Finanical Accountant

Equifind are proudly working alongside a boutique asset manager for a Financial Reporting Accountant. To date they now boast just over $2bn in capital and $10bn invested across emerging markets with all work being focussed on the commodities side.

Amidst the recent growth they now have expansion plans in place for the Financial Reporting team, where this will report directly into the CFO & a dotted line to the Head of FP&A. It’s a brilliant role that will require you to bring an innovative approach to the position, looking to continually improve internal processes and enhance the service delivery and business partnering of the finance department.

As the business grows, so too will your role with more responsibility presented to you over time, and likely a junior reporting into you fully. Alongside this you will also be working closely with the Head of FP&A on ad-hoc tasks such as building out financial plans for company expansions.

Having previously placed the entirety of the finance team I can safely say they are very much down to earth and are seeking someone with strong communication skills and the ability to work with a variety of different departments in a social yet professional environment in their top spec office by Bond Street.
