If you're looking for a role where you can make a real impact, shape financial processes, and become a key partner in driving smarter decision‑making, this is one you'll want to explore. This is a genuinely rewarding role for someone who thrives on ownership, variety and getting stuck into a business that values continuous improvement.
  • Great international business
  • Amazing opportunity with a welcoming and friendly team

About Our Client



You'll be joining an established and highly respected manufacturing organisation known for its innovation, engineering excellence and commitment to quality. The business is growing, investing in new systems and processes, and empowering its people to lead meaningful change.

It's a place where you're not just another number - you're part of a collaborative community that celebrates ideas, nurtures development, and genuinely cares about its people. Expect a supportive culture, strong leadership, and a sense of pride in the products they create.

Job Description



This is a broad and hands-on Management Accountant role where no two days look the same. You'll have the space to take ownership, influence improvements, and develop your financial expertise within a dynamic operational environment.

Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Preparing monthly management accounts and delivering insightful commentary
  • Supporting budgeting and forecasting processes across multiple cost centres
  • Business partnering with operations, engineering and production teams
  • Analysing manufacturing variances and identifying opportunities for cost efficiencies
  • Maintaining balance sheet reconciliations and supporting month-end processes
  • Improving reporting tools, dashboards and financial processes
  • Getting involved in system enhancements and continuous improvement projects
  • Providing ad-hoc analysis to support commercial and operational decisions



It's a fantastic role for someone who enjoys blending numbers with real-world impact and likes stepping outside the "traditional accounting" bubble.

The Successful Applicant



You don't need to tick every box - what matters most is your attitude, curiosity and appetite to learn. You'll thrive here if you have:

  • Strong foundational accounting skills (QBE or part qualified)
  • Good analytical ability and comfort working with operational data
  • A proactive mindset and a willingness to improve processes
  • Confidence partnering with non‑finance colleagues
  • The ability to prioritise, problem‑solve and work with autonomy
  • A genuine interest in understanding how a manufacturing business works



If you enjoy asking "why?", spotting trends, and making things better - you'll fit right in.

What's on Offer

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package
  • Study support (if required) and ongoing personal development
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Additional benefits including retail discounts and death in service benefit
  • Hybrid working - 3 days office and flexible working within option to finish at 1PM on a Friday
  • The chance to shape processes and influence change
  • Supportive leadership who genuinely invest in people
  • A collaborative team culture where your ideas will be heard
  • Long-term career opportunities as the business continues to grow
