The Opportunity

Are you an Assistant Management Accountant / Management Accountant looking for a varied role within a growing private equity backed SME?

Awesome role for a confident part qualified / finalist / newly qualified in an SME amid change and modernisation. You’ll have an excellent mentor in the current FD – a manager who will hugely impact your development and future career opportunities.

You will be the “number 2 in finance” - supporting a modern thinking Finance Director in overhauling all existing controls, reporting and management information.

The business is profitable and trading well, they have an ambitious leadership team and you will be part of projects designed to improve the level and depth of the commercial reporting and MI / insights which guide decision making.

You’ll manage a small team and present detailed management accounts to the FD. You’ll drill into variances, profit streams, margins, cost drivers… the FD is looking for an enthusiastic, ambitious and proactive accountant who will bring ideas and fresh insights to the table.

It’s a superb platform for someone who ultimately sees themselves progressing into an FD role down the line.

It’s a hands on position and you will need to be comfortable drilling into the numbers and managing a team of 2 transactional finance assistants / clerks.

Required:

\n
• Qualified or studying towards ACCA or CIMA.
\n
• Excellent analytical skills and ability to use the data to extract meaningful MI and questions for the business.
