Senior Manager - Sustainability & Financial Reporting
Edinburgh or Glasgow | Hybrid Working | Circa £72,000 + Benefits Allowance
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Senior Manager to join a growing professional services team supporting clients across the Financial Services sector. This role has been created in response to increasing demand for sustainability and regulatory reporting expertise and offers the chance to help shape and develop a growing capability area within an established advisory practice. Whilst sustainability reporting forms part of the opportunity, the successful candidate does not need to be an ESG specialist. Strong financial reporting expertise and leadership capability are considered the most important requirements.
The Role
Working as part of a senior leadership team, you will help lead client engagements, develop team capability and support the growth of a specialist reporting and advisory offering. You will work with a broad range of Financial Services clients and have the opportunity to contribute across sustainability reporting, regulatory reporting, governance, and wider risk-related projects. This is a highly visible role with responsibility for leading people, managing client relationships, and helping shape the future direction of the team.
