About Our Client



Make a Real ImpactThis is an opportunity to join a business that is helping shape the future of healthcare. Every process you support and every financial insight you help maintain contributes to a company making a genuine difference to patient outcomes worldwide.

Work Directly with Senior LeadershipReporting directly to the CFO, you'll enjoy a level of exposure and influence rarely found in traditional finance manager roles. Your ideas, expertise and input will be valued, giving you the opportunity to help shape the future development of the finance function.

Job Description



This is far more than a traditional Accounts position.

You'll become a key member of a growing business where finance sits at the heart of operational success. Working closely with the CFO and external accounting partners, you'll take ownership of day-to-day finance activities while contributing to the continual improvement of processes and controls.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in maintaining accurate financial information that supports effective decision-making.

You'll gain exposure to a broad range of finance responsibilities, making this an excellent role for someone who enjoys being involved across the full finance function rather than being restricted to a narrow area of responsibility.

You'll be involved in:

  • Managing daily bookkeeping activities through Xero
  • Processing customer and supplier invoices, cash postings and journals
  • Managing supplier invoices through Dext and ApprovalMax
  • Ensuring invoices are accurately coded and allocated
  • Supporting supplier payment runs and maintaining approval processes
  • Managing and processing employee expenses
  • Supporting payroll activities alongside external payroll providers
  • Assisting month-end and year-end financial close processes
  • Supporting audit requirements and compliance activities
  • Helping improve finance processes as the business continues to grow
  • Acting as a key point of contact for customer, supplier and employee finance queries



This is an opportunity to become a trusted member of the team, with visibility across multiple areas of the business and the chance to influence how the finance function evolves.

The Successful Applicant



We're looking for someone who combines strong technical accounting knowledge with a proactive and solutions-focused approach.

You'll be a detail-oriented finance professional who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

Essential Experience & Skills

  • A minimum of 5 years' experience in a similar finance or accounts role
  • Strong working knowledge of Xero or similar cloud-based accounting software
  • Good understanding of:
    • Purchase Orders
    • Customer and supplier invoicing
    • Bank reconciliations and payments
    • VAT
    • Payroll processes
    • Journal entries
  • Experience supporting month-end close activities
  • Knowledge of foreign exchange transactions
  • Excellent organisational and administrative skills

  • A positive, professional and solution-focused attitude

What's on Offer

✅ Competitive salary of £30,000 - £35,000 pro rata, depending on experience
24-hour working week offering genuine flexibility and strong work-life balance
✅ Opportunity to work directly with and learn from an experienced CFO
✅ Broad exposure across a growing finance function
✅ Varied and engaging workload with real responsibility
