Reasoning

Why it fits

  • The candidate has extensive experience as a Financial Controller and Finance Manager, matching the job title closely.
  • Strong background in group financial reporting, consolidation, treasury, and financial control aligns well with job tasks.
  • Candidate holds ICAEW certification, which is equivalent to ACA/ACCA/CIMA required by the job.
  • Experience managing statutory accounts, audits, and cash flow forecasting is directly relevant.
  • Candidate is located in the UK and open to hybrid work modes, matching the job location and work mode.

Watch-outs

  • The candidate's recent industries (travel, agrochemical, oil and gas) differ from the job's food and beverage manufacturing sector, which may affect domain fit.
  • The job requires experience with Dynamics 365 ERP, which the candidate does not explicitly list.
  • The job requires 3 years relevant experience in this role; candidate has senior experience but some roles are older or interim, so recent direct experience may be less than ideal.
  • The job is hybrid in Manchester, while the candidate is based in Redhill, which is a significant distance and may reduce practical fit despite hybrid work mode.
