Trinity House Group are exclusively partnered with a long standing client to recruit a Senior Management Accountant role, sitting within a substantial West Midlands based business. The finance function supports a sizeable trading entity alongside group consolidation reporting, giving genuine exposure to both operational finance and group level accounting. The role is based in the West Midlands, with hybrid working and a salary of up to £65,000.
This role has a clearly defined route to Financial Controller, with the current post holder involved in shaping succession into that position as the group's reporting requirements evolve. For those with a more commercial leaning, there's equally a path into business partnering and commercial finance.
You'll take ownership of the monthly management accounts process, act as the go to person for operating cost analysis across a significant P&L, and work closely with functional directors on budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis. There's also meaningful group consolidation work, including intra-group accounting and indebtedness reporting, alongside budget and forecast balance sheet and cash flow production.
The Role
- Lead and coordinate the monthly management accounts process for a trading entity and its group holding structure
- Own the full suite of operating cost lines end to end, covering payroll, supplies and third party services, both P&L and balance sheet
- Produce group consolidated accounts, including intra-group loan, interest and indebtedness reporting
- Business partner functional directors and managers on cost analysis, variance analysis and investment decisions
- Build headcount and departmental cost budgets and forecasts in partnership with HR and operational leaders
- Produce budget and forecast balance sheet and cash flow projections
- Support statutory and regulatory reporting requirements
About You
- Qualified or actively studying (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) with experience gained in a substantial industrial or manufacturing environment
- Confident with general ledger accounting and balance sheet reconciliations
- Comfortable with intra-group and consolidation accounting
- Strong Excel skills to intermediate level or above, with the ability to translate data into clear reporting for senior stakeholders
- A naturally curious operator who challenges the status quo and drives process improvement, rather than someone looking to always do things in the same way
