Job Description

Management Accountant Leeds Up to £55,000 DOE

This is a newly strengthened role within a growing, private equity-backed business operating in the home solutions and energy space. The finance team is evolving to support scale, and this role sits right in the middle of that, taking ownership of core processes and helping make them work properly day-to-day.

It's not a "reporting-only" role. It's for someone who likes getting into the detail, improving how things are done, and seeing the impact of that across the business. You'll be fully office based giving you the opportunity to build relationships with the wider business.

What you'll be doing

  • Owning month-end close end-to-end, making sure it runs properly and on time
  • Producing management accounts with meaningful commentary (not just numbers)
  • Balance sheet reconciliations, journals, accruals and prepayments
  • Investigating variances and actually following things through
  • Supporting group reporting and audit
  • Working with systems (NetSuite) and improving how finance uses data
  • Identifying and fixing inefficient or manual processes
  • Partnering with non-finance teams to make sure processes land properly

What's in it for you?

  • Proper ownership - not just assisting someone else's month-end
  • A business that's growing and changing, not standing still
  • Backing from a larger group, but still with pace locally
  • Exposure across the business, not sat in a silo
  • Opportunity to improve things rather than inherit "that's how we've always done it"

What success looks like

  • Month-end runs smoothly without firefighting
  • Clear, reliable numbers the business can use
  • Processes that are simpler, cleaner and scalable
  • Finance seen as helpful, not a blocker

Benefits

  • 30 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Private medical
  • Pension matched up to 6%
  • Life cover
  • Ongoing development and progression
  • Regular socials

If you're someone who enjoys getting stuck into processes and making them better, this is worth a look.
