Head of Finance

Not your typical Head of Finance role….... This is a build, shape and elevate opportunity.

The HBP Group, a £14m, 100+ employee tech-led business, is looking for a hands-on, forward-thinking Head of Finance to step into a newly created role and take the function to the next level. You’ll be joining a business with real heritage (founded in 1991), strong leadership, and ambitious growth plans, including future M&A.

Why this role stands out

• A genuine step into senior leadership
• Huge scope to shape reporting, systems and strategy
• Direct exposure to the board + mentorship from an experienced Fractional CFO
• A business that truly lives its values (not just talks about them)

And importantly… this is a role where you’ll do and influence — not just review.

What you’ll be doing

This is a proper hands-on leadership role:

• Owning the finance function end-to-end
• Producing and improving monthly reporting
• Building stronger controls, processes and audit readiness
• Developing a brilliant, loyal finance team
• Driving better use of Sage Intacct and automation
• Introducing clear divisional reporting and insight
• Identifying efficiencies, savings and commercial opportunities
• Supporting strategic growth, including potential acquisitions

What we’re looking for

• Fully qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA)
• Proven leadership experience — someone who can develop and inspire a team
• A team player who fits a values-led culture
• Comfortable being hands-on and in the detail
• A strategic thinker who brings ideas and challenge
• Someone curious, ambitious and keen to grow with the business

The culture (this bit matters)

Be Kind | Show Respect | Be Self-Aware | Be Helpful | Be Trustworthy | Show Ownership

It’s a down-to-earth, supportive environment where people stay, grow and enjoy working together.

What’s on offer

• £65–70k salary
• 36 days holiday including bank holidays
• Strong pension + enhanced family leave
• Tailored development plans
• Free lunches, social events + on-site parking
• Flexibility around core hours

If you want to step into a role where you can shape the function, influence the future and grow as a leader — this one’s worth a conversation.
