We love hard-working and talented people with a can-do attitude and a passion for what they do.
We’re looking for a Financial Accountant to join our finance team in a fast-paced retail and e-commerce environment.
This is a broad and hands-on role with real ownership across core accounting areas, from ledgers and cash to month-end and reporting. You’ll play a key role in ensuring the integrity of financial data, supporting business decisions, and continuously improving processes as the business scales.
Working closely with the Lead Financial Accountant, you’ll also partner with stakeholders across the business, giving you strong exposure to the commercial side of finance.

* Variance analysis with clear, insightful commentary
* Owning selected cost centres, partnering with budget holders to review spend and challenge where appropriate
* Supporting cashflow forecasting through accurate reporting of actuals
* Ensuring accurate intercompany accounting across entities
* Managing statutory payments including VAT and PAYE
* Supporting audit processes and maintaining strong financial controls
* Driving process improvements and supporting ongoing ERP development and enhancements
About You
You’re an accountant who is confident in the fundamentals but also keen to add value beyond the numbers.
* Part-qualified or newly qualified (ACCA / CIMA / ACA)
* Solid experience across financial accounting, month-end, and reconciliations
* Background in retail or e-commerce is highly advantageous
* Strong systems experience (ideally Microsoft Business Central)
