Finance Transformation and Reporting Manager

Description

We are seeking a mid-career Finance Transformation and Reporting Manager to lead finance reporting improvements, coordinate cross-functional transformation activity, and maintain reliable management information. Reporting directly to the Finance Director, you will manage and coach a dedicated team of four analysts and accountants. In this pivotal role, you will oversee the production of monthly performance packs and reconciliations, ensuring high quality standards and timely delivery. You will actively identify reporting process gaps and implement practical controls and automation to drive sustained process improvements. Working collaboratively across the organization, you will coordinate system-change requirements with finance, IT, and business unit leaders. You will also be responsible for managing team priorities and capability development to foster strong team ownership. Additionally, you will present variances, key assumptions, and exceptions clearly to senior stakeholders to build and maintain stakeholder confidence. A critical aspect of this position involves applying strong financial judgment and control awareness to challenge unsupported numbers, such as optimistic forecast adjustments without supporting evidence, and escalate material control weaknesses. Success in this role will be measured by more timely and reliable management reporting, robust internal controls, and effective people leadership.

  • Experience coordinating cross-functional transformation activities and gathering system-change requirements across finance, IT, and business units.
  • Advanced analytical reasoning skills with the ability to analyze variances, evaluate key assumptions, and identify reporting exceptions.
  • Strong financial judgment and control awareness, including experience identifying and escalating material control weaknesses.
  • Excellent communication skills with proven ability to present complex financial information clearly to senior stakeholders and the Finance Director.
  • Demonstrated professional integrity in challenging unsupported financial numbers and unsubstantiated forecast adjustments.

Desirable

  • Experience driving sustained process improvements within a changing finance environment.
  • Proven capability in developing team quality standards and structured capability development plans.
