  • Review annual rebate agreements and prepare monthly rebate provisions.
  • Produce monthly sales figures for stakeholder rebate invoicing.
  • Prepare monthly commission calculations and ensure payroll journals are posted.

  • Identify and drive improvements in internal controls and financial processes.
  • Ensure all regulatory reports are delivered within required timescales.

  • Strong initiative with excellent organisational skills and rigorous attention to detail.
  • Confident people manager able to supervise, coach and support team members.
  • Comfortable challenging the status quo and improving processes.
