There’s a difference between working in a finance team and actually being part of one. In some businesses, you’re responsible for your little corner of the accounts department. You do your bit, someone else does theirs, and you occasionally exchange pleasantries near the kettle. This isn’t one of those businesses. There are four people in the finance team.
