Job description

At Vitamin Well Group, we provide great-tasting drinks, snacks, and protein products. Our brands Vitamin Well, NOCCO, and Barebells are available across most of Europe, North America, the MENA region, and parts of Asia Pacific. With a revenue of 650 million euros, we operate in over 40 markets, with headquarters in Stockholm and offices in fourteen countries around the world.

Vitamin Well in the UK&I

In the UK and Ireland, NOCCO launched in 2018 followed shortly after by Barebells. Today, the two brands are present across multiple channels including grocery, online, convenience and sport and fitness. Vitamin Well joined the portfolio as the third brand in April of last year. We are scaling fast, and working across all three brands means moving at speed, staying focused, and finding the edge. It is a sharp set-up, powered by people who get things done.

About the role

We are looking for a Senior Management Accountant to join our UK&I team on a fixed-term parental leave cover, supporting the growth of our brands across the UK and Ireland.

In this hands-on role, you will work closely with the Head of Finance to lead core management accounting activities and contribute to commercial reporting and business partnering. You will be based in London, as part of a small but growing UK&I team, and help shape local finance processes in alignment with Group Finance in Sweden.

This is a great opportunity for a self-starter to develop their career and make a tangible impact in a dynamic, fast-paced FMCG environment. Alongside regular finance routines, you will also support ad hoc projects to improve reporting, systems, and collaboration across the business.

The position is a fixed-term contract running until the end of October 2026, with a start date in August 2025. While this is a fixed-term role, we are a growing organisation, and there may be future opportunities to explore.

As our Senior Management Accountant, you will:

• Management Accounts & Monthly Closing:
  • Ensure accurate and timely preparation of monthly management accounts, whilst maintaining robust financial controls
  • Process journal entries in D365 and prepare balance sheet reconciliations
  • Take ownership for certain commercial accruals and perform reviews with key stakeholders
  • Assist in preparing local and group reporting packs
• Support Accounts Receivable & Payable (AR/AP): Assist in managing Accounts Receivable, Credit Control, and Accounts Payable processes.
• Contribute to Banking & Cash Management: Review payment runs and assist in cashflow forecasting.
• Assist with Tax Compliance: Help prepare VAT returns and corporation tax submissions.
• Liaise with Auditors: Act as a key contact for auditors and prepare necessary documentation.
• Engage in Ad Hoc Projects: Participate in diverse ad hoc projects, both locally and at the Group level, offering opportunities for growth and contribution to the company’s success.

Who you are

You are a finance professional with solid accounting knowledge, eager to perform in a dynamic role and contribute to the company’s continued success. You excel at building relationships across the business and are confident in your communication with key stakeholders. Your proactive attitude and adaptability enable you to manage multiple tasks and tight deadlines effectively.

This role offers a fantastic opportunity to further develop your skills and make a significant impact.

Essential Skills to Succeed:

• Accounting Knowledge: Strong understanding of core accounting concepts with a commitment to ongoing learning.
• Certification: Qualified or part-qualified in CIMA/ACA/ACCA, or equivalent experience in management accounting.
• Industry Experience: Experience in FMCG or smaller, challenger brands is beneficial but not mandatory.
• Communication: Exceptional ability to build relationships with both finance and non-finance stakeholders.
• Proactive Attitude: A “can do” mindset with a strong drive to take ownership and achieve results.
• Flexibility: Ability to adapt and excel in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
• Multitasking: Skilled at managing multiple tasks and meeting strict deadlines efficiently.
• Organizational Skills: Highly organized and methodical, with a strong attention to detail.
• Analytical Skills: Highly numerate with excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• Technical Skills: Proficient in Excel; experience with Microsoft D365 or PowerBi is a plus.

Welcome with your application no later than July 15th 2025. We review applications on a rolling basis and the position may be filled before the final application date.
