A leading technology sector client with global reach and exciting growth plans currently underway is seeking a Senior Financial Accountant to join their team in a newly created role. This dynamic client is presently appraising several acquisition prospects and leading the way in industry innovation. A very vibrant environment to join with excellent career exposure, coupled with a notably friendly office environment with excellent flexible / hybrid working.
Reporting directly to a Senior Finance Manager (ex PWC) with dotted line to the FC and CFO, this person will be responsible for managing the purchase ledger team which consists of a PL Manager and 5 PL Controllers.
