Are you a proactive finance professional looking for a role that blends financial analysis, budgeting, and team leadership with strategic influence? HMPS, a market leader in automation machinery, is seeking a talented Finance Manager to join our dedicated Finance team, reporting to our CFO. In this role, you'll have a direct impact on HMPS's growth and operational success by driving key financial processes, empowering our teams, and championing financial excellence.
About the Role As our Finance Manager, you'll be pivotal in overseeing month-end financial reporting, budget preparation, and data-driven financial analysis across our divisions, especially focusing on HMPS Group Service and Spare Parts. You'll work closely with key stakeholders to set and monitor divisional budgets, ensuring they align with our group's financial objectives. You'll also lead a team of Financial Accountants and Accounts Officers, fostering a collaborative environment while guiding their growth and supporting their contributions to our financial success.
Your strategic insights will contribute directly to decision-making across our divisions, and your work will underpin our profitability, inventory accuracy, and cash flow forecasting. A keen focus on stakeholder communication and confidentiality is essential in this position.
Key Responsibilities Drive Month-End Excellence: Lead and deliver diligent, accurate financial reporting and analysis to inform strategic decisions. Budget Management: Collaborate with divisional heads to prepare and communicate budgets that support HMPS's financial objectives. Team Leadership: Mentor and develop finance team members, fostering a culture of growth and continuous improvement. Efficiency Reporting: Provide clear metrics on service technician efficiency to ensure optimal performance. Inventory and Profitability Analysis: Oversee stock-taking and profitability assessments of spare parts operations. Financial Forecasting: Manage cash flow forecasting, helping secure HMPS's financial health. Nice-to-Have Skills While not essential, knowledge of business contracts — including reviewing and negotiating terms and drafting legal documents — would be highly valued in this role. This skill set will help support the CFO and divisional leads in securing favourable contract terms that align with HMPS's financial and operational goals.
