Management Accountant in Wokingham

Finance at Montu is not a back office function. It is right in the middle of a business that is growing fast, doing something genuinely meaningful, and building for the long term. If you want a role where you can see the direct impact of your work and grow alongside the organisation, this one is worth a look.

We are looking for a Management Accountant who wants to be part of building something exciting.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for someone who wants more than just a traditional accounting role. You'll have the opportunity to get involved in all things financial control as well as finance team transformation, continuous improvement, decision-making, supporting our European expansion, supporting forecasting and helping shape the future of the Finance function. This is an ideal role for someone who is actively studying towards a professional qualification and wants exposure beyond the usual management accounts cycle.

You will closely with our Financial Controller and have access to our General Manager of Finance. You will gain visibility across the business, and have the opportunity to grow your career as we continue to scale. If you are ambitious, curious, and looking for a role where your ideas are valued just as much as your technical skills, we'd love to hear from you.
