The Candidate

We're looking for a part-qualified, finalist or newly qualified CIMA/ACCA accountant with strong management accounting and month-end experience.

You'll ideally have experience within a multi-entity or Group environment, although this isn't essential. More important is a strong technical grounding, confidence with balance sheet reconciliations and financial analysis, and the ability to investigate numbers rather than simply report them.

This would suit someone looking for a broad Management Accountant position within a growing business where they can gain exposure across Group reporting, consolidation, commercial analysis and process improvement
