I am currently working with a very exciting FMCG company based on the outskirts of Ashford.  They are looking to recruit a Management Accountant who will be in charge of setting up and overseeing the whole Management Accounting Function for the company.  This is a really exciting opportunity

Some of the responsibilities for the role will include:
  • Analysing and commentary of monthly management accounts and investigation of variances.
  • Management reporting on profitability, sales, stock and factory performance on a monthly and weekly basis.
  • Producing and reporting on annual budgets for the business.
  • Providing financial support to Commercial & Operational Management
  • Reviewing Operational KPIs (including labour efficiency and material variances)
  • Providing product costings for all existing/on-going products, and new products / tenders.
  • Analysing and presenting CAPEX and OPEX applications.
  • Identifying areas for cost savings.
  • Learning the ERP system in order to help support the factory in continuous development.
  • Assessing and updating overhead recovery rates.
  • Assisting in the negotiation of operational contracts
  • Creating and analysing ad-hoc reports to support Department Heads

The ideal candidate for this role will be a dynamic and entrepreneurial Management Accountant with a background in either FMGC or Manufacturing.  Ideally you would be a fully qualified accountant (CIMA, ACA, ACCA), but they are also willing to consider Finalists and candidates that are QBE, especially if you have a relevant background.
