll be at the heart of operations, influencing strategy, challenging performance, and helping to drive profitability in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
With full ownership of the finance function on site, you'll have the autonomy to implement improvements, enhance controls, and build a best-in-class finance operation.
What You'll Be Doing
- Taking full ownership of the site finance function, leading from the front
- Delivering high-quality, insightful reporting that drives decision-making
- Partnering with senior stakeholders across operations and leadership
- Leading budgeting, forecasting, and performance tracking
- Embedding strong financial controls and ensuring audit readiness
- Ensuring robust SOX compliance, maintaining strong internal controls, and driving audit readiness
- Driving cost control, efficiency, and continuous improvement initiatives
- Managing and developing a high-performing finance team
- Influencing strategic decisions and supporting long-term growth
- Fully qualified accountant (CIMA / ACCA / ACA) - essential
- Proven experience within a manufacturing environment
- Strong SAP experience is key
- A confident leader who can influence at senior level
- Strong technical grounding combined with commercial insight
- Experience managing and developing finance teams
- 4 days per week on site
- 1 day working from home
If you're looking for a role where you can step up, take ownership, and make a real difference, this is a brilliant opportunity to join a forward-thinking organisation at a key moment.
