Job Description
If you're a management accountant who'd rather spend the month on costings and data than on VAT returns and ledgers, read on.
This role sits within FP&A at an internationally recognised manufacturer of luxury sailing yachts, based on the Norfolk Broads. Each build is long, bespoke and complex, and your job is to track what each one really costs.
It's closer to project accounting than traditional management accounting. There's no VAT, no invoice processing and no credit control. You'll focus on boat production costs:
- gross profit reporting by build
- WIP and revenue recognition
- materials, labour and committed-cost variances
- stock usage
You'll also keep the ERP data clean enough to trust, and when a number doesn't look right you'll dig into it. You'll then explain it to colleagues in production and procurement, not just to finance.
You'll report to the Finance Planning & Analysis Manager in a settled, supportive team. Manufacturing or project costing experience will give you a real head start.
You'll also need strong Excel skills, including lookups, pivots and Power Query, and a CIMA, ACCA or similar qualification.
The pattern is hybrid, with three days in the office and two at home, and you agree which days with your manager. Part-time would also be considered for the right person.
