  • Leading month-end close and ensuring financial accuracy under IFRS and UK GAAP

  • Managing the audit process and acting as the key liaison with external auditors

  • Coaching and supporting the team to deliver consistently high performance

  • Reviewing and improving financial processes for efficiency and compliance

  • Working cross-functionally with HQ and group finance teams

  • This is a visible and hands-on leadership role with scope to influence and evolve accounting operations locally.

What you'll need to succeed

  • ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified (mandatory), ideally with a background in practice and audit

  • Experience managing small finance teams and leading audits

  • Strong technical accounting knowledge (statutory, IFRS, reconciliations)

  • Highly organised, commercially minded, and confident engaging with stakeholders

  • First time movers from practice will be considered

What you'll get in return

In addition to a competitive salary of up to £65,000 (DOE), you’ll receive a company car, benefits package, and access to long-term development within a well-respected organisation. This is a permanent role, with interviews taking place as soon as possible.
