Management accountant jobs we recruit for

  • Interim Management Accountant
  • Management Accountant
     

Key management accountant tasks

The varied tasks of a management accountant can be spread across the different areas of financial services. Management accountants are required to analyse financial performance, monitor spend and budgets, and prepare financial statements. They are expected to perform internal audits, forecast, so that the business can plan its strategy, and plan future spending. From their performance analysis and preparation of financial statements, they’d then be expected to recommend ways of reducing costs and maximising profits.
 
Based on the information at their disposal a management accountant will play a significant part in streamlining operations and processes where the profit margins have been lower than expected. If they are unable to streamline, they have the option of exploring new revenue streams for the business. Management accountants constantly look at trends and all relevant data to drive the business to success.
 

Key management accountant skills

Management accountants must have strong communication and analytical skills because they will have to analyse data regularly and be able to clearly explain their findings to operational staff, directors and stakeholders. They should have strong IT and time management skills, due to the fact that they’ll often be working to tight deadlines, as well as on complex finance systems. They must possess an aptitude in numeracy and have a keen eye for detail, both of which are required to consistently perform well in their jobs. 
 

Qualifications and experience

Anyone thinking of becoming a management accountant will have to complete training with one of these professional accountancy bodies: Association of Certified Chartered Accountants (ACCA) Institute of Financial Accountants (IFA) and the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA).
 
Most who take the management accountant route tend to complete training with CIMA where they can train on the job with a combination of studying and practical experience.
 
Although most who take the management accountancy route will focus on reaching finance director level, some can also be propelled to the position of corporate treasurer, corporate controller or chief financial officer (CFO).
