Financial Accounting Manager

Your New Company
Our client is recruiting for a Finance Manager to join their team on a permanent basis. The hours of work are Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm. The organisation is based in Inverclyde, and they offer hybrid working with 3 days in the office and 2 days from home. The offices are accessible by public transport and there is also on-site parking.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a values‑driven organisation undergoing exciting transformation, where you’ll play a key role in strengthening controls, improving processes and ensuring the delivery of accurate, audit‑ready financials.

Your New Role
As Finance Manager, you will lead the integrity of the financial reporting process across multiple entities. You'll operate as part of a wider finance function, leading a smaller finance sub-team of up to 5 team members. You’ll take ownership of the month-end close, maintain high standards of accounting compliance, and support internal and external audit requirements. Alongside technical excellence, you’ll provide day‑to‑day leadership to a team covering fixed assets, intercompany, journals and wider accounting activities.
You will be responsible for:
  • Month-End Close
  • Managing timely and accurate GL close activities
  • Ensuring reconciliations and full adherence to IFRS / local GAAP
  • Preparing audit schedules and acting as a key liaison point for auditors
  • Developing and supporting a multi-location team of accountants/accounts assistants
  • Driving automation, standardisation, and continuous improvement across the finance function
What You’ll Need to Succeed
Ideally, the organisation is looking for a qualified accountant with strong experience in a technical accounting or accounting leadership role. Candidates who are part qualified/qualified-by-experience may also be considered. A proactive, improvement‑focused mindset is essential and you’ll bring confidence in managing month-end close cycles, accruals, reconciliations and controls. You will have experience working with ERP systems. Ideally, you will have proven leadership skills with the ability to coach and develop a team.
You’ll thrive here if you demonstrate:
  • Adaptability and resilience in evolving environments
  • Exceptional attention to detail
  • Collaboration across functions and locations
What You’ll Get in Return
  • Competitive salary + comprehensive benefits package
  • Hybrid working
  • Involvement in high‑profile transformation projects
  • The chance to streamline processes and influence best practice
  • Excellent long-term career progression within a global organisation
