Key duties of this role:

1. Preparation of monthly management accounts journals and analyses, working directly with divisional and other colleagues.
2. Undertake financial analysis to support/drive the commercial objectives of the business.
3. Support divisional departmental managers in managing their financial budgets and quarterly reforecasts.
4. Support operational teams in producing financial reports and associated financial analyses, exceptions reporting, reporting trends and performance indicators.
5. Participate in ad-hoc projects designed to support commercial and other initiatives, and to aid in the development of your skills and experience.
6. Provide assistance with continuous improvement projects.

Full training will of course be provided.

What you'll bring:

1. Qualified to degree level in a relevant discipline, AAT or Certificate Level CIMA, or equivalent qualification with a desire to attain full CIMA qualification.
2. Relevant management accounting experience would be advantageous but not essential (if joining from higher education).
3. Well organised and able to manage time effectively to meet multiple deadlines.
4. Ability to develop constructive working relationships at all levels of the business.
5. Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to communicate at all levels within the organisation.
