Nirvana Search is partnering with a highly successful, Private Equity-backed professional services business to recruit a versatile and hands-on Group Management Accountant.
You will be joining a highly acquisitive and rapidly growing division within the broader group. With a strong pipeline of M&A activity, this is a fast-paced environment where finance plays a critical role in driving and supporting commercial success.
This is a truly broad, all-encompassing position. The business requires a proactive finance professional who is equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves for core accounting tasks as they are delivering high-level reporting to the group.
You will be responsible for:
- End-to-End Accounting: Taking full ownership of the numbers, from core transactional oversight through to the preparation and delivery of full management accounts.
- Core Finance Duties: Managing all month-end processes, including prepayments, accruals, journal entries, and VAT returns.
- M&A Support & Integration: Playing a key role in supporting the division through heavy M&A activity, assisting with the financial integration and onboarding of new acquisitions.
- Data & Process Improvement: Spearheading data cleansing initiatives to ensure accuracy, compliance, and consistency across the division and wider group.
- Group Collaboration: Acting as the primary finance contact for this growing division, while providing robust support and reporting to the wider group finance function.
