I am keen to speak with bright, driven ACAs with a strong track record in professional training and academics.

• Collaborate with Fund Administration, Portfolio Monitoring & HR to generate consistent platform-level reporting for each board.
• Coordinate with finance teams across the group to ensure consistent financial reporting.
• Oversee and analyze accounting data prepared by outsourced administrators and internal teams.
• Prepare budgets and monitor performance against them.
• Assist in preparing segmental financial forecasts and projections.
• Drive improvements in processes and controls in financial reporting.

What's on offer?

• Strong bonus culture, competitive salary, and benefits.
• 4 days a week in the West End with free daily meals and other perks.
• Fast-paced, performance-driven culture with clear progression pathways.
