This is a high-level Financial Leadership role for a UK-based e-commerce business scaling from £5.02M to £9M turnover. We require a professional with a background in formal accounting and audit-level precision.
About the Role
As our Finance Manager, you will be the "Financial North Star" for Casa Maria Designs. You will work directly with the CEO to protect our £1 million profit goal for 2026. You will take the lead on everything from daily bookkeeping "in the weeds" to high-level strategic forecasting.
This is a 100% exclusive, full-time position. We want you to be a core part of our team, collaborating daily with our Marketing and Operations managers.
Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Accountancy, Finance, or a related field is mandatory.
Certification: CPA (Certified Public Accountant) or equivalent professional certification is highly preferred.
Your Key Responsibilities
1. Daily Financial Operations (The Foundation)
• Full-Cycle Bookkeeping: Move us away from "raw data" processing to a real-time internal ledger.
• Daily Reconciliation: Manage and reconcile 500+ monthly transactions across Shopify, Amazon, and our £1.46 million cash balance.
• Cost Ownership: Track and optimize our £3.07 million Cost of Sales, including global supplier payments and shipping/logistics costs (£638k in 2025).
• Compliance Liaison: Prepare clean monthly reports for our external UK chartered accountants, Holland & Co..
• Payroll & Liabilities: Manage payroll and track our £324k+ tax and social security liabilities.
2. Strategic Growth Analysis (The Future)
• Margin Protection: Provide real-time data to our Marketing Manager to ensure our £849k advertising spend remains highly profitable.
• Inventory Strategy: Work with our Ops Manager to analyze our £365k inventory and minimize storage fees.
• Cash Flow Management: Model our cash reserves to ensure we have the liquidity needed for massive inventory scales.
• Dashboarding: Build automated reporting (Excel Macros, BigQuery, or SQL) to give the CEO a daily view of net profitability.
What We Are Looking For
• E-commerce DNA: 2+ years of experience with Shopify, and multi-channel reconciliation.
• Software Expert: High proficiency in Kashflow, Xero or QuickBooks. Knowledge of BigQuery, SQL, or advanced Excel is a major plus.
• Team Player: Someone who wants to be part of a brand, not just a contractor. You should be comfortable challenging our Marketing and Ops leads with data.
• C2 English Mastery: Excellent communication skills are required for this leadership-level role.
• UK Context: Familiarity with UK VAT and Companies Act requirements is essential.
Why Join Casa Maria Designs?
• Direct Impact: You report to the CEO and influence the strategy of a £9 million business.
• Stability: We have a strong cash position and a clear 2026 growth plan.
• Long-term Growth: We are looking for a partner to stay with us as we scale toward £11M and beyond.
What We Offer:
• Salary: $1,200 – $1,500 per month (based on experience).
• 13th Month Pay: A full month’s bonus at the end of the year.
• Work-Life Balance: You will get all Philippine National Holidays off.
• Stability: A long-term role in a profitable, scaling business with a direct line to the CEO.
