Are you a newly qualified accountant looking for a role with real ownership, senior-level exposure, and an interesting business behind the numbers?
We’re recruiting a Management Accountant to join an ambitious organisation operating within the TV & Entertainment space based in the heart of Glasgow. Working closely with the Finance Director and senior leadership, you’ll sit at the heart of a fast-moving, project-led business, taking ownership of management accounting/reporting while gaining a strong understanding of the commercial and operational activity driving performance.
It’s a broad role with plenty of visibility. You’ll own key reporting processes, support senior decision-making, manage a Finance/AP Assistant, and gain exposure across projects, corporate reporting, audit, and wider finance. For a recently qualified accountant, it offers the opportunity to build commercial experience, broaden your remit, and take on meaningful responsibility early in your post-qualified career.
