Management Accountant - Transparent Recruitment Solutions Ltd : Job Details

Transparent 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 have a lively and outgoing character, and someone who always takes 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.
• Assessing and updating overhead recovery rates.

• Management reporting on profitability, sales, stock and factory performance on a monthly and weekly basis.
• Producing and reporting on annual budgets for the business.
• Providing financial support to Commercial & Operational Management
• Reviewing Operational KPIs, including labour efficiency and material variances
• Provide product costings for all existing/on-going products, and new products/tenders
• Analysing and presenting CAPEX and OPEX applications.
• Identifying areas for cost savings.
• 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 part qualified (ACCA/CIMA) or be 'qualified by experience’. Strong MS Excel skills are a must, as are strong IT skills, ideally with exposure to ERP systems. Above all, your desire to learn and be part of a cohesive team is key. There will be a need to visit another site twice a month to ensure operational collaboration.

As a 'stand-alone’ role, it is vital that you have a 'can-do’ attitude and are not afraid to ask questions. You will need to be a self-starter and be adept at problem-solving and solution-finding.

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. This role offers hybrid working; 3 days in the office, 2 working from home.

If you fit the above criteria, and this sounds like an exciting opportunity, please contact Samantha Harris immediately.
