Job Type: Permanent, FullTime

Salary: £70,000 - £80,000 per annum

Financial Controller | Keighley | Up to £80,000 + benefits 4-day week (Mon-Thurs)

This role exists because the business needs a proper number two in finance, someone who can run the UK function day to day, keep things tight, and work closely with operations without layers in the way.

It's a lean manufacturing environment. You'll be visible, hands-on, and involved in how the business actually runs, not sat behind process.

  • Owning monthly management accounts and year-end statutory reporting
  • Overseeing governance, compliance, payroll and pensions
  • Managing intercompany activity with the European parent
  • Acting as finance lead for the UK site
  • Supporting and challenging operational teams with useful, grounded insight
  • Line managing two staff

Around 70% of the role is core finance, with some company secretarial responsibility alongside it.

What they're looking for

  • Fully qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA)
  • Comfortable in a hands-on, site-based role
  • Confident dealing with senior stakeholders, including group in Europe
  • Manufacturing experience helpful, but not essential
  • Able to hold your ground and explain things clearly when needed

What you get

  • £70,000 - £80,000 (including car allowance)
  • 4-day working week (38 hours, Monday to Thursday)
  • Predominantly site-based, with some flexibility when needed
  • Private medical, life assurance, group income protection
  • Annual salary review

It's a straightforward, open environment where people tend to settle in quickly. You'll have real ownership and the backing to do the job properly.
