Description
Finance Lead - Statutory, Tax & Compliance
Location: Cygnet Court, Warrington
Salary: £52k
Job Type: [Full-time / Permanent]
The Role Outline: Your Focus at a Glance
This is not your standard back-office finance role. Your focus is to support our Head of Financial Controls & Reporting in keeping our commercial engine running safely and sharply. You are the guardian of our financial governance, making sure we meet all our statutory, tax, and regulatory obligations without slowing down our fast-paced hospitality operations. This role is a brilliant mix of precise number-crunching and big-picture strategy, working closely with the Finance Director, Treasury, and the Village Exec Team.
Why Village?
At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating great experiences for our guests and each other. That is why we back our teams to take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers.
You might be in finance, but you are still the absolute heartbeat of our hospitality brand. Normally, we say attitude matters more than experience. Let's be completely honest though, for this role, we absolutely need both. If you are a lateral thinker who loves solving complex tax puzzles, has the exact technical chops to back it up, and wants to be part of a fun, high-energy team, we will give you the platform to thrive. Because it really does take a Village.
How the Village Thrives
We live our culture through four simple commitments:
As our Finance Lead, you are a crucial player at Cygnet Court. We trust you to handle:
We do not micromanage. We believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to manage multiple deadlines, handle regulatory requirements your way, and use your excellent communication skills to manage stakeholders.
We Empower & Elevate our people. If you are a Qualified or Part Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CPA or equivalent) with strong analytical skills, this is your Room to Grow. We constantly Innovate & Progress so we can Inspire Excellence across the whole company, relying on your high attention to detail, Sage experience, and hospitality sector knowledge to keep us firmly on track.
The Perks: What’s In It For You?
If you are a Qualified or Part Qualified accountant with solid hospitality sector experience, a deep understanding of corporate tax frameworks, and a real knack for problem-solving, we want to hear from you.
We usually say we are not looking for perfect CVs, but for this specific role, we actually need a brilliant one. We need you to have the exact technical experience and qualifications outlined above.
Bring your personality, your drive, and your CV. Hit apply, tell us why you are the right person to lead our compliance, and let's see if we are a match.

How the Village Thrives
We live our culture through four simple commitments:
- We Can & We Do: We show up to make a genuine difference and do fantastic work everyday, with purpose. You will prepare and oversee perfectly accurate statutory financial statements in line with FRS 102 and drive smart improvements in our reporting and automation processes.
- We Will: Treat each other with respect and dignity. No ego, no drama. You will co-lead the year-end audit process and act as the key liaison with external tax advisors and authorities, always representing us brilliantly.
- We Care: We care about our impact on the business and each other. You will protect the company by monitoring changes in tax legislation, managing VAT and corporate tax compliance, and ensuring our internal controls are absolutely solid.
As our Finance Lead, you are a crucial player at Cygnet Court. We trust you to handle:
- Financial Mastery: Reviewing and approving brilliant financial disclosures and supporting group reporting requirements and consolidation processes.
- Tax & Compliance: Overseeing all corporate tax compliance, managing VAT and other indirect tax filings, and staying ten steps ahead of tax legislation changes so our business is always prepared.
- Audit & Governance: Co-leading the year-end audit alongside the Head of Management Accounts, supporting regulatory inspections, and ensuring strict adherence to corporate governance standards.
- System Innovation: We do not just do things the way they have always been done. You will drive improvements and support automation enhancements related to financial reporting to make us significantly more efficient.
We do not micromanage. We believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to manage multiple deadlines, handle regulatory requirements your way, and use your excellent communication skills to manage stakeholders.
