Financial Accounting Manager in Market Rasen

Financial Accounting Manager – Market Rasen – Highly Competitive Salary & Benefits

Are you an experienced Financial Accounting Manager looking for a role where you can genuinely make an impact?

We’re working exclusively with a successful, established international business to recruit a Financial Accounting Manager to lead its UK accounting function.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong accountant who enjoys ownership, leadership and continuous improvement, and who wants the freedom to challenge existing processes and make a real difference.

You’ll lead a team of four Accounts Assistants, taking responsibility for the day-to-day financial accounting function while partnering closely with senior finance colleagues across the wider Group.

What will you be doing?

You’ll have broad ownership across the UK finance function, including

• Leading and developing a team of four, creating a positive, high-performing finance environment
• Taking ownership of all aspects of financial and management accounts reporting
• Leading the preparation and submission of Group reporting packs, ensuring accuracy and deadlines are consistently achieved
• Managing treasury, cashbook and cash flow activities
• Taking the lead on the annual audit, working closely with external auditors and tax advisers
• Preparing statutory accounts and overseeing key financial reconciliations, including intra-group
• Managing tax compliance, pension relationships and royalty accounting
• Working closely with the Controlling team on budgets and forecasts
• Supporting and improving finance systems and reporting
• Identifying opportunities to improve processes, controls and reporting — and, importantly, driving those improvements through to implementation
• Providing guidance and training to both finance and non-finance colleagues

What are we looking for?

We’re looking for someone who combines strong technical accounting skills with leadership ability and a genuine appetite for improvement.

You’ll ideally have

• Qualified Accountant (ACCA/ACA or CIMA) with proven experience in a similar financial accounting environment
• A solid understanding of month-end and management accounts reporting
• Experience leading or managing an audit process
• Experience managing, developing and coaching a finance team
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to financial accuracy
• Confidence working with senior stakeholders and across different areas of the business
• A proactive approach to process improvement, systems and reporting
• Most importantly, we’re looking for someone with energy and initiative — someone who sees a problem and looks for a solution, challenges processes constructively and enjoys making things better

What's on offer?

• Annual bonus and additional profit share bonus
• Pension matched up to 10%
• 25 days' holiday + bank holidays (Additional days for the Christmas shutdown)
• Private medical insurance
• Income protection
• Life assurance
• Personal accident cover
• Training and development opportunities
• Long-service awards
• Hybrid working (2 days from home) and flexible working hours

Why this role?

This isn't simply a role focused on keeping the accounts moving. It's an opportunity to lead a team, own a broad UK accounting function and actively shape how finance operates.

If you're a Financial Accounting Manager who enjoys taking ownership, improving processes and working with a team around you to deliver high-quality results, we'd love to hear from you.
