Are you an experienced Group Financial Accountant who enjoys variety, autonomy, and working closely with senior stakeholders?
We're recruiting on behalf of a successful international business seeking an accomplished finance professional to provide key cover while the current postholder is seconded onto a major ERP implementation programme.
This is far more than a business-as-usual reporting role. You'll take ownership of the Group's core financial control activities while working closely with the Financial Controller, senior leadership team, international finance teams, and the wider project team. You'll also have the opportunity to contribute to the ERP project, making this an excellent assignment for someone who enjoys combining technical accounting with business partnering and process improvement.

About You
You'll be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with previous Group Finance or Financial Accounting experience within a multi-entity organization. You'll be technically strong, comfortable managing competing priorities, and equally confident producing high-quality financial reporting as you are building relationships across the business.
Experience of group consolidations, balance sheet control, cash forecasting, and external audit is essential. Exposure to ERP implementations or finance transformation projects would be highly advantageous.
This is an outstanding opportunity to join a collaborative finance team where you'll play a visible role across the business, gain exposure to a significant systems implementation, and make a genuine impact during an important period of change.
