Financial Accountant

We’re working with a fast-growing, purpose-led healthcare business on the hire of a Financial Reporting Manager to join their evolving finance function.

This is a key role reporting into the Head of Reporting, offering genuine exposure to statutory reporting, IFRS, audit, tax and complex accounting matters, with a clear succession and development pathway built into the role.

It’s well suited to an ACA / ACCA qualified accountant, who enjoys being hands-on while helping to raise the technical standard of a growing finance team.

You’ll take ownership of the organisation’s financial reporting framework, ensuring high-quality, compliant reporting while helping strengthen controls and processes as the business scales.

This is not a box-ticking role you’ll be trusted to apply judgement, challenge where needed, and work closely with senior stakeholders.

• Lead the preparation of statutory accounts in line with relevant accounting standards (IFRS preferred)
• Own technical accounting matters, including drafting papers and advising on complex transactions
• Act as a key contact for external auditors and lead the year-end audit process
• Ensure balance sheet integrity, reconciliations and robust financial controls
• Drive continuous improvement across reporting processes and systems
• Support and mentor junior members of the finance team
• Work closely with the Head of Finance as part of a long-term succession plan

• Strong technical accounting background with IFRS exposure
• Recently from practice or not long out, with solid statutory reporting and tax experience
• Confident across audit, controls and balance sheet ownership
• Able to explain technical matters clearly to non-finance stakeholders
• Proactive, detail-oriented and comfortable operating in a growing, evolving business

• Join a high-quality, purpose-driven organisation making a real impact
• Exposure to interesting technical challenges, not just routine reporting
• Clear progression and development pathway
• Opportunity to influence and shape how the finance function operates as the business grows
• Supportive, professional environment with high standards and ambition
