About the Role
We are seeking an experienced and commercially minded Senior Management Accountant to join our finance team on a 12-month fixed term contract.

- Planning & Forecasting: Own the annual budgeting and rolling forecast processes, working closely with heads of department to model business drivers.

- Cash Flow Management: Oversee cash flow forecasting, working capital monitoring, and balance sheet reconciliations.
- Process & Controls Improvement: Review and enhance existing financial reporting processes, controls, and management information (MI) systems.
- Audit & Compliance: Support year-end audit preparation and ensure compliance with relevant accounting standards.
