Key responsibilities will include:

• Own the Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet for designated business unit(s).

• Partner with budget holders and commercial/operational teams to improve understanding of financial performance and support effective decisions.
• Analyse revenue, gross margin, operating costs, and relevant financial and operational KPIs.
• Maintain robust balance sheet controls and reconciliations, investigating and resolving issues promptly.
• Support the Senior Management Accountant with half-year and year-end reporting and audit requirements.
• Review pricing proposals, customer contracts and commercial opportunities, highlighting financial implications and escalating significant risks.
• Work closely with Purchase Ledger and Credit Control to maintain ledger integrity and resolve supplier, customer and transaction queries.

• Develop and improve finance processes, controls, reporting and documentation.

There are some essential skills and experience you will need to have:

• Recent UK management accounting experience, including ownership of a full monthly reporting cycle.
• Strong knowledge of budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis and balance sheet control.
• Working knowledge of current accounting standards, including IFRS, and experience supporting audit requirements.
• Sound commercial awareness with experience of pricing, margin or contract analysis.
• Advanced Excel skills, including financial modelling and analysis of large datasets.
• Experience of ERP/accounting systems; Sage 200 experience is desirable.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
• Clear communication skills with the ability to explain financial information with non-finance colleagues.
• Well organised and able to manage competing priorities and deliver to tight deadlines.
• Experience improving finance processes, controls or reporting.
