- Completion of monthly accruals, prepayments, journals, and balance sheet reconciliations
- Detailed financial analysis of dealership performance across all departments (new & used vehicles, aftersales, parts, service, etc.)
- Support the preparation of budgets, forecasts, and variance analysis, with clear commentary for both site management and group finance
- Preparation and submission of manufacturer composite and performance reports
- Monitor and control vehicle stock, stock funding, margins, and WIP
- Ensure compliance with group accounting policies, internal controls, and governance requirements
- Act as the main finance liaison between the dealership and group finance, auditors, and external stakeholders
