Financial Accountant

Your new company

A highly successful international organisation with operations across multiple European countries is seeking a Regional Financial Accountant to join its London-based finance team. This is an excellent opportunity to join a complex, multi-entity business that values collaboration, continuous improvement and professional development. Working within a high-performing regional finance function, you will gain exposure to a broad range of accounting, reporting and business partnering activities while supporting stakeholders across Europe.

Your new role

As Regional Financial Accountant, you will play a key role in supporting the financial reporting and statutory compliance activities of a portfolio of entities across Europe. Working closely with senior finance leadership and local finance teams, you will help ensure the delivery of accurate, timely and insightful financial information while contributing to ongoing process improvements and finance projects. Key responsibilities include:
  • Supporting monthly, quarterly and annual financial reporting cycles
  • Reviewing statutory accounts and ensuring compliance with relevant accounting standards
  • Analysing balance sheets, investigating variances and ensuring reconciliations are completed accurately
  • Assisting with budgeting, forecasting and cash flow reporting processes
  • Working with local finance teams to improve reporting quality, consistency and efficiency
  • Supporting audit, compliance and risk management activities across multiple entities
  • Partnering with group finance, tax, legal and treasury teams on reporting requirements and data requests
  • Contributing to finance transformation and process improvement projects
  • Reviewing and approving journals, payments and intercompany transactions where appropriate
  • Acting as a key point of contact for finance stakeholders across the European region

What you'll need to succeed

You will be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with strong financial reporting and statutory accounting experience. The business is particularly interested in individuals with a solid technical accounting background, including those making their first move from practice into industry. You will be comfortable working in a fast-paced, international environment and possess strong analytical and communication skills. Advanced Excel skills and experience working with accounting systems are essential, alongside a proactive mindset and a genuine interest in statutory reporting and financial control. It is essential that you are on 2 months or less notice period.

What you'll get in return

You'll receive a competitive salary of £55,000–£60,000, alongside an annual bonus and a comprehensive benefits package. Beyond the financial rewards, this role offers excellent exposure to senior finance stakeholders across Europe and the opportunity to build expertise in statutory reporting, financial control and multi-entity accounting within a complex international environment. It's an ideal move for someone looking to develop their technical accounting career while gaining broader commercial and regional finance exposure in a supportive and collaborative team.
