This individual will be the right-hand person to the leadership team on all things accounting so has brilliant exposure opportunities. Despite being a large and well-recognised brand, the company has retained a close knit and friendly culture so someone who has strong interpersonal skills is essential.

• Being the main point of contact for all technical accounting queries, predominantly in relation to various IFRS/GAAP requirements
• Play a lead role in the Group consolidation process
• Assist with the implementation and roll out of new process and systems as the group grows
• Production & presentation of relevant figures to senior leadership team
• Business Partnering BU leaders across the group to ensure timely accurate and consistent figures are produced.
• Working in conjunction with other finance sub-teams (FP&A, Operational Finance etc.) to ensure synergies are present across the business.
This role has scope to expand its remit quite quickly and for the right individual a path to progress to FD will be visible. The ideal candidate will be ACA/ACCA qualified with circa 2/3 years PQE either in audit or a relatable industry sector.
