The Organisation
This is a financially robust and internationally active organisation with an income in excess of £40 million. Operating across multiple jurisdictions, it combines commercial acumen with a mission-driven ethos. The finance function is well-established, and the organisation is undergoing a period of positive transformation, with a strong focus on improving systems, controls, and reporting quality.

The Job
We're recruiting a technically strong Financial Accountant to lead on statutory reporting, audit delivery, and balance sheet integrity across the group and its subsidiaries. Reporting to the Finance Director, you'll manage the year-end close, oversee group consolidation, and act as the key liaison with external auditors and outsourced accounting providers. You’ll also line manage an Assistant Financial Accountant based overseas and play a pivotal role in improving financial controls and reporting processes.
This is a hands-on role requiring a blend of technical expertise, stakeholder engagement, and process improvement. The organisation uses Sun Accounts and operates in a multi-entity, multi-currency environment.

The Person
We're looking for a fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or equivalent) with:
  • Strong technical accounting knowledge, including FRS 102 and group consolidation.
  • Proven experience managing audits and statutory accounts preparation.
  • A proactive, detail-oriented approach with excellent communication skills.
  • Experience working with or managing outsourced accounting teams is desirable.
  • Exposure to international or not-for-profit environments would be a bonus.

What’s in it for You?
  • Salary of £80,000
  • 10% matched pension
  • Hybrid working with flexibility – 1 day per week in the office
  • Opportunity to lead on group-wide financial reporting and audit
  • A collaborative, values-driven culture with senior stakeholder visibility

What to Do Now
If you're a technically strong accountant looking to step into a pivotal role with international scope and strategic influence, I’d love to hear from you. Apply now or contact me directly for a confidential discussion.
