About Us

We’re representing a scaling tech business with circa £2M in revenue, entering an exciting phase of structured growth. As the company expands, we’re looking for a hands-on Finance Manager to take ownership of the finance function and help bring clarity, discipline, and commercial insight to the business.

This is a high-impact role in a founder-led environment where finance plays a critical part in enabling sustainable growth.

The Role

This is not a purely advisory position. You will be responsible for running the day-to-day finance engine of the business, working closely with the leadership team to ensure strong financial control, accurate reporting, and proactive cash management.

You will bring structure to a scaling organisation, improve processes, and provide practical financial insight that supports operational and strategic decision-making.

Key Responsibilities

  • Managing day-to-day finance operations, including cash flow, reconciliations, and controls
  • Owning rolling cash flow forecasting (including 13-week forecasting)
  • Managing working capital, credit control, and supplier payment prioritisation
  • Preparing monthly management accounts and performance reporting
  • Overseeing budgeting, forecasting, and scenario modelling
  • Handling invoicing, payroll, and expense management
  • Supporting project-based revenue tracking, milestone invoicing, and utilisation-based reporting
  • Improving and documenting finance processes as the business scales
  • Liaising with external accountants, advisors, and any funding partners
  • Supporting strategic decisions with clear, actionable financial insight

About You

We are particularly interested in candidates with:

  • Strong SME, professional services, consultancy, or project-based business experience
  • Deep understanding of project revenue models, uneven cash flow, milestone billing, and utilisation-driven operations
  • Direct hands-on experience managing rolling cash flow forecasting and working capital in a fast-moving environment
  • Experience operating in early-stage or scaling businesses without mature finance structures
  • A proactive, operational mindset, comfortable personally handling invoicing, debtor management, process improvements, and day-to-day finance tasks
  • Strong experience with cloud accounting systems (Xero essential)
  • Ability to build practical management reports, financial dashboards, and commercial insight for founders
  • Experience bringing structure to ambiguity and building processes from scratch
  • Comfortable working independently in a remote setup

Strongly Preferred

  • Experience with invoice finance, factoring, or working capital facilities
  • Familiarity with drawdown processes, debtor management requirements, and cash timing optimisation
  • Experience supporting founder-led growth environments
