Financial & Management Accountant – Private Equity

Mayfair, London | Full-time | Newly qualified or 1–2 years PQE

Join one of Europe’s most respected private equity firms – and help shape how finance is done inside the investment firm itself.

We’re supporting a standout PE fund with a rare opportunity for an early-career accountant to join their corporate finance team.

This is a broad role centred on core accounting with strategic input, designed for someone who wants to learn the mechanics of private equity—inside one of the best firms in the industry.

What makes this different?

• Wide exposure: From financial and management reporting to treasury, fund interaction, regulatory returns, and systems transformation.
• Serious leadership: You’ll work directly with a highly capable Financial Controller and CFO—senior voices with complementary strengths who are invested in your development.
• Growth mindset: The team is investing in systems, reporting, and data—this is your chance to help reshape how the finance function runs.
• Leadership stretch: You’ll have the opportunity to mentor an Assistant Accountant once you’re up and running. You don’t just learn here—you lead.
• Real private equity: A lean, high-calibre environment inside a firm known for some of the most iconic deals in the industry.

Who we’re looking for

• ACA, ACCA or equivalent—either newly qualified or up to 2 years PQE
• Background in practice or in-house at a financial services firm, or a genuine interest in moving into private equity
• Strong grasp of financial controls and UK GAAP fundamentals
• Proactive, detail-oriented, and excited to build—not just maintain—processes
• Someone who sees this as the beginning of a high-impact career in private markets

The environment

• 5 days in the office (Mayfair), with a collaborative, supportive culture
• Onsite gym, subsidised personal training, Friday lunches
• A pace and exposure level that will fast-track your development
