You'll also present results directly to divisional MDs, so this suits someone who's comfortable explaining numbers to non-finance stakeholders as well as producing them.Alongside the accounts side, there's a genuine treasury dimension: weekly and rolling 13-week cashflow forecasting, day-to-day cash movement decisions, payment approvals, and working capital reporting. You'll manage a treasury accountant and pick up their duties in their absence, so some comfort with (or appetite to learn) cash management is important.There's also a foreign currency element, given the group's overseas subsidiaries, plus involvement in year-end statutory reporting and group consolidation alongside the Financial Controller.What we're looking for:<ul class="[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"><li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Qualified accountant (ACCA or CIMA)</li><li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Solid experience at Finance Manager level or above, ideally within a group structure with multiple entities or divisions</li><li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Comfortable with consolidation adjustments and intercompany eliminations</li><li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Some exposure to cash forecasting/treasury would be a strong plus, though not essential</li><li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Experience managing and developing a team</li><li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Strong Excel skills; exposure to SQL or Power BI would help but isn't a dealbreaker</li></ul>This is a broad, hands-on senior role for someone who wants both the technical accounts discipline and the commercial visibility of working closely with the CFO and divisional leadership.Robert Half Ltd acts as an employment business for temporary positions and an employment agency for permanent positions.
