- a document that defines the rights, responsibilities and status of this specialist within the company. The instructions also determine the subordination and requirements for this employee. Let's figure out what exactly such a document is and how it is compiled.

What is a financial manager?

The modern economy is developing so rapidly that new professions and positions are constantly appearing that no one has even heard of before. The profession of a financial manager is one of these. What does this specialist do?

In practice, the word “manager” is understood as a person engaged in one of the areas of management (management of some area of ​​activity), increasing profits in it and reducing costs. Thus, a financial manager is a person who manages cash flows moving within the company, as well as between it and counterparties under contracts.

Moreover, the position of financial manager is introduced only at large enterprises. In small companies, the tasks of financial management are solved jointly by the head of the company and the chief accountant, who is entrusted with control functions. In large companies, financial management is often handled by a special department, department or other division in the internal structure. If the creation of such a unit is not practical, the manager may act as an employee reporting directly to the general director (in this case, the financial manager is often called the financial director).

With all this, the law has not established uniform requirements for the title of such a position, and a general practice for all companies operating in the financial sector has not yet been developed. However, determining the place of a financial manager in the company structure is extremely important, so it is highly advisable to display this information in a job description - a document defining the rights, duties and responsibilities of the employee.

The role of the job description of a financial manager

Job descriptionfinancial manager does not apply to documents that are always required by law. However, such a document is extremely useful, because in most cases it is drawn up at those enterprises where the position of financial manager is being introduced. The benefits of having such instructions are as follows:

Don't know your rights?

1. It makes it possible to clearly delineate the responsibilities of the financial manager and other employees working in related areas. For example, partial overlap can be observed between the responsibilities of a financial manager and an accountant - and it is precisely the instructions that make it possible to specifically determine which of them will act in different situations and how.
2. It allows the employee to clearly know what exactly he is required to do. This allows him to clearly focus on specific responsibilities and understand what management demands may be unreasonable. It also improves the management of the company, since the administration knows exactly what and from whom it can be demanded.
3. The instructions allow you to objectively judge the quality of the employee’s work. If he fails to cope with the responsibilities listed in this document, this may become the basis for the application of disciplinary measures (reprimand, deprivation of bonuses, etc.). Also, the courts, in the event of a dispute between an employee and the company on issues relating to the validity of dismissal, require the submission of a job description. If it is not available, it can become a serious problem for the company.

In addition, the job description defines:

• what place does a manager occupy in the overall structure of the company, to whom does he report and who can he manage;
• what is his competence, what are the requirements for a person applying for this position;
• what rights does he have?
• what kind of responsibility and in what cases he bears in accordance with the law and internal regulations of the enterprise.

Structure of the job description of a financial manager

The law does not establish mandatory requirements for what a financial manager’s job description should look like and what parts it should consist of. However, there are regulations that should be followed when developing such documents. These include, in particular:

1. Qualification Directory of Positions (QDS), adopted by the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation in 1998. In 2003, it was supplemented by the description of the position “Financial Director”, which can be used as the basis for instructions intended for the manager, with the allowance for the fact that he may not act as one of the management employees.
2. GOST standards for office work. They relate only to the external execution of documents, but may be important when preparing any internal act of an enterprise, including job descriptions. For example, GOST R 7.0.8-2013, concerning office work and archiving, provides definitions of terms used in document management; GOST R 6.30-2003 describes the rules regarding the placement of the stamp and other details, documentation forms, etc. All this information will allow you to prepare the job description properly.

Typically, the job description of a financial manager is structured according to the following scheme:

1. General provisions. Here it is established which category the financial manager belongs to in a particular organization (he can be either a specialist or a manager if he has subordinates), to whom he reports, and by whom he is appointed and dismissed. If necessary, it is also stated here what qualifications he must have to occupy the position (education, work experience, knowledge of specific regulations, etc.).
2. Responsibilities assigned to this employee. They will be described in more detail below.
3. Rights vested in the employee. In relation to the financial manager, it is required to indicate at a minimum the right to sign relevant documents, the right to correspond with divisions/branches of the company and third-party organizations, the right to request and receive information necessary for work.
4. Responsibilities borne by the person holding this position. It is usually stated that the manager bears disciplinary liability for failure to comply with management orders, as well as civil, administrative and criminal liability in cases provided for by Russian legislation.

Responsibilities assigned to the financial manager

The duties section is the main part of any job description. The instructions for the financial manager are no exception. The exact list of responsibilities will depend on the area in which the company operates, since the activities of, for example, a financial manager of a bank and a financial manager of a manufacturing company differ quite greatly. However, there are some general points:

• management of the company’s finances, focused on making them profitable;
• development of plans, forecasts and budgets in various areas of the enterprise;
• control over working capital and acceleration of their turnover;
• managing the organization’s capital and taking measures aimed at increasing its price;
• analysis of the economic condition of the organization, achieved results, audit;
• ensuring solvency and increasing the profitability of the enterprise;
• control over financial discipline and targeted use of funds;
• development of methods that allow regulating the financial component of an enterprise’s activities (cost distribution, setting prices and tariffs, etc.);
• management of the company's financial assets;
• search for additional sources of financing necessary for the organization’s activities, as well as analysis of associated risks and possible losses;
• consultations with management on issues of financing production activities (if any);
• establishing and maintaining business relations with financial institutions that finance the work of the enterprise;
• preparation, together with accountants, of documents on all company payments;
• implementation of the organization's investment policy;
• analysis and assessment of how effectively the company’s funds are invested;
• calculation of expected profits and losses from the operation of the enterprise;
• participation in the distribution of profits received, taking into account previously prepared plans;
• optimization of tax and other payments to the budgets of the state, municipalities, as well as to extra-budgetary funds;
• preparation of reports for the management and founders (shareholders) of the enterprise regarding its financial condition;
• consultation with company management on current financial issues.

