Description:
MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT | QUALIFIED / NEARLY QUALIFIED | EXCITING BUSINESS PARTNERING OPPORTUNITY
Are you a qualified or nearly qualified ACCA/CIMA Management Accountant looking for a role where you can do more than just produce the numbers?
I'm working with a growing organisation that is looking for a commercially minded Management Accountant who wants to get closer to the business, understand what is really driving performance and have a genuine influence on decision-making.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys the accounting AND the story behind the numbers.
???? What will you be doing?
Alongside the core management accounting responsibilities, you'll have exposure to:
???? Payroll analysis - reviewing and analysing monthly payroll information, comparing it against budgets and highlighting variances to budget holders. This will require a high level of confidentiality and discretion.
???? Reconciliations - taking ownership, getting stuck in and ensuring the numbers are accurate.
???? Budget vs actual analysis - understanding the numbers, investigating variances and working closely with the Head of FP&A to explain what is happening and why.
???? Business partnering - developing strong relationships with HR and wider operational teams and becoming a trusted finance partner.
???? Commercial business partnering - supporting the private side of the organisation as it continues to diversify beyond its established customer base.
????️ Stakeholder engagement - attending meetings, understanding what is happening operationally and translating those conversations into meaningful financial insight.
???? Adding value - reporting back on your findings, identifying what is working, what isn't and where improvements can be made.
???? What are they looking for?
We're looking for someone who is:
✔️ ACCA or CIMA qualified / nearly qualified
✔️ Strong technically across management accounting
✔️ Confident with reconciliations, analysis and month-end
✔️ Commercially minded and interested in the bigger picture
✔️ Comfortable challenging and discussing variances
✔️ A confident communicator with strong stakeholder management skills
✔️ Proactive, inquisitive and willing to take ownership
✔️ Someone who can tell the story behind the numbers, rather than simply report them
This is a great opportunity for a Management Accountant who wants to develop their business partnering and commercial finance experience while remaining hands-on with the accounting.
If you're a qualified/nearly qualified ACCA or CIMA accountant and this sounds like the kind of role you've been looking for, I'd love to hear from you.
