Management Accountant

About the role

You report to the Finance Manager and own our numbers: the monthly close, budgeting and forecasting, and tax and compliance. The job is to explain the results, not just produce them — work out what drove them, tell the managers who can act, and follow the change through. There is real project work too: better systems, joined-up data and automated reporting. You will work with managers at every level of the business.

• Prepare consolidated and site-level profit and loss and balance sheet reporting

• Prepare monthly balance sheet reconciliations and resolve reconciling items

• Maintain the general ledger, chart of accounts and classification of expenditure

• Prepare analysis to support pricing, promotional activity and new product decisions

• Report actual results against budget with commentary and recommended action

• Present results to the leadership group and operational managers, and help them act on what the numbers show
