You'll get straight into the detail: margins, stock valuation, and variance analysis that actually shapes decisions.

As a Management Accountant, you will benefit from:

• Direct exposure to senior stakeholders and commercial decision-making
• A supportive management structure
• The chance to shape processes and systems as the finance function develops
• Career progression within a well-established business
• Full time office based role

As a Management Accountant, your responsibilities will include:

• Prepare and present monthly management accounts and board reports
• Lead gross margin analysis by product line
• Produce and interpret variance analysis comparing actual results against budget and forecast
• Oversee stock valuation and reconciliation across chilled and frozen inventory
• Manage VAT returns and other statutory reporting requirements
• Support and review the work of an Assistant Management Accountant

As a Management Accountant, your experience will include:

• Qualified or part-qualified CIMA, ACCA, or ACA (or equivalent)
• Proven experience in a management accounting role, ideally within food distribution, wholesale, or FMCG
• Advanced Excel skills, including pivot tables and VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP
• Strong understanding of stock control and cost accounting
• Experience working confidently with high-volume transactional data
