Finance Manager

We’re supporting a well-established manufacturing business in the East Lancashire area as they look to appoint a commercially minded Finance Manager due to retirement. This isn’t a direct people-management role. This isn’t just a desk-based role — you’ll be a key partner to operational teams, occasionally (once a month maximum) visiting additional sites to support month-end processes, improve reporting accuracy, and provide meaningful financial insight. As Finance Manager, you will be responsible for overseeing the financial operations of a manufacturing company, ensuring accurate financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, and compliance with financial regulations. This role involves the individual working as part of a team, providing strategic financial guidance to the senior management team, monitoring company performance, and supporting cost control initiatives to drive profitability and operational efficiency.
