Form of workTransparent has been asked to support a growing business in the recruitment of a Management Accountant for their UK Finance Team. This is a stand-alone role, so you will need to take a proactive approach to the business and the role itself.
Reporting into the Finance Director of a £130m turnover business, your areas of responsibility will include the following:
- Preparation, analysis, and commentary of monthly management accounts, including review and preparation of balance sheet reconciliations.

- Learn the ERP system in order to help support the factory in continuous development.
- Assisting in the negotiation of operational contracts
- Creation and analysis of ad-hoc reports to support Department Heads
The ideal candidate will be either fully qualified (CIMA, ACCA or equivalent) or be 'qualified by experience’ coupled with relevant sector experience, i.e. FMCG/manufacturing. Strong MS Excel skills are a must, as are strong IT skills, ideally with exposure to ERP systems. Above all, your sector background is key. Recent experience of working in a manufacturing environment is advantageous.
As a 'stand-alone’ role, it is vital that you have a 'can-do’ attitude and are happy to ask the relevant questions whilst being a self-starter.
In return, you will be rewarded with a competitive base salary and the chance to work in a high-growth business, offering stability and a long-term future. In addition, there is a bonus scheme which is company and KPI related.
