Management Accountant

Macclesfield (minimum 1 day per week in the office)

£35,000 - £45,000 per annum

 

Team, Respect, Ownership, Quality, Continuous Improvement…

Bioscript is at a fascinating period in our growth. Our rapid expansion, including acquisition of new subsidiary companies, means the work of the finance team is more important than ever. We need a new member of the team to support the additional work the team has taken on. We are looking for a good all-rounder who offers flexibility to support the business wherever needed. The ideal candidate will be a qualified accountant with strong technical skills and commercial acumen who is as comfortable working with our delivery teams discussing the progress of a client project as they are modelling next year’s resourcing requirements in Excel.

Our agency covers the full range of medical communications, including publications, medical meetings and digital programmes. Also offering specialist health economic and regulatory writing services, we provide many opportunities for personal and professional development. Bioscript is independently owned and has grown steadily since its inception in 2005, adding new clients and talented new staff every year. We are proud that clients we worked with in the beginning continue to work with us today.

  • Produce complex flexible models in MS Excel to support business decision-making
  • Perform relevant reconciliations (e.g. bank accounts, accruals), undertaking investigation work to resolve differences and producing supporting schedules as required.
     

Requirements

Our successful Management Accountant will have:

  • Previous experience of working across multi-disciplinary teams
  • An understanding of the project lifecycle and key financial monitoring throughout a project lifecycle
