About the role
We're looking for a Senior Accountant / Assistant Controller to take ownership of core accounting for our UK and European entities, reporting into the Financial Controller and working closely with the wider US-based group finance team. This is an excellent first move out of practice for a qualified or finalist accountant who wants real commercial exposure, ownership, and a fast-paced, private equity-backed environment to grow in – without being a small cog in a huge machine.
You'll be the day-to-day owner of the European numbers, with genuine scope to shape local processes as the business scales, while working within a broader global finance structure.
What you'll do
- Owning month-end close for UK and European entities, including journals, accruals, prepayments and balance sheet reconciliations
- Preparing statutory accounts and supporting audits under IFRS across multiple jurisdictions
- Managing intercompany transactions and reconciliations between European entities and the wider global group
- Partnering with the Financial Controller and US-based group finance team on reporting, consolidation support, and technical accounting matters
- Maintaining and improving controls and processes within NetSuite as the group scales
- Supporting VAT and other statutory/tax filings across UK and EU territories, working with local advisors where needed
- Getting involved in ad hoc projects: system improvements, acquisition integrations, and process automation
- Acting as a key point of contact for auditors, tax advisors, and other external stakeholders
