The Role

As a Management Accountant, you will manage bookkeeping, assist with management accounts, and support audits for all group entities (UK, Canada, USA, Germany).

• Generate and analyse reports from SAP Business ByDesign
• Assist with finance system enhancements and BI integration
• Oversee purchase ledger: POs, invoice posting, accruals, prepayments
• Manage payment runs (HSBCNet, RBC) and supplier approvals
• Monitor group cash balances and manage treasury deposits
• Handle VAT and indirect taxes in UK, Germany, and Canada
• Maintain payroll reconciliations and process joiners/leavers

What We're Looking For

• Part-Qualified Accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA)
• Experience with multi-entity/currency accounts, payroll, tax, and treasury
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Familiarity with SAP Business ByDesign (preferable)
• Previous experience on a project-based time and bill business (advantageous)
• Passion for sustainability and innovation
