Job description

Financial Controller

Location: West Bromwich

Salary: £85,000–£95,000 (DOE)

Halliday Marx have embarked on a Retained Assignment to hire an exceptional Financial Controller to join a highly ambitious and rapidly scaling Manufacturing business.

Looking to join a business at a pivotal stage of growth and transformation?

Following a merger the company is expected to treble in size within 2-3 years through both organic growth and strategic acquisition. This is a hands-on leadership role for an experienced finance professional ready to take genuine ownership of the day-to-day finance function, with the commercial capability and ambition to grow into a Finance Director as the group scales.


The Opportunity:

Reporting to the Managing Director and working alongside the CFO

  • The Financial Controller will have full ownership of the operational finance function across the group, overseeing two accounts team members.
  • Play a key role in ERP optimisation, finance process improvement, reporting improvements, and business integration.
  • Work in a company where finance is a genuine strategic partner to growth.


Key Responsibilities

  • Full ownership of day-to-day finance
  • Accurate and timely monthly management information
  • Cash flow forecasting, working capital management and financial planning
  • Driving ERP consolidation and finance process improvement
  • Leading automation initiatives and identifying opportunities to leverage AI in a modern finance and accounting tech stack
  • Genuine business partnering with operational, engineering and commercial teams
  • Managing and developing finance and accounts staff
  • Supporting the Managing Director with tailored management information
  • Strengthening controls and finance infrastructure as the group scales


Manufacturing & Operational Finance:

A strong manufacturing or engineering background is desirable. The successful candidate will have hands-on experience of:

  • WIP reporting and controls
  • Bills of materials, manufacturing costing and margin analysis
  • Sales order flow through ERP systems
  • Inventory and stock reporting
  • Multi-site operational finance.

You will be equally comfortable on the shop floor and in the boardroom and powerful communication skills are highly desirable.


The Candidate:

  • You are likely an experienced Financial Controller or Finance Manager from a manufacturing or engineering environment
  • Technically strong across reporting, forecasting and controls, and commercially minded.
  • You will be experienced with ERP systems — ideally Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central — and a proven driver of automation and process improvement.
  • Ambition to develop, learn and progress to Finance Director as principal commercial lead within the business is desirable.


Location & Working Pattern:
The role is based in West Bromwich with occasional travel between this and other locations. One to two remote working days per week are available but preference is for a leadership candidate that likes to be surrounded by their team and involved in day to day decisions.
