Commercial Accountant | Preston | £40,000 - £50,000
The Opportunity
Are you recently qualified CIMA / ACA / ACCA and looking for a step away from standard management accounting / financial reporting and into fully fledged commercial accounting and business partnering?
We are partnering with one of the North West’s fastest growing businesses, an agile group currently circa £20m turnover.
They are looking for a highly ambitious individual to join them as Finance Business Partner / Commercial Accountant. Your remit is not month end. You remit is not stat accounts. It’s not cashflows. Its certainly not VAT returns….
Your focus is added value project accounting – working really closely with the non finance managers across all areas of the business. Your main focus in summary is getting under the skin of the bottlenecks and understanding the drivers of cost, growth, margins and profitability.
You’ll be bridging the gap between finance and non finance teams and developing key MI that shines a clear light on where improvements can be made and where things can be optimised. It suits a proactive and commercially savvy newly qualified accountant.
You’ll ideally have a natural interest in business and an ability to ‘bring the numbers to life’.
It’s a young, vibrant, agile and massively aspirational business with highly ambitious owners (who have an enviable track record of success when it comes to growing businesses)…
You’ll have an incredible springboard and there is major scope for rapid career development.
You need:
- To have completed CIMA or equivalent recently.
- To have a solid foundation of core accounting and analytical skills.
- A strong academic record (probably a 2.1 degree / 1st).
- Excellent communication skills.
- Drive, ambition, keenness to learn – and a great sense of humour! It’s a relaxed but focused environment that is fun to be in. You’ll be working for an FD at a relatively early stage of his career and the role suits someone who wants to make a difference and progress quickly.
- You’ll be thrown into the deep end to some degree but there is also bags of support, mentoring and coaching on hand.
Fast track opportunity for someone recently qualified.
