Job Description
Gifford and Partners have been appointed by a fast-growing manufacturing business based in North Yorkshire, with operations across multiple sites. The business continues to scale rapidly through a combination of organic growth and acquisition activity, creating a finance environment that is both challenging and highly rewarding.
The Role
Reporting into the Finance Director and as part of a supportive and capable team, you will play a key part in ensuring the group delivers accurate, compliant and timely reporting across a multi-entity structure.
The position provides a strong mix of:
* Group financial reporting and financial control
* Stat and year-end delivery
* Improvements in reporting processes, controls and systems
* Consolidations and intercompany processes
* Exposure to audit, governance and technical accounting
Candidate Profile

You'll ideally be:
* ACA / ACCA qualified from Big4 or Top10 in commercial audit
* Looking to make your first move from practice (audit or accounts background ideal)
* Confident with statutory reporting and financial statements
* Naturally organised and comfortable working to deadlines
* A clear communicator who can work effectively with non-finance stakeholders
Experience of group reporting or consolidation is beneficial, but not essential. The key is a strong technical grounding and the right mindset.
Why This Opportunity
* Strong first move role into a group finance environment
* PE-backed, international business with a track record of growth
* Exposure to statutory reporting, consolidations, audit and acquisitions
* A finance team with high standards and credibility
* A role that can develop into broader group reporting / financial controller pathways
* Hybrid working: 3 days office / 2 days home
Next Steps
If you're looking for a role that will broaden your technical experience, whilst having a genuine impact on the business, in a progressive role, without losing the rigour you've built in practice, this is well worth a conversation.
