You will report to the Director of Financial Control and work closely with the wider finance team and external advisors where needed.

• Have several years of financial reporting experience, either from external audit (Big 4/mid-tier) or from a financial reporting/technical accounting role in industry
• Have strong knowledge of UK GAAP and IFRS, including experience with consolidations
• Have a practical understanding of UK tax (VAT and Corporation Tax), with advisors available for technical support
• Possess excellent attention to detail and analytical skills
• Comfortable working independently and managing multiple priorities
• Can communicate financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders

Nice to have:
