Senior Management Accountant

A role that offers more than month-end reporting. A genuine opportunity to gain commercial stakeholder exposure.

Either an industry trained CIMA/ACCA currently sat in a vanilla Management Accounting role wanting that little bit more.

Or, perhaps making the first step out of professional practice as an ACA/ACCA, and one of the most important moves to nail and get right!

It's finding the right business to launch the next stage of your career in a role that is engaging, rewarding and broadens the skillset. A role that provides genuine exposure, commercial insight, leadership responsibility and a platform for progression.

This opportunity offers exactly that. We're delighted to be partnering with one of Yorkshire's most exciting growth businesses. A company that has experienced significant transformation, sustained expansion and continued investment in both its people and infrastructure. The result is a finance function that is highly respected internally, commercially focused and viewed as a genuine business partner.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a qualified ACMA/ACA/ACCA qualified accountant, looking to join a business where ambition, progression and development are genuinely encouraged and rewarded in the bucket load.

Reporting into an impressive and supportive senior finance leadership team, you'll take ownership of a broad range of financial and management accounting responsibilities whilst also leading a small reporting team.

Unlike many industry roles that can become transactional or repetitive, this position offers significant exposure across both operational and commercial finance, providing an exceptional foundation for future progression into Finance Business Partnering, Commercial Finance, Financial Control or wider leadership roles.

• Production of monthly management accounts and financial reporting
• Ownership and review of balance sheet reconciliations
• Supporting budgeting and forecasting activities
• Managing and developing a small reporting team
• Analysing financial and operational performance information
• Working closely with stakeholders across both finance and operational functions
• Identifying opportunities to improve reporting processes, controls and efficiencies
• Supporting ongoing automation and finance transformation initiatives
• Contributing to wider finance projects and continuous improvement activities

We're keen to speak with ambitious and personable ACMA/ACA or ACCA qualified accountants who are looking for an accelerated pathway in industry.

You’ll likely demonstrate:

• Strong technical or Management Accounting exposure
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
• A proactive and inquisitive mindset
• A desire to challenge existing processes and drive improvement
• The ambition to develop towards senior finance leadership roles in the future

Most importantly, you'll be someone who wants to join a business where your career can develop quickly, your contribution is recognised and your exposure extends far beyond the traditional boundaries of accounting.

Opportunities offering this level of exposure, progression and development don't come along often. For a confidential discussion regarding the role, please contact Gifford & Partners for a consultative overview.
