• Have experience in a senior finance role within an SME environment
• Bring exposure to manufacturing and/or international trading (highly desirable)
• Have strong Excel and systems skills
• Be proactive, collaborative, and comfortable challenging stakeholders

• Senior Leadership Team exposure and influence
• Opportunity to shape processes and strategy
