Finance Manager

Finance Manager / Commercial Finance Business Partner

Healthcare Supply & Distribution Sector

Leeds | £50,000 - £65,000 (DOE) + bonus + benefits

Hybrid 4-5 days on site

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a commercially minded Finance Manager / Commercial Finance Business Partner to join a growing healthcare organisation that supports GP practices and primary care providers across the UK.

This is a newly created role within an expanding Primary Care division, offering the chance to operate at the centre of a dynamic business supplying medical products, equipment and operational support services to healthcare providers nationwide.

The organisation forms part of a wider healthcare group and is entering a new phase of development as it continues to scale its services across the UK primary care market. As a result, the business is strengthening its finance capability to support better commercial decision making, improve financial visibility and ensure the organisation continues to grow profitably.

This position offers significantly more scope than a traditional reporting finance role. The Finance Manager will work closely with divisional leadership to provide meaningful financial insight across a multi-product, multi-service commercial environment where revenue is generated through a combination of product distribution, equipment supply, service partnerships and operational support for healthcare providers.

The Business

The organisation specialises in supporting general practice and primary care organisations, working with GP surgeries, primary care networks and other healthcare providers across the UK.

Its business model is centred around simplifying procurement and operational challenges for healthcare providers. In practical terms, the organisation supplies everything required for a GP practice to operate effectively, ranging from medical consumables and pharmaceutical products to diagnostic equipment and operational supplies.

In addition to traditional healthcare product distribution, the business has developed a broader service offering that may include:

• diagnostic equipment supply and installation
  
  
• equipment servicing and calibration partnerships
  
  
• operational support services for GP practices
  
  
• procurement optimisation and supply consolidation
  
  This hybrid model creates a diverse commercial environment where revenue streams include product sales, service partnerships and project-based work. As the organisation continues to grow, financial insight into these revenue streams will become increasingly important.
  
  The Opportunity
  
  The Finance Manager will play a key role in strengthening the finance function and supporting the continued growth of the Primary Care division.
  
  Working closely with the Primary Care Director and Group CFO, the successful candidate will act as a commercial finance partner to the leadership team, helping translate financial data into meaningful insight that supports operational and strategic decisions.
  
  The role combines traditional management accounting responsibilities with a strong emphasis on commercial finance, business partnering and performance analysis.
  
  The successful candidate will support financial reporting, forecasting and planning across the division while also helping the leadership team understand profitability across products, services and customer segments.
  
  This is an excellent opportunity for a finance professional who enjoys working closely with operational teams and wants to contribute directly to the commercial success of a growing business.
  
  Key Areas of Responsibility
  
  The Finance Manager will support both the financial performance and strategic development of the Primary Care division.
  
  Responsibilities will include preparing and presenting monthly financial performance reports, producing detailed management accounts and providing clear analysis of variances against budgets and forecasts.
  
  Working closely with divisional leadership, the role will also involve providing financial insight into commercial performance, supporting budgeting and forecasting processes and helping the business understand profitability across product categories, service offerings and customer segments.
  
  The position will also play a key role in strengthening financial reporting processes, improving forecasting capability and developing meaningful management information that enables better decision making across the organisation.
  
  In addition, the Finance Manager will support the development of the internal finance function, working with the existing finance team to ensure accurate financial control while introducing stronger commercial insight into the business.
  
  Business Transformation and Systems
  
  The business is currently implementing a new ERP system which will go live later this year.
  
  The Finance Manager will be closely involved in supporting the accounting and reporting elements of this implementation, ensuring that financial processes, reporting structures and system outputs support the needs of the leadership team.
  
  This presents an opportunity to contribute to the development of financial systems and processes that will support the organisation's continued growth.
  
  Candidate Profile
  
  This role is ideally suited to a qualified accountant who enjoys operating within a commercial environment and working closely with operational stakeholders.
  
  Applicants should be fully qualified (ACA, ACCA or CIMA or equivalent) and comfortable working in a finance role that combines management accounting, financial analysis and commercial business partnering.
  
  Candidates may currently hold a Finance Manager, Commercial Finance Manager, Finance Business Partner or Senior Management Accountant title and be seeking an opportunity to broaden their commercial exposure within a growing business.
  
  Experience gained within sectors such as healthcare supply, medical consumables, pharmaceutical distribution, medical devices, healthcare logistics or other B2B distribution environments would be advantageous, although candidates from other product and service-based commercial businesses may also find their experience highly transferable.
  
  The successful candidate will demonstrate strong analytical capability, commercial awareness and the ability to translate financial data into practical business insight. Strong communication skills and the confidence to challenge and influence non-finance stakeholders are also essential.
  
  Culture and Environment
  
  The organisation is known internally for its collaborative and supportive culture.
  
  Employees frequently describe the company as having a strong team ethos where people work closely together and take pride in supporting the healthcare sector.
  
  The leadership team places significant emphasis on hiring individuals who demonstrate authenticity, strong work ethic and the ability to work collaboratively with colleagues across the business.
  
  Location and Working Pattern
  
  The role is based at the company's operational site in Leeds.
  
  Due to the collaborative nature of the role and the ongoing system implementation, the position is expected to be primarily office-based (typically four to five days per week), particularly during the initial period.
  
  Salary and Benefits
  
  The role offers a salary in the region of £50,000 - £65,000 depending on experience, together with a bonus scheme and a comprehensive benefits package.
  
  Benefits include pension contributions, health support schemes, additional leave options and a range of employee wellbeing initiatives.
  
  Why This Role Stands Out
  
  For finance professionals who enjoy combining commercial insight with operational engagement, this opportunity offers the chance to join a growing healthcare organisation at an exciting stage of its development.
  
  The successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape the finance function, work closely with senior leadership and contribute directly to the continued growth of a business supporting frontline healthcare services across the UK
