How you’ll power our business as a Finance Development Manager

  • Reporting to the Finance Director, the individual in this role will provide additional bandwidth to the existing finance management team, supporting with a variety of workstreams and leading on projects across the group from a finance perspective. This will be with the overarching aim of helping the group to navigate through a period of growth in its existing core business, and from the new capabilities that the acquisitions provide. The role will require the individual to consistently strive for improvements across all areas of financial management, driving profitability and return on capital employed forward.
  • To be successful in this role, the individual must work closely with the other finance department leaders and their teams, in order to understand the risks, challenges and opportunities across the department and the wider business, pro-actively supporting in driving those improvements. We are looking for a hands on individual that has a track record of operating with a continuous improvement mindset, delivering positive change to people and processes.

We’re also developing our offering for technologies such as heat pumps and solar panels, beginning to help our customers reduce their energy consumption and evolving new bio-fuels and renewable gases.
