The role
Management Accountant | Military Charity | London Hybrid | Up to circa £45,000 FTC (Permanent Potential)
Our client is one of the UKs most respected military charities, with over 140 years of history supporting veterans and service leavers into meaningful civilian careers. They are looking for a Management Accountant to join a small, experienced finance team at their London headquarters.
The Role
Reporting to the Head of Finance, you will take ownership of monthly management accounts, budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis. You will work closely with Directors, operational managers, and the fundraising team to monitor funding streams, prepare audit-ready financial statements, and support the ongoing improvement of finance processes and systems.
This is a hybrid role with a minimum of two days per week at the London office. The position is initially offered on a fixed-term basis with a strong view to permanence for the right candidate.
What We Are Looking For
You will be a qualified or part-qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with demonstrable experience in management accounting. Experience counts for a great deal here, and applications from strong candidates who are still completing their studies are welcome. You will be comfortable producing management accounts to a tight deadline, presenting clear financial narratives to non-finance stakeholders, and working with a degree of autonomy in a values-led environment.
Experience in the charity or not-for-profit sector is desirable, as is familiarity with Xero. A working knowledge of VAT and Gift Aid would also be an advantage.
This is a rewarding role for someone who wants their finance skills to have genuine impact in an organisation with purpose at its core
