Axon Moore are currently partnering with an expanding group as they look to integrate a new acquisition

Your role is number 1 in finance – reporting to the MD and managing all aspects of the integration as well as the day to day / month to month reporting and control for the group.

There is a lot to get stuck into and the directors are looking for a confident, experienced and enthusiastic individual who can approach the challenge with a calm and measured stance.

It’s a business with high volumes of data and strong IT literacy / excellent analytical skills is vital.

You’ll be managing a talented team through a period of change and the ability to coach, lead and encourage others will be really helpful. It’s a balance of hands on accounting coupled with presentation and influence in the boardroom – you need to be comfortable with both.

  • Previous experience as Head of Finance within a business of similar size ideally (£20m – £50m turnover)
  • Great interpersonal skills and ability to coach / lead others in a calm and supportive manner
  • Proven background in system integration and ERP systems
  • Ability to present financial information to a board senior audience (of non finance stakeholders)
  • ACCA, ACA or CIMA
  • Evidence of supporting businesses through change
