Financial Accountant

Broster Buchanan are currently working on an exclusive basis with a Liverpool based, privately owned business. Recent acquisitions have bolstered what was already a strong standing within their niche sector and they are now extremely well placed to consolidate their position in a multi-billion pound market.

The business has grown astutely over the years, constantly adapting and evolving their offering to cater to changing consumer tastes, immediacy of demands and ever sophisticated competition. This newly created role is a direct result of their growth strategy: both the need to 'right-size' what they have now, whilst equally building a business and platform that will be fit for purpose as further acquisitions are integrated.

The role would suit either a Qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA) or Qualified by Experience (QBE) candidate. The business runs a complex, stock driven import / export model, so exposure to a range of technical challenges such as Transfer Pricing, FX Hedging, currency movements and VAT would all be helpful. Exposure to a wide range of initiatives and the demands of an owner managed, entrepreneurial business would be very useful attributes.

Whilst the role of Financial Accountant will follow a traditional cycle around month end, the ever changing shape of the business and their entrepreneurial nature means that days and weeks are rarely the same. You will be tasked with a number of projects and initiatives, supporting both the Finance Director and Financial Controller with your technical skills and insight. The senior level exposure that you would gain in this role, coupled with the success that they are enjoying within their market, makes this a very interesting brief.
