Job Description

We’re a fast-growing group of businesses (currently ~£10m turnover, on track to double within the next year). We need a Management Accountant who doesn’t just want to crunch numbers - but wants to step into the fire, handle big responsibilities, and build a career that could fast-track into Financial Director.

If you’re ambitious, hungry for growth, and ready for more than “just another role”, this could be the defining move in your career.

Why This Role?

  • Direct access to the board. You won’t be buried in spreadsheets; you’ll be influencing decisions at the very top.
  • Hands-on experience. You’ll be leading weekly cash calls, delivering management accounts across multiple entities, and helping to shape the financial strategy of a group that’s scaling at speed.
  • A launchpad to FD. We’ll invest the time and training to help you grow into a Finance Director role as the group expands.
  • Real impact. This isn’t about maintaining the status quo - it’s about building the financial foundations of a group that’s going to double in size.

This is not for someone who wants a quiet life. This is for someone who wants responsibility, growth, and the chance to forge their future.

What You’ll Do (The Big Stuff)

  • Own group financial strategy and governance.
  • Chair weekly cash flow calls (with FC support).
  • Deliver management accounts across multiple entities every month.
  • Build forecasts, budgets, and variance analysis that influence real decisions.
  • Sign off VAT returns and oversee compliance.
  • Support acquisitions with financial modelling and light due diligence.
  • Present at monthly board meetings and provide strategic recommendations.

Who You Are

  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA).
  • 2-5 years’ post-qualification experience.
  • Excited by growth, complexity, and responsibility.
  • Able to work at pace, with accuracy and ownership.
  • Hungry to step up into leadership.

What’s In It For You

  • Remote-first role with travel to group companies.
  • Mentorship and training to accelerate your career trajectory.
  • Exposure to high-growth, high-impact projects that most accountants never see.
  • A genuine pathway to becoming a Financial Director.

Bottom Line: If you’re looking for a safe, steady role – this isn’t it.
But if you’re ready to step up, take ownership, and grow with a business that’s scaling at speed – this could be the biggest career move you’ll ever make.
