Management Accountant - Growing Engineering Group £35k - £45K
We're currently working with a well-established and rapidly expanding engineering and manufacturing group that's looking to bring a Management Accountant into their finance team. This is a fantastic opportunity if you're someone who enjoys variety in your role, likes being close to the business, and wants to make a real impact as the company continues to grow.
What's the role about?
You'd be taking ownership of the monthly management accounts, so it's hands-on and high visibility. They're looking for someone who's confident with reporting, reconciliations, and cashflow, but who's also happy to roll up their sleeves and get stuck into the day to day. It's a great blend of transactional oversight and commercial insight.
A quick snapshot of what you'll be doing:
- Producing accurate monthly management accounts and KPI reporting
- Posting journals, accruals, and prepayments
- Reconciling balance sheets (including intercompany accounts)
- Posting daily bank transactions and keeping the cashflow forecast updated
- Helping with supplier payments, purchase/sales ledger reconciliations
- Supporting the budgeting and forecasting process
- Getting involved with year-end, audits, and ad hoc reporting when needed
What are they looking for?
- AAT qualified or part-qualified CIMA/ACCA actively studying
- Someone with a background in engineering or manufacturing would be ideal but not essential
- Strong on Excel and comfortable with system based reporting
- Detail focused and naturally analytical
- Experience with Sage 200 and/or QuickBooks would be a plus
Why it's a great move:
This is a business that's growing fast, and they've got ambitious plans. You'd be joining at the perfect time to help shape how finance supports that growth. You'll be working closely with an experienced FC who's keen to mentor and develop the right person.
