Finance Executive

A Finance Executive is like the financial compass of a company—they help steer the organisation toward its financial goals while keeping everything balanced and compliant. Here’s a quick breakdown of what they typically do:

  • Strategic Planning: They develop financial strategies aligned with the company’s goals and market conditions.

  • Budgeting and Forecasting: They prepare detailed budgets and predict future financial trends to help leadership make informed decisions.

  • Financial Reporting: Think income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports—Finance Executives oversee and interpret all of that.

  • Risk Management: They assess financial risks and ensure systems are in place to minimise them.

  • Compliance and Governance: They ensure the business follows regulations, tax laws, and internal controls.

  • Team Leadership: They may lead teams of analysts or accountants, guiding and mentoring them along the way.

In many companies, this role is a springboard to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) position.

​Dartford is the principal town in the Borough of Dartford, Kent, England.[2] It is located 18 mi (29 km) south-east of Central London and is situated adjacent to the London Borough of Bexley to its west. To its north, across the Thames estuary, is Thurrock in Essex, which can be reached via the Dartford Crossing. To its east lies the Borough of Gravesham and to the south the district of Sevenoaks. It had a population of 51,240.

The town centre lies in a valley through which the River Darent flows[2] and where the old road from London to Dover crossed: hence the name, which derives from Darent + ford. Dartford became a market town in medieval times and, although today it is principally a commuter town for Greater London, it has a long history of religious, industrial and cultural importance. It is an important rail hub; the main through-road now by-passes the town itself.
