Management Accountant in Reading

We’re recruiting a hands‑on, commercially savvy Management Accountant to join a close-knit, collaborative team and play a key role in shaping the financial heartbeat of the business. This is a fantastic opportunity for a proactive, highly organised finance professional who enjoys getting under the skin of a business and making a real impact.

You’ll have end-to-end ownership of the day-to-day finance function, including setting up and managing Xero across the group and its subsidiary companies. Your work will underpin strong cashflow management, insightful reporting and confident decision-making.

While you’ll work closely with and have the backing of senior leadership, this role offers genuine autonomy and responsibility, making it ideal for someone comfortable running the finance function independently and keen to be a trusted advisor to the business.

Key Responsibilities

• Own Xero across the group
• Migrate subsidiary/SPV accounts from Excel into Xero
• Deliver insightful management accounts
• Maintain accurate records to support cashflow forecasting
• Monitor project spend, investor flows and payment timing
• Manage supplier, developer and investor payments
• Liaise with external accountants and payroll providers
• Support budgeting, forecasting and financial analysis
• Enhance financial processes and controls as the business grows

Experience required

• Part‑qualified or qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
• Commercially minded with strong business awareness
• Organised, dependable and comfortable owning your remit
• Approachable, collaborative team player

This is a full time, office based role with the benefit of free parking onsite.
