Assistant Management Accountant + Study Support
Bury
£30,000 – £35,000
“In this role, YOU shape your future.” – Straight from the FD’s mouth.
Forget a “stepping-stone” role – this one’s been designed to get you to the top of your game.
Newly created and built with growth in mind, this is your chance to slot right into the heart of a high-impact finance team.
You’ll be the bridge between two bright, capable juniors (who don’t need babysitting but do need a mentor) and a Management Accountant who’s ready to hand over more responsibility.
This isn’t just about crunching numbers. This is about becoming the go-to, the problem-solver, the future leader.
What makes this role a game-changer?
1. Real influence from day one.
Be the right hand to both the MA and FD. Think: full exposure to monthly accounts, board pack prep, and strategic input. Not in 5 years. Now.
2. Mentorship without red tape.
Guide, support, and inspire the juniors – no appraisals, no bureaucracy, just impact.
3. Fast-track progression.
This company promotes from within. When the MA moves up (and she will), you’re next in line. The Board already has their eyes on future leaders.
4. Small team, BIG opportunity.
In a lean, agile finance function, nothing is off-limits. You’ll get stuck in with everything, from high-level strategy to rolling up your sleeves when needed – because that’s how you grow.
5. Leadership access.
Sit in senior leadership meetings, pitch ideas, make noise. You won’t just observe success – you’ll help shape it.
This role needs more than just transactional experience – you will need to have helped produce management accounts and month-end close; ideally AAT Qualified or on the pathway with ACCA/ CIMA.
