The posting
At Field, you'll have real room to make your mark. We're looking for a hands-on Cash & Banking Manager who genuinely enjoys the detail of cash - working closely with our banking partners, managing payment runs, and owning cash journals and reconciliations in NetSuite across multiple entities and currencies. Just as importantly, you'll bring an automation mindset: always looking for smarter ways to get things done, making the most of NetSuite, and building processes that scale as Field grows across Europe. We're a fast-growing business, so you'll have the freedom to shape how things work and put your ideas into practice. If you know your stuff, enjoy a challenge and like seeing your improvements make a real difference, this is a role where you can genuinely shine.
Field has entered its next phase of growth. In June, the UK energy regulator, Ofgem, selected 16 long-duration energy storage projects to progress to delivery. Field were awarded 5 of these. Collectively, in MWh terms, our projects are approximately 3 times the capacity of all battery energy storage installed in the UK to date. We currently have 4 projects totalling over 1GWh of energy storage in construction in GB with lots more delivery to do.
