Financial reporting adviser (Financial Reporting & Valuations Team)
Department: Accounting
Employment Type: Permanent
Location: York
Compensation: £25,000 - £30,000 / year
Description
We’re looking for a trainee or part qualified accountant to join our FRAV team in York, Leeds or Sheffield.
This role offers something a little bit different from the norm. If you're inquisitive, analytical and enjoy technical complexity, this could be the move you're looking for.
Joining our Financial Reporting & Valuations (FRAV) team gives you the opportunity to work beyond the basics. You’ll tackle intellectually rewarding work, advise on high-impact financial issues, and collaborate directly with clients and senior stakeholders on important projects.
This role offers a rare mix of technical depth and commercial insight. From listed companies to fast-growing private businesses, you'll help solve complex accounting challenges, support key strategic decisions, and build a niche skill set early in your career.
The Role
There will be lots to get involved with in this role, but examples of what you’ll be working on are:
* Supporting the preparation of group financial statements, including those for listed companies – balancing technical rigour with practical project management.
* Advising on complex accounting matters, including share-based payments and financial instruments.
* Writing technical accounting papers and delivering audit support projects
* Contributing to IFRS conversion projects and supporting IPO readiness work
* Assisting with valuation work, such as share option valuations and purchase price allocations – from research and modelling through to drafting reports
* Supporting the team and wider firm with the implementation of the FRS 102 triennial review.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
To thrive in this role, you’ll need:
* A well-established grounding in audit or accounts preparation.
* A natural curiosity for accounting and business – you enjoy solving problems and want to understand why something works, not just how.
* Clear communication skills, to explain complex matters in a way clients understand.
* A team player mentality, happy to roll up your sleeves to support colleagues when needed.
Whilst not essential, it would be great if you have:
* Some experience of project-based work
* Familiarity with valuations or financial modelling
* An interest in listed company environments or strategic advisory projects
Benefits
The salary range for this role is in the region of £25,000 to £30,000 depending on experience.
* Discretionary, performance related annual bonus.
* 22 days annual leave, plus bank holidays.
* Pension contributions of 5.3% when you contribute 3.2% with further benefits when opting into our salary sacrifice scheme.
* Healthcare cash plan.
* Life cover of 3 x salary.
* Opportunities for career development and professional growth, including study support.
* Paid volunteer days.
