    Description

    We are seeking a dynamic and enthusiastic Finance Manager to lead and manage our busy Finance Teams. You will have relevant finance and business experience, and you will directly manage the Accounts Payable and Income Collection teams, while contributing to process improvements within the Accounts Receivable (Billing) function.

    You will be familiar with accounting software, preferably SAGE. You will be an effective communicator with excellent data management skills and numeracy, with particular proficiency in the use of Excel.

    Ideally, you will have a relevant professional qualification (such as AAT or higher). Experience gained in a social care-related organisation or a large business/charity with multiple cost centres and varied income streams is desirable.

    The role will involve:

    •Leading and managing staff teams to achieve great results

    •Inducting and coaching staff

    •Planning, prioritising and co-ordinating workload

    •Meeting month-end and year-end deadlines

    •Developing and standardising efficient and effective processes

    •Reviewing accounts and identifying invoicing and payment issues

    •Producing reports and data for the Executive Team

    •Investigation and resolution of complex accounts

    This is a senior position within our busy, friendly Head Office Finance Department. A flexible and responsive approach is required, as you may need to assist with other priority tasks within our finance function and you will have the opportunity to deputise for senior colleagues. A strong work ethic and commitment to our values and charitable aims is essential.

    There will be opportunities for further professional training for the successful candidate, to be discussed and agreed upon successful completion of the probationary period.

    The role is based in our pleasant offices in Stockport, readily accessible on public transport.

    Applicants seeking part time and flexible hours (minimum of 30 hours per week) are encouraged.
