This assignment will suit an experienced finance professional who can quickly take ownership of month-end reporting across several entities, maintain strong financial controls and work confidently with operational stakeholders.

The role

Key responsibilities will include:

• Preparing monthly management accounts across allocated group entities
• Posting journals and managing accruals and prepayments
• Completing and reviewing balance sheet reconciliations
• Supporting revenue calculations, intercompany accounting and fixed assets
• Producing VAT returns, KPI analysis and additional financial reporting
• Investigating variances and resolving outstanding accounting issues
• Liaising with operational teams to understand activity and its financial impact
• Supporting budgeting, forecasting and cash-flow analysis
• Assisting with year-end audit preparation and auditor queries
• Identifying opportunities to improve and standardise finance processes
• Providing cover and support across the wider management accounting team

The successful candidate

You will ideally have:

• Previous experience producing monthly management accounts within a multi-entity environment
• AAT Level 4, part-qualified or qualified CIMA/ACCA status, or equivalent experience
• Strong balance sheet reconciliation and month-end reporting experience
• A good understanding of accruals, prepayments, intercompany transactions and fixed assets
• Strong analytical and Excel skills
• The ability to work independently and quickly understand existing processes
• A confident, professional approach to working with finance and operational stakeholders
• Immediate or short-notice availability

Experience using Oracle NetSuite or working within an operational, energy, environmental or infrastructure-led business would be advantageous but is not essential.

This is an excellent temporary opportunity to join an ambitious organisation, take ownership of a varied portfolio and support a knowledgeable finance team during an important stage of its development.
