Finance Manager - Listed Business

Aria Partners is delighted to be partnering with a well-established UK listed business looking to hire a Finance Manager into its London-based Finance team. It's a broad role sitting across business unit reporting, group finance, financial control and business partnering, with end to end ownership for all Finance activities for a major business unit (turnover c.£15m). You'll take the lead on month-end, work closely with senior stakeholders, and get involved in everything from IFRS reporting and statutory accounts through to budgeting, forecasting, intercompany, consolidations and year-end audit. London Finance focuses more on the high level reporting, analysis and story telling, with all nitty gritty transactional work handled by a shared service team. On top of the BAU, there's also a decent amount of change and improvement work to be involved in: tightening controls, improving reporting, making better use of technology/AI and helping simplify and standardise processes across the business. What we're looking for:

• ACA/CA or ACCA qualified - likely 2 years PQE+ level - with a strong preference for people who are ex auditors
• Strong technical accounting / IFRS knowledge
• Experience in group finance, financial reporting or financial control
• Exposure to a multinational, listed or similarly complex business - sector and industry experience is less important so long as you've worked in a larger business
• Strong month-end, statutory accounts and audit experience
• Someone confident dealing with senior stakeholders across the business
• Excellent interpersonal and business partnering skills This role would suit someone who wants a genuinely broad finance role, with the opportunity to learn, grow and develop in a corporate but sociable working environment as part of a close knit group Finance team. Salary on offer is c.£70-80k base plus bonus - hybrid working (3 days in the office).
