Finance Manager - Modelling & Projects
Perm
UK-Based - Remote
We're delighted to be exclusively partnering with LearnPro Group to recruit a Finance Manager to join their growing, PE-backed technology business.
This is not a traditional Finance Manager role.
If you're looking for a role focused primarily on month-end reporting, managing a finance team and producing accounts, this probably isn't the opportunity for you.
Instead, this role sits at the heart of a fast-growing business where you'll combine financial modelling, finance transformation and project delivery, helping support growth, acquisitions and strategic decision-making across the Group.
You’ll inherit and develop existing Excel-based financial models covering forecasting, budgeting, business planning and commercial scenario analysis, with the ability to build new models where needed. Alongside this, you’ll lead finance-led projects including NetSuite integration for acquired businesses, timesheet/resource tracking implementation, HubSpot and NetSuite integration, data reconciliation and wider process improvement initiatives.
What makes this opportunity particularly exciting is the exposure you'll gain to a business that is actively growing through acquisition, with potential for further M&A activity already on the horizon.
We're looking for someone who enjoys getting stuck in. A doer.
Someone comfortable rolling their sleeves up, driving projects forward and working across the business to get things done. You'll need to be equally comfortable building financial models as you are speaking to stakeholders across Operations, Sales and Senior Leadership teams.
The ideal person will come from an SME or PE-backed environment and understand the realities of working in a fast-paced business where priorities can change quickly.
Required experience:
- Strong financial modelling experience, including forecasting, budgeting, scenario planning and commercial analysis.
- Experience leading finance projects such as systems implementations, ERP integrations, process improvements or acquisition integration activity.
- Expert Excel skills and the ability to build, adapt and maintain complex financial models.
- Strong stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to work across Finance, Operations, Sales and Senior Leadership teams, communicating effectively with non-technical audiences.
- Experience within a growing SME, technology, software or PE-backed environment where agility and pace are essential.
- Are comfortable working with ambiguity and changing priorities.
- Can see the bigger picture without getting lost in unnecessary detail.
- Take ownership and initiative rather than waiting for direction.
You’ll join a collaborative and supportive team led by a Finance Director who believes in giving people autonomy, trusting them to do their jobs and encouraging them to bring ideas and improvements to the table.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants visibility, ownership and the chance to make a genuine impact within a growing business.
