**The Business**
This manufacturing business has over 130 years’ experience with billions in global revenue generated every year. Their FMCG product lines are consumed the world over and have 5 sites across the UK responsible for production and distribution across the UK. Committed to sustainability and best-in-class production, they have created a state of the art site which will be the biggest production site in the UK.
**The Role**
As an Operational Finance Assistant, you will play a key role in the analysis and reporting of production across the Northern Sites, taking full ownership of one small site and playing an integral role in the newest site referenced above. You’ll be responsible for weekly and monthly accounts, reporting on intake materials, yields, labour time (manning of lines), production volumes and packaging, analysing cost of sales vs actual and being involved in daily meetings with operational staff to discuss the reports. As well as providing administrative support during budgeting and forecasting.
The business is extremely cutting edge with its reporting, the new system will issue reports, resulting in highly detailed breakdown of each area (i.e. labour is split into multiple areas in production and references on the BOMS, as is packaging, ensuring the right quantity and substitutes are used when appropriate). All of which ensures the consumption of materials is aligned to the forecasted figure and, where not, allowing operational staff to make necessary tweaks.
You will gain a lot of exposure to senior-level people in the European business and, when comfortable to do so, be the point of contact in some meetings to answer questions regarding UK production. Hence, someone with a good level of confidence in themselves and their work is crucial.
**Specific Tasks**
- Providing meaningful and accurate reports to support operational and financial performance; ensuring it is on track.
- Looking at actual vs forecast for production volumes and investigating discrepancies
- Analyse yields and impact on Cost of Goods

- Ad hoc finance roles to support the team
**Requirements**:
- Someone with a basic knowledge of accounting to understand journal entries and weekly/monthly reporting
- Ideally someone who is AAT, part qualified or above.
- Experience working in a fast paced environment
- System savvy and numerically minded
- Strong Microsoft Excel skills
**Benefits**
- Up to £30,000
