Job Description
Full job description
This Finance Manager job in Livingston is an excellent opportunity for a skilled finance professional operating as a Finance Manager or Management Accountant to join the business as it goes through a period of change. The company is the leading player in its market, having enjoyed consistent and steady growth over the last three years. With a strong Senior Management team and an impressive order book, the company is in an excellent place to continue to outpace its rivals in what is a competitive field.
As Finance Manager, you will be responsible for managing the day to day financial operations of the business. Specifically, your duties will include, but not be limited to:
Support the monthly management accounts production and review process
Assist with budgeting and forecasting
Management of the year-end close process, including liaising with external advisors as necessary
Prepare and post accruals and prepayment journals
Complete monthly bank reconciliations
Support the monthly payroll process, including the collation of information such as calculations for overtime, allowances and salary adjustments
Administer the company pension scheme and support the finance team with payroll related inputs during the annual external audit
Run month-end reports for senior management
Oversee junior staff
To be successful, it is anticipated that you will have demonstrable experience aligned with the above, gained in a fast-moving business. Professional qualifications such as AAT or ACCA are a "nice to have" but by no means essential. As well as having a good grasp of the basics, the Finance Manager will be expected to have good communication and influencing skills, as you will spend a reasonable amount of time collaborating with stakeholders across the business. As Finance Manager, you will be expected to be competent in Excel and if you have experience of Power BI, that would be advantageous.
Crucially, candidates who have experience of working in a business going through a significant "change management" process will be at an advantage, as will candidates who are either on a short notice period or are immediately available.
The role is offered on a hybrid basis (3 days in the office and 2 from home) and comes with a suite of other benefits. If this role is of interest, please get in touch at your earliest convenience as the client is looking to make the right hire as soon as possible.
