POSITION INFO:

Company and Job Description

In a fast–moving industrial and production environment where pressure is a constant and precision is non-negotiable, we’re looking for a Financial Manager who thrives in the thick of operations - someone who isn’t intimidated by stock complexity, tough conversations, or rolling up their sleeves to get things done.
This organisation needs a strong, grounded FM with backbone, grit, and the technical skill to match. You’ll take the reins of a full financial function while partnering closely with operations to keep the business sharp, compliant, and financially fit. If you’re the kind of leader who brings order to chaos, clarity to numbers, and confidence to decision-making - you’ll feel right at home here.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the full financial function with confidence and ownership
Oversee stock management end-to-end - including reconciliations, valuation, controls, and investigation of discrepancies
Produce accurate monthly management accounts, reporting packs, and commentary
Strengthen internal controls across finance and operations
Drive cost discipline, margin visibility, and continuous improvement
Partner with operational teams on budgeting, forecasting, and financial performance
Implement processes that support scale, efficiency, and business continuity
Manage audits, compliance, and governance requirements
Lead, mentor, and develop finance team members

Job Experience and Skills Required

BCom degree (with completed articles being highly beneficial)
3+ years’ experience in a Financial Manager role
Exposure to industrial, manufacturing, or production environments
Strong stock experience - this is a non-negotiable
Confident personality with the ability to challenge, influence, and drive accountability
Solid understanding of the full finance function (GL to FS)
Advanced Excel and ERP proficiency
High attention to detail with the ability to perform under pressure
