Key Responsibilities


  • Produce timely and accurate management accounts and monthly reporting for both local and group requirements in accordance with agreed formats and timetables.
  • Develop comprehensive reporting packs and deliver detailed overhead reviews in partnership with key business stakeholders.
  • Analyse complex financial data to identify issues, explain variances from budget or forecast, and support users in making informed decisions based on robust information.
  • Ensure robust financial controls are maintained within all financial systems, identifying areas for system or control improvements as needed.
  • Reconcile and review balance sheets at each month end, resolving any discrepancies promptly to maintain financial integrity.
  • Build strong internal relationships by supporting cost centre managers and Finance Business Partners through effective communication and collaboration.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives by documenting financial processes and leading ad-hoc projects aimed at enhancing reporting efficiency.
  • Mentor assistant accountants within your team, fostering talent development and knowledge sharing to create a pipeline of future leaders.
  • Manage the month-end process across three legal entities with combined annualised revenue exceeding £1bn, ensuring streamlined procedures are followed.
  • Provide technical support on intercompany transactions, treasury matters, VAT preparation, corporation tax analysis, and assist with audits as required.

Key Requirements


  • ACA/ACCA/ACMA qualification with ideally one to two years’ post-qualification experience in a similar finance role within a large or complex organisation.
  • Demonstrate experience managing or mentoring junior team members.
  • Possess excellent people skills with proven ability to build dependable relationships across departments while supporting colleagues through change.
  • Showcase advanced analytical thinking with meticulous attention to detail when handling complex financial data sets or reconciliations.
  • Display commercial awareness alongside technical competence in producing management accounts for multiple legal entities under tight deadlines.
  • Communicate clearly through written reports and presentations tailored for both finance professionals and non-finance stakeholders alike.
  • Exhibit enthusiasm for continuous improvement by proactively identifying opportunities for process enhancements within existing systems or workflows.
  • Maintain credibility through personal integrity aligned with organisational values such as respect, humility, solidarity, courage, and conviviality.
  • Adapt quickly during periods of transition—such as acquisitions or new system implementations—by offering reliable support to peers throughout change management initiatives.
