An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Management Accountant to join a growing international business based in Leeds.

This is a highly visible role that offers far more than traditional month-end reporting. You'll work closely with stakeholders across the business, providing meaningful financial insight, supporting strategic decision-making, and helping to drive continuous improvement initiatives.

The position offers a strong blend of financial reporting, analysis, forecasting and business partnering, making it an excellent opportunity for someone looking to broaden their commercial exposure and take the next step in their finance career.

  • Delivering financial analysis and insight to support operational and commercial decision-making
  • Assisting with month-end and year-end close processes
  • Maintaining strong financial controls and ensuring compliance with internal procedures
  • Building relationships with stakeholders across the business to support performance improvement
  • Supporting audit requirements and statutory reporting processes
  • Identifying opportunities to improve finance processes and enhance reporting efficiency

About You

We're looking for an ambitious finance professional who is keen to develop within a commercially focused environment.

You will ideally have:

  • ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification, or be actively studying towards qualification
  • Previous experience in a Management Accountant or Assistant Management Accountant role
  • Strong understanding of management accounts preparation and month-end processes
  • Excellent Excel skills and confidence working with finance systems
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
  • The ability to communicate effectively with both finance and non-finance stakeholders
  • A proactive approach and a desire to improve processes
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities

Salary & Benefits

  • Salary up to £55,000
  • Hybrid working 5days onsite
  • Competitive benefits package
  • Modern Leeds office location
  • Exposure to senior stakeholders across the business
  • Opportunity to develop strong business partnering skills
  • Involvement in process improvement and finance transformation initiatives
  • Long-term career development opportunities within a growing international organisation

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This role offers the perfect balance between technical accounting and commercial involvement. It's an excellent opportunity for someone looking to move beyond producing numbers and become a true business partner, influencing decisions and contributing to the ongoing success of a growing organisation.

For ambitious accountants seeking broader exposure, increased responsibility and clear development opportunities, this represents an outstanding next career move.
