This isnโ€™t a โ€œfinance business partnerโ€ role with 14 stakeholders and zero authority.

Itโ€™s a proper, hands-on finance role in a profitable, founder-led business where:

  • The numbers actually matter
  • Decisions get made quickly
  • Youโ€™re trusted to get on with it

Youโ€™ll be working between two simple, high-performing businesses with strong recurring income, clean cost bases, and ambitious growth plans. Both are already highly profitable. They need someone to own the finance, tighten controls, and give them absolute confidence in the data.

The role:

Youโ€™ll report directly to the owner (who acts as Finance Director), meaning short reporting lines, fast decisions, and zero politics.

What you’ll actually do:

  • Run day-to-day accounting and transactional finance
  • Own membership / recurring income data and direct debits
  • Track overheads and key cost drivers
  • Prepare monthly management accounts and submitting to the Finance Director for review (Xero + Excel)
  • Monitor cash flow and banking controls
  • Pull together operational data (staff hours, utilities, etc.) to support margin protection
  • Keep processes clean, consistent, and reliable

Payroll is outsourced. Systems are already in place. Youโ€™re improving and owning, not firefighting.

  • Part Qualified or QBE
  • Youโ€™re comfortable working independently
  • You like being trusted rather than micromanaged
  • You care about data accuracy and commercial reality
  • You donโ€™t need a big team or fancy title to do your best work

  • ยฃ30,000โ€“ยฃ40,000 FTE (pro-rata for part-time โ€“ part and full time hours considered)
  • Real autonomy and visibility
  • A profitable business with clear growth plans
  • Free gym membership
  • Discounts on products/services
  • Quarterly bonus linked to customer experience

This role will grow as the business grows. More sites = more responsibility. Possibly more people under you if thatโ€™s what you want.
