If you’ve built your career in construction and enjoy being at the centre of decision-making — this is exactly the role most accountants look for, but rarely find.

We’re working with a high-growth, award-winning advisory business supporting construction SMEs (£2m–£12m turnover) — and they need a hands-on Fractional Finance Director who understands how these businesses actually operate.

Let’s Be Clear – This Is NOT a Practice Role*No pure reporting
*No hiding behind year-end
*No corporate layers
This is proper SME finance — fast-moving, hands-on, and commercially focused.

The Role Working 3 days per week, you’ll take ownership of a portfolio of construction SME clients and act as their trusted Finance Director.
*Deliver management accounts that drive action, not just reporting
*Lead cashflow, forecasting, and financial planning
*Present to owners, MDs, and boards
*Drive project costing, WIP, and profitability
*Challenge and influence commercial decisions
*Improve systems and processes (Xero, Fathom, Dext)
?? You’ll be in the detail and at the table — exactly where SME FDs add value.

Non-Negotiables*Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA)
*Proven experience in construction and SMEs
*Strong understanding of: *WIP / cost-to-complete
*Project costing & margins

*Track record of presenting to and influencing senior stakeholders
*Comfortable operating in a hands-on, unstructured SME environment

Who This Suits*A current or recent senior finance professional / FD / FC / No.1 finance person with experience in construction and SME’s
*Someone who enjoys: *Being close to the business
*Making decisions, not just reporting them
*Working directly with owners

The Setup*3 days per week (part-time)
*Remote-first with travel to attend monthly board meetings in the North West
*Must be based in the North West / Greater Manchester area
Why It’s Worth a Conversation*Real FD-level influence across multiple SMEs
*Your work will be seen and acted on immediately
*Join a business with serious growth plans
*A role that offers autonomy, variety, and impact
If you’ve lived and breathed construction SMEs and want a role where you can genuinely influence outcomes — let’s talk.
