Finance & Office Manager

Job Description:

SME Engineering Business | Autonomous role

Looking for a role where you can truly run things - not just follow process?

We're recruiting a Finance & Office Manager for a small, well-established engineering business. This is a broad, hands-on role where you'll take ownership of finance, HR and office operations - working closely with the General Manager.

If you enjoy variety, autonomy, and being the go-to person on site - this is exactly that.

The Role:
You'll be the backbone of the business from a finance and operational perspective, managing everything from day-to-day accounts through to HR and office management.

What you'll be doing:

Finance:

• Day-to-day bookkeeping and reconciliations

• Sales ledger and credit control

• Month-end and year-end processes

• Reporting, analysis and supporting business decisions

HR:

• Payroll management

• Supporting HR processes and employee records

Office / Admin:

• Overseeing office operations and facilities management

• General administration across the site

• Keeping everything organised and running smoothly

What we're looking for:

• Experience in a similar Finance / Office Manager role within an SME

• Strong all-round finance knowledge (hands-on and analytical)

• Comfortable managing HR and admin responsibilities alongside finance

• Tech-savvy with ERP system experience (essential)

• Able to work independently with minimal supervision

• Organised, proactive and someone who takes ownership

What's in it for you?

• Autonomous role with real ownership

• Close working relationship with the General Manager

• Varied position - no two days the same

• Stable, growing engineering business

• Opportunity to influence and improve how things are done
