Head of Financial & Management Reporting

We’re BDO, an accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions businesses need to navigate today’s changing world. Our clients are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high growth businesses that fuel the economy - and the owners and management teams that lead them.

The Business Services and Outsourcing team are essential to meeting our clients' evolving requirements. They deliver long-term, sustainable value to businesses by providing a range of solutions such as accounting, payroll and compliance services. They also play a key role in tying together many of our services across BDO both domestically and internationally.

To succeed in this agile environment, you’ll need to demonstrate excellent problem-solving skills and initiative. In return, you’ll have the opportunity for progression and the chance to develop in one of the industry’s most exciting and varied roles.

Our clients trust us because of the quality of our advice, which grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with clients and building long-lasting relationships. You’ll be someone who can work pro-actively, managing your own tasks, but you’ll also be confident collaborating with others, communicating regularly with senior managers, Directors, and BDO’s Partners to enable us to serve our clients effectively.

As a Manager, you’ll play a key role in leading the team and ensuring the smooth delivery of services to our clients. You’ll manage day-to-day team operations, support senior colleagues, and oversee the review of statutory financial statements, financial reporting for various entities, corporate tax services, and ad-hoc advisory work. You’ll also contribute to strategic growth, coach junior staff, and support business development and commercial performance.

This role offers the chance to build on your financial reporting and technical expertise within a collaborative and supportive team. You’ll receive high-quality training and development to help you succeed.

We work with a wide range of clients, primarily owner-managed and SME businesses, across various sectors. Our work spans UK GAAP and IFRS frameworks, including financial statement preparation and advisory projects.

You’ll be someone with:

• Qualified ACA, ACCA or equivalent.
• Previous experience in a management role.
• Strong working knowledge of UK and international reporting standards (including UK GAAP and UK-adopted IFRS) and related financial reporting requirements.
• Previous experience preparing and reviewing statutory accounts.
• Business development experience - able to contribute to the identification and conversion of opportunities to services.

At BDO, we’ll help you achieve your personal goals and career ambitions, and we have programmes, resources, and frameworks that provide clarity and structure around career development.

Mutual support and respect is one of BDO’s core values and we’re proud of our distinctive, people-centred culture. From informal success conversations to formal mentoring and coaching, we’ll support you at every stage in your career, whatever your personal and professional needs.

We know that collaboration is the key to creating value for our clients and satisfying experiences at work, so we’ve invested in state-of-the-art collaboration spaces in our offices. BDO’s people represent a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and we’ll encourage you to build your network, work alongside others, and share your skills and experiences.

At BDO, we help entrepreneurial businesses to succeed, fuelling the UK economy. Our success is powered by our people, which is why we’re always finding new ways to invest in them. We’ve got a clear purpose, and we’re confident in our future, because we’re adapting and evolving to build on our strengths, ensuring we continue to find the right combination of global reach, integrity and expertise.
