Job Description

Command the Chaos: Become the Financial Manager Who Keeps Production Running Smoothly
Company and In a fast-moving industrial and production environment where pressure is a constant and precision is non-negotiable, we're looking for a Financial Manager who thrives in the thick of operations - someone who isn't intimidated by stock complexity, tough conversations, or rolling up their sleeves to get things done.
This organisation needs a strong, grounded FM with backbone, grit, and the technical skill to match. You'll take the reins of a full financial function while partnering closely with operations to keep the business sharp, compliant, and financially fit. If you're the kind of leader who brings order to chaos, clarity to numbers, and confidence to decision-making - you'll feel right at home here.
Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the full financial function with confidence and ownership
  • Oversee stock management end-to-end - including reconciliations, valuation, controls, and investigation of discrepancies
  • Produce accurate monthly management accounts, reporting packs, and commentary
  • Strengthen internal controls across finance and operations
  • Drive cost discipline, margin visibility, and continuous improvement
  • Partner with operational teams on budgeting, forecasting, and financial performance
  • Implement processes that support scale, efficiency, and business continuity
  • Manage audits, compliance, and governance requirements
  • Lead, mentor, and develop finance team members
Job Experience and Skills Required
  • BCom degree (with completed articles being highly beneficial)
  • 3+ years' experience in a Financial Manager role
  • Exposure to industrial, manufacturing, or production environments
  • Strong stock experience - this is a non-negotiable
  • Confident personality with the ability to challenge, influence, and drive accountability
  • Solid understanding of the full finance function (GL to FS)
  • Advanced Excel and ERP proficiency
  • High attention to detail with the ability to perform under pressure
