Support Plc reporting including interim/full-year results, RNS statements, and investor presentations
Work closely with the Commercial FD and FC to align financial strategy and statutory compliance
Collaborate with departments to prepare strategic plans and provide financial support on business cases
Drive continuous improvement of financial planning tools, processes, and reporting frameworks
What We’re Looking For
Qualified accountant (ACCA, ACA, CIMA, or equivalent)
Strong financial modelling and Excel expertise (advanced level)

Highly analytical with a hands-on approach and strong attention to detail
Collaborative, proactive, and able to work independently
Comfortable with occasional travel to sites across England & Wales
What You’ll Get in Return
Competitive salary with annual review
Hybrid working model and flexibility
Opportunity to work directly with executive leadership
A values-led, mission-driven company with a supportive culture
