Head of Rural Finance

6 days ago


Huntingdon, United Kingdom Oakhill Recruitment Ltd Full time

Head of Rural Finance - Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire - £60,000 - 70,000
Do you, or a member of your family, drive a Land Rover Defender?
Have you heard of Felpersham, Grey Gables and Lower Loxley?
Do you own more than one Tattersall shirt?
Can you name a Countryfile presenter (not including John Craven)?
Ever milked a cow/ridden a horse/fixed a barbed wire fence?
Have you been to the East of England Showground recently?
Yes? Great. With a few countryside connections, this senior role will be a breath of fresh air. You'd be part of a Top-20 firm, working exclusively with agricultural clients and with a lot more autonomy.
It's an ideal step forward for you if you're a Chartered Accountant who's already in the rural sector. Or perhaps the idea of working with farmers and their families instead of faceless businesses could lure you back into practice?
Either way, you won't be plunged in at the deep end. First, there's a handover period - a few months to learn the ropes from the current Head of Rural Team.
As you can probably imagine, working with farmers isn't always easy. Their time is valuable. Sometimes, they'd rather be hosing down the cow shed than counting beans with you.
But, if you have the personality and patience to win their respect, you'll find it's really rewarding. You'll be using all of your knowledge to help so many different types of businesses to succeed.
You'll meet high net worth individuals with King Lear-esque IHT issues; you'll need to know your APR from your BPR. Agritech start-ups looking to diversify their income streams. You'll handle restructures, demergers; complex capex and fixed asset questions
- when was the last time one of your clients bought a 500-horsepower combine harvester worth £300K?
Relationship-building skills aside, we're looking for ACA/ACCA, senior-level technical experience (both strategic and operational) and the ability to manage and motivate other team members - they'll take care of day-to-day accounts, billing and forecasting.
All in all, it's a chance to become a respected part of local farming community and to be seen as an expert in your field. Even if that occasionally means you're standing in one.
