Vero Recruitment has been exclusively appointed to recruit a Management Accountant for a growing, investor-backed energy business in Aberdeen.

About our client

Our client is a well-established independent energy business operating critical assets across the UK. Following continued investment and growth, this is an exciting time to join the business. The organisation is entering its next phase of development, creating an excellent opportunity for an ambitious finance professional to join a high-performing team and gain exposure to a broad range of strategic and commercial activities.

With an experienced leadership team, a clear growth strategy and strong financial backing, this is a rare opportunity to join a business where finance is highly valued and plays a key role in shaping commercial decision-making.

The role

Reporting to the Group Financial Controller, the Management Accountant will play an important role within the finance function, supporting high-quality financial reporting, commercial analysis, financial planning and governance activities.

This is a broad, commercially focused position offering significant exposure across the finance function. The successful candidate will work closely with senior stakeholders, supporting business decision-making, improving processes and contributing to strategic initiatives as the organisation continues to evolve.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Preparation of monthly management accounts, including variance analysis, cash flow reporting and insightful commentary for senior management.
  • Supporting month-end and year-end close processes, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting.
  • Managing relationships with outsourced finance providers to ensure the effective delivery of finance activities.

Equally important will be your ability to communicate effectively, build relationships and provide commercial insight beyond the numbers.

The successful candidate will be proactive and comfortable operating within a dynamic environment where they can take ownership, influence outcomes and make a genuine impact.

Experience within the energy sector, capital-intensive industries, or a growing organisation would be advantageous, although the key requirement is the ambition and capability to develop into a broader commercial finance role.

What's on offer?

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a successful, growing business at an exciting stage of its development. You will gain exposure to strategic finance activities, work closely with an experienced leadership team and play an important role in supporting the future direction of the organisation.

Alongside an industry-leading salary and bonus opportunity, our client offers an excellent benefits package including a generous employer pension contribution, private medical insurance, life assurance and hybrid working.
