Finance Business Partner / Management Accountant
I am working confidentially with an established organisation in Northampton to recruit a Finance Business Partner / Management Accountant.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of management accounting but equally wants to work closely with operational stakeholders and have a more visible role across the wider business.
The position will combine hands‑on management accounting with genuine business partnering, supporting managers to understand financial performance, manage budgets and make informed commercial decisions.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Preparation and analysis of monthly management accounts
- Budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis
- Working closely with operational managers, providing financial insight and support
- Helping budget holders understand performance, risks and opportunities
- Month‑end accounting including accruals, prepayments and balance sheet reconciliations
- KPI and performance reporting
- Supporting improvements to financial processes, controls and reporting
- Building strong relationships across finance and the wider organisation
About you
You may be professionally qualified (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) or qualified by experience (QBE). The client is deliberately open‑minded on qualification and is much more interested in finding someone with strong management accounting fundamentals who is confident, personable and comfortable engaging with people outside of finance.
You will have solid experience producing management accounts, budgeting and forecasting, alongside exposure to working with operational stakeholders or budget holders.
This could particularly suit an experienced Management Accountant who enjoys the stakeholder‑facing elements of their current role and would like to develop further into a broader business partnering position.
