Rare opportunity for a highly ambitious CIMA Part Qualified Accountant to take on a business-facing role within a global manufacturing business. This role has been created with succession planning in mind - it therefore offers real career-making potential with the opportunity to springboard you into a senior position within the medium term and for those who may consider foreign travel the opportunity to work across other global divisions.

Your duties will be varied and will offer the change to genuinely influence business process and decision making. Specifics may include:

*Regular face to face meetings with senior stakeholders across the organisation, presenting and advising around budgets, forecasts and variances
*Project reporting including capital investment analysis
*Production reporting, analysing production costs, labour efficiencies and raw material usage

To be considered for this role you should be actively studying towards CIMA/ACCA, with a logical career path to date and be able to demonstrate a high level of ambition. The business-facing aspect of this role requires you to be a confident communicator, someone who feels that they would be able to challenge and influence senior stakeholders. Strong systems skills and the ability to manipulate large volumes of data is essential and experience within manufacturing is highly desirable.

This is a great career opportunity - a high profile role unusual at the "part qualified level" offering a defined career path within the organisation. You will also enjoy a tremendous benefits package including full study support package, medical cover, generous holiday entitlement and pension contribution.
