Description
Are you an experienced accountant who enjoys variety, responsibility, and making a real impact across a business? We're working with a forward-thinking organisation in the manufacturing sector that's looking for an Accountant to take ownership of key financial processes across multiple legal entities.
In this role, you'll lead the month-end close, support internal and external audits, and provide critical insight through variance analysis, reconciliations, and tax reporting. You'll also act as a key player in SAP projects, cash management, and intercompany accounting making this a broad, hands-on role that keeps things interesting. No two days are the same, and your attention to detail and proactive mindset will be highly valued.
You'll be working in a collaborative, fast-paced finance team that partners closely with the wider business, offering plenty of visibility and the chance to shape process improvements. If you're looking for a role with real responsibility, room to grow, and a team that values accuracy, insight, and drive meaning this could be your next great move.
Profile
To thrive in this role, you'll bring solid accounting experience, ideally from a busy, fast-paced environment like manufacturing along with a sharp eye for detail and a proactive approach to problem-solving. You should be confident managing the full month-end close process, preparing accurate financial reports, and handling complex reconciliations across multiple entities.
You'll need to be comfortable working with large data sets and using Excel to a high standard, and experience with SAP (or another ERP system) will be a big plus. Strong knowledge of accounting principles such as GAAP, and experience supporting audits or tax submissions, will help you hit the ground running.
This role suits someone who's either ACCA/CIMA qualified or part-qualified, and who enjoys working independently while also collaborating with colleagues across finance and the wider business. If you take ownership, communicate clearly, and thrive in a role where your input really matters you'll do well here.
