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.
Worthing (/ˈwɜːrðɪŋ/ WUR-dhing) is a seaside town and borough in West Sussex, England, at the foot of the South Downs, 11 miles (18 km) west of Brighton, and 18 miles (29 km) east of Chichester. With a population of 113,094[2] and an area of 12.5 square miles (32.4 km2), the borough is the second largest component of the Brighton and Hove built-up area, the 15th most populous urban area in the United Kingdom. Northern parts of the borough, including the Worthing Downland Estate, form part of the South Downs National Park. In 2019, the Art Deco Worthing Pier was dubbed the best in Britain.[3]
Dating from around 4000 BC, the flint mines at Cissbury and nearby Church Hill, Blackpatch and Harrow Hill are amongst the earliest Neolithic monuments in Britain.[4] The Iron Age hill fort of Cissbury Ring is one of Britain's largest. The recorded history of Worthing began with the Domesday Book. Worthing is historically part of Sussex, mostly in the rape of Bramber; Goring, which forms part of the rape of Arundel, was incorporated in 1929. Worthing was a small mackerel fishing hamlet for many centuries until, in the late 18th century, it developed into an elegant Georgian seaside resort and attracted the well-known and wealthy of the day. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the area was one of Britain's chief market gardening centres.[5]
Modern Worthing has a large service industry, particularly in financial services. It has three theatres and one of Britain's oldest cinemas, the Dome.[6] Writers Oscar Wilde and Harold Pinter lived and worked in the town.
