The role:
This is a retained part time position: 4 days per month to begin with, structured as one day a week or two blocks of two days, your choice. As the business grows the days grow with it, and the right person becomes our Head of Finance. We would rather pay a brilliant person for 4 days than an average one for 20.
What you will own each month
Weekly bank reconciliation: QuickBooks Online against Starling and Stripe. Nothing unallocated.
Month end: aged debtors against each customer's real terms, customer statements, engineer profit share verification, supplier invoices checked against orders.
Monthly management pack: P&L, cash, revenue by customer, gross margin by job type, overdue debtors, and a plain English note on what changed and what I should do about it.
The receivables system: you own the process and the tracker; our operations VA sends routine reminders under your rules. You step in on anything over 14 days overdue or disputed.
Controls: you catch duplicate invoices, VAT errors, parts paid twice, engineers paid on unpaid jobs, before they cost us money.
Improvement: every month the process should be a little better than the one you inherited.