If necessary, this list can be expanded.

Requirements for knowledge and qualifications of a financial manager

No less important is the section of the job description devoted to the description of the requirements that apply to the candidate for the position. In relation to the financial manager, when developing this section, you can rely on the provisions of the CSD, since it contains requirements that are equally applicable to both the financial director and the financial manager.

In particular, the financial manager must know:

• regulations governing the financial, economic and production activities of the company;
• norms and methods used in the field of accounting and financial management;
• at least the basics of civil, financial, tax and business law;
• specialization and organizational structure of the company;
• methods used to analyze financial activities, markets, risks and planning in this area;
• the procedure for concluding contracts in the field of the company’s work;
• the procedure for concluding and executing loan agreements, investment methods;
• procedure for working with securities;
• procedure for organizing the audit;
• legislation relating to labor itself and its protection.

The KSD, as a qualification requirement, also indicates the need for higher economic education and work experience in the financial or accounting field of at least 5 years. However, the CSD norms are only advisory, so the employer has the right to set requirements independently.

How are job descriptions developed and applied?

The procedure for developing and applying instructions for a financial manager is as follows:

1. The head of the company issues an order to prepare the relevant document. If necessary, he appoints a commission that will prepare the instructions, or a specific person with the necessary experience to prepare it.
2. A draft text is being prepared. If the preparation commission includes representatives of personnel or legal services, they are directly involved in the preparation; if they are not, the project is coordinated with the relevant departments of the company.
3. The prepared document is approved by the head of the company.
4. The manager meets him under his signature.

If necessary, a copy of the completed instructions is given to the employee.

The priority goals of any company should include an item, the essence of which is the effective management of resources. Much depends on what strategy the company has chosen. This can influence the formation of cash flow management principles, as well as the determination of the relationships that have developed between different business entities. And in this review we will try to consider what such a specialty as a financial manager is.

Who can influence the effective operation of the company?

Accounting, control, resource distribution and other similar functions are assigned to the economic department. Its employees are required to be responsible for the competent implementation of the relevant enterprise policies. They are obliged to create conditions that will facilitate the effective operation of the company. A financial manager must solve a variety of problems, of which there can be a lot.

Using software to solve problems

In his work, a financial manager has to use a variety of tools. The process involving accounting and control is quite complex and responsible.

Conclusion

Organizational structure of financial management

2.1. Structure of the financial management system at the enterprise

Financial services structure enterprises are usually built according to the functional principle, which involves a clear definition of the functions of each structural unit and employee. Depending on the scale of the enterprise, the service may be headed by a financial director, financial manager, or chief accountant.

Small business: The functions of the financial director (manager) are assigned to the chief accountant (Fig. 1).

Rice. 1 Structure of the financial service of small enterprises

Medium enterprises: In medium-sized enterprises, accounting functions performed by the accounting department are distinguished separately and the functions of the financial director (manager) in this case include planning, forecasting, analysis, control, searching for sources of financing, etc. (Fig.2)

Rice. 2. Structure of the financial service of medium-sized enterprises

Large enterprises: A distinctive feature of the financial service at large enterprises is a large degree of functional detail, in accordance with which the structural divisions of the enterprise are formed. For a large company, the most typical feature is the separation of a special service, led by the vice president for finance (financial director) and, as a rule, including accounting and finance departments (Fig. 3).

Regardless of the organizational structure of the company's management, the financial manager is responsible for making decisions in the field of financial management or making recommendations to senior management, for analyzing financial problems.

A financial manager is a person who manages the money of a business. The quality of his work largely depends on the range of job responsibilities that he performs. Let's look at this in more detail.

What does a financial manager do?

Previously, at large enterprises, the issue of cash accounting was dealt with exclusively by the accounting department. However, the employees of this division essentially only reacted to those changes in the assets and liabilities of the enterprise that had already occurred. They did not influence decision-making and were not involved in management or management.

However, as the company develops and grows, this work will become more and more difficult. Therefore, financial management responsibilities must be delegated to a separate employee. And here you cannot make a mistake and lay financial management responsibilities for an accountant.

But why not an accountant? After all, he also works with finances and keeps records of them. Why do we need another person on staff? The answer is simple. An accountant sums up the company's activities. It uses numbers and data from the past. And the financial manager looks to the future. He plans activities, analyzes market data, . This is a critical difference and it is important to understand it so as not to force the accountant to engage in activities that are unusual for him.

He makes decisions under conditions of uncertainty and risk, choosing the most promising options. And the accountant must keep strict calculations that reflect the state of affairs in the company as accurately as possible.
