Description du poste

Group Financial Accountant | North Yorkshire | £55,000 to £65,000

Working pattern: full time, hybrid, typically three days a week in the office.

I'm working with a multi-entity group that needs a Group Financial Accountant to own the consolidation. It suits someone already doing group reporting who wants more ownership of it, and a bigger technical brief.

Group Finance sits at head office and works closely with finance leads around the business. The month end runs across a large number of entities, so the consolidation is the core of the job.

The role

• Own the monthly consolidation journals across the group.
• Bring new entities into the group accounts and get the opening position right.
• Tighten balance sheet controls with the finance leads in the business.
• Be the technical voice when new accounting standards come in.
• Run the statutory year end and look after the audit.
• Pull together the numbers senior management use to make decisions, and simplify the reporting where you can.
• Line manage and develop part of the team.

The person

• ACA or ACCA qualified.
• Strong on IFRS and group consolidation.
• Doing group reporting now. Multi-entity experience is a bonus.
• Practice-trained is welcome, as is experience of a consolidation system.
• Happy explaining technical points to people outside finance, and comfortable managing juniors.

The package

• £55,000 to £65,000 depending on experience.
• Full time, 37.5 hours.
• Hybrid, typically three days a week in the office.

This is a technical, detail-heavy seat. If your background is mainly management accounts, it probably isn't the one. It's also three days a week in the office, so it needs to be a commute you're happy with.
