This is a pivotal hire and a key part of the long-term finance leadership succession plan. The business operates a multi-site dealership network across Greater London and the Home Counties. Despite its scale, it maintains a hands-on, entrepreneurial culture, with a lean leadership structure and fast decision-making. This is not a business-as-usual role.

  • Driving improvements to month-end close, reporting quality and timelines
  • Strengthening cash flow forecasting and working capital management
  • Rebuilding relationships between Finance and operational teams
  • Providing clear, commercially focused insight to senior stakeholders
  • Improving legacy processes and shifting mindsets towards growth
  • Acting as deputy to the CFO and supporting group-wide initiatives

Requirements:

  • ACA qualified (audit background preferred), ACCA / CIMA also considered
  • Proven experience leading sizeable finance teams (10 people +)
  • Background in a high-volume, highly transactional environment
  • Strong ownership of management reporting and financial control
  • Excellent cash flow and working capital experience
  • Comfortable working with complex data across multiple systems
  • Exposure to retail or stock-intensive environments beneficial
  • A strong communicator who can challenge, influence and build trust
