Your new role

This Management Accountant position will report directly to the Finance Director and work within a small, close-knit team. You will be required to support and enhance the financial operations of the company, being an integral part of account production through to the month-end closure.

This position will be hands-on in taking responsibility for the daily cash, including allocation, bank reconciliation, and resolving queries from customers. Working closely with the Finance Director, you will prepare the month-end pack to include accruals/prepayments, journals, and balance sheet reconciliations. You will also assist in budgets and forecasting as well as reporting any discrepancies, providing solutions where appropriate.

What you'll need to succeed

This job will suit an ambitious and driven individual who is looking to take their career further and is already in a management accounting position.

Along with strong IT skills (ideally using Sage), you will be competent at using Excel, including pivot tables, V-Look-ups, etc. With excellent communication skills and a professional, mature approach, you will be able to demonstrate a team-oriented manner. It is likely you will have already begun your accountancy qualifications and are looking to qualify.

What you'll get in return

This is a superb opportunity to join a dynamic, expanding company offering you stability as well as a career path aligned with your studies. In return, you will receive study support, 25 holidays, on-site parking and pension, as well as an earlier finish on Friday.
