If you like your work varied and your environment autonomous, keep reading.

• Owning full accounts-to-balance-sheet processing for two of the group's entities - journals, GL, reconciliations, management accounts

Operating in a fast-paced production environment, the business offers the opportunity to get close to operations and influence how performance, profitability and investment decisions are made.

This is not a back-office reporting role. You will sit close to trading, buying and planning, linking stock, margin and cash to the numbers that drive real decisions. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will have genuine ownership of the finance function in a business that moves fast and expects finance to keep pace.

What you will be doing:

• Prepare EMP201, VAT and EMP501 submissions
• Prepare annual budgets, rolling forecasts and cash flow forecasts
• Lead the annual audit pack through to signed financial statements
• Supervise and develop the finance team

Some accountants process the numbers. Others want to know that the numbers are right, understand what sits behind them, spot when something doesn’t make sense and take ownership of fixing it.

We’re looking for the second kind.

This Financial Accountant opportunity will suit someone who gets genuine satisfaction from a clean reconciliation, an accurate set of management accounts and a finance function that runs the way it should.

You’ll have your hands across the accounting function — from journals, reconciliations and reporting to tax, VAT, budgets and the annual audit. It’s a role for someone who likes responsibility, enjoys solving discrepancies and doesn’t need to be chased to get things over the line.

You’ll make your mark by:

• Keeping the financial information accurate, complete and reliable
• Preparing monthly management accounts, reports, budgets, commentaries and financial statements
• Getting into the detail of daily and monthly reconciliations and resolving discrepancies
• Taking ownership of tax and VAT calculations, returns and compliance requirements
• Maintaining strong financial controls and accurate accounting records
• Preparing and verifying payments and supporting documentation
• Coordinating the annual financial audit
• Keeping a close eye on income and expenditure
• Working confidently with management, colleagues, clients and other stakeholders
• Helping coordinate the activities of accounting clerical staff
