Financial Accountant for an engineering company based in London seeking a recently qualified ACA accountant

Your new company

I am supporting a well-established engineering company is looking for a Financial Accountant to join their growing team! The company has recently acquired a new asset in the UK and therefore is looking for a Financial Accountant with strong UK GAAP experience to assist. This is a great opportunity to join the company at an exciting time of growth, and work alongside impressive finance leaders that will help with your development. The client is ideally seeking someone coming straight from practice (open on size) but ideally having exposure to engineering or heavier sector clients (but not essential).

Your new role

Reporting to the Financial Controller, your responsibilities will include:
  • Contribute to the preparation of annual statutory financial statements for the group and its subsidiaries in accordance with UK GAAP, ensuring full compliance with all relevant reporting standards.
  • Collaborate with external auditors throughout the audit process, responding to enquiries and facilitating the timely resolution of any issues raised.
  • Drive improvements in financial reporting processes and internal controls, supporting the manager’s commitment to accuracy, efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
  • Provide support in tax-related activities, including VAT submissions, corporate tax calculations, and annual tax disclosures
  • Assisting with cash flow management
  • Perform monthly balance sheet reconciliations
  • Assisting with ad hoc projects

What you'll need to succeed

You'll ideally be an ACA Qualified Accountant. The client is open to the size of practice. You’ll ideally have exposure to engineering, infrastructure, or similar heavy sector clients (but this is not essential).

What you'll get in return

A competitive salary of £60,000–£65,000, plus a 10% performance bonus and a comprehensive benefits package. You’ll be supported in expanding this role further, working alongside accomplished finance leaders who are committed to your professional development.
