Company Accountant

£55,000 | Long Eaton, Nottinghamshire

The best accountants don't just produce good numbers.

They find ways to make the entire finance function work better.

That's exactly what this business is looking for.

We're working with an established, privately owned group in the service sector, looking to recruit a Company Accountant to take ownership of its finance function.

It's a small team, with several businesses operating within the group, and the opportunity to make a genuine difference.

What's the opportunity?

You'll work directly with the Managing Director, taking responsibility for the finance function across the group.

This is a genuinely hands on role, covering everything from maintaining the ledgers, invoicing and payment runs through to VAT, cash flow forecasting and producing monthly management accounts.

A big part of the position will be producing a clear, concise monthly management accounts pack, giving the directors better visibility of performance, cash flow and what's happening across the different businesses.

But here's what makes it interesting.

They don't just want someone to manage the existing processes. They want someone to improve them.

The business uses Xero and is keen to embrace technology, automation and smarter ways of working.

If you've ever looked at a repetitive finance task and thought, "Surely there's a better way of doing this", you'll probably enjoy it here.

You'll have the autonomy to make changes, improve reporting and help the business operate more efficiently.

Who are they looking for?

Someone who enjoys being hands on, takes ownership and is comfortable working in a smaller business.

You'll need experience producing management accounts, strong Xero knowledge and a genuine interest in improving systems and processes.

Qualifications are flexible. You could be a fully qualified accountant, part qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA, qualified by experience with a strong practical accounting background, or AAT qualified.

What's on offer?

• Salary circa £55,000 depending on experience
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• One day working from home if required
• 37.5 hour working week
• Direct exposure to the Managing Director
• Genuine autonomy to improve the finance function

If you're the sort of accountant who wants to do more than simply keep the books up to date, I'd love to hear from you.
