REQUIREMENTS

Due to the nature of the role, I am looking to speak with individuals who have previous accountancy experience. Qualifications such as CIMA or ACCA may have been gained, but a minimum of 5 years accountancy experience is a must, as well as the ability to show previous roles where you have completed the explained tasks before. I am also ideally looking for someone who has worked for a similar construction business, but this is not a must, if good experience can be shown within a similar environment.

The base package for the right individual is negotiable, but we are estimating this to be circa £45,000 to £65,000 per annum depending on the level of your previous experience.
