An exceptional opportunity has opened up within a multi-national PLC who are looking to recruit a Financial Accountant. This is a career-defining role for an ACA-qualified accountant looking to make their first or second move from accountancy practice into a high-impact industry position.
Reporting directly to an experienced and highly engaging Finance Director, you will operate as the clear number two within the finance function — gaining direct exposure to senior leadership and meaningful commercial influence from day one.
The Opportunity
This is far more than a technical reporting role. You’ll be embedded in the operational and strategic heartbeat of the business, with visibility across the full finance cycle.
Key responsibilities include:
- Preparation of monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS
- Ownership of the month-end close process, ensuring timely and accurate reporting
- Budgeting, forecasting, and detailed variance analysis to support strategic decisions
- Liaising with external auditors and managing statutory and internal compliance
- Strengthening financial controls and driving process improvement initiatives
You’ll gain exposure to group-level reporting, commercial analysis, and senior stakeholder interaction — making this an outstanding stepping stone into broader finance leadership roles.
Why This Role Stands Out
- PLC environment with strong career progression pathways
- Modern offices with excellent motorway access
- Direct mentorship from an accomplished Finance Director
- Broad exposure across technical, commercial, and strategic finance
- Attractive salary and comprehensive benefits package
Who This Will Suit
- ACA qualified (or very close to qualification)
- Technically strong with excellent Excel and Data skills
- Ambitious, commercially curious, and keen to take ownership
- Confident engaging with senior stakeholders
If you’re ready to accelerate your career in a high-visibility role with genuine progression potential, this could be the move that defines your next chapter. In return you can expect to receive a competitive salary, company pension, annual bonus and on-site parking.
