You’ll be the go\-to person for financial reporting, planning and compliance, working closely with the Directors and presenting directly to the Board.

• Lead the preparation of statutory accounts, supported by clear backup schedules.


• Prepare, update and present financial plans, budgets and forecasts.

• Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.

• A high\-impact, part\-time role with real autonomy and influence.


• A collaborative culture where trust, teamwork and results matter.


• The opportunity to work closely with senior stakeholders and shape financial strategy.


• Flexibility through flexitime and a role designed to fit around 2–3 days per week.
