Management Accountant

Management Accountant | £35,000 - £40,000 | Stapleford | Flexible Hours Available

Looking to take the next step in your finance career while having variety in your role? This is your chance to join a growing SME that combines a close-knit, supportive team environment with exciting challenges across finance, payroll, and HR.

About This Role

As a Management Accountant, you'll work closely with the Head of Finance, taking ownership of key areas like fixed assets, month-end processes, and payroll. You'll also support process improvements and get involved in wider business activities, from HR administration to improving operational efficiencies. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, thrives in a smaller team, and is eager to contribute beyond traditional finance duties.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage accruals, prepayments, and fixed asset registers, including annual audits.
• Oversee accounts for the business's international division and customer deposits.
• Update and share key financial reports with senior management.
• Reconcile service and software contracts and support annual pricing updates.
• Raise stage invoices and follow up on payments to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
• Provide cover for team members during holidays and assist with audits.
• Prepare delivery paperwork and commercial invoices.
• Assist with monthly payroll processing and employee setup on systems.
• Support HR-related queries and administration, working closely with external partners.
• Contribute to process improvement initiatives and assist with finance team queries.

What We're Looking For

• Part-qualified CIMA/ACCA (or equivalent) with hands-on experience in finance.
• Strong Excel and Microsoft Office skills.
• A proactive and confident personality who thrives in an SME environment.
• Willingness to get involved in non-finance tasks, from arranging events to process improvements.
• Bonus points for experience in manufacturing or small team setups, but not essential.

What's In It For You?

• Salary of £35,000 - £40,000 (depending on experience)
• Bonus on exam completion and annual company wide bonus
• Study support, including time out of work, to help you achieve your qualifications.
• Flexible working hours available (34-40 hours per week) to suit your lifestyle.
• Additional benefits, including discretionary bonuses and life assurance.
• A varied, engaging role where no two days are the same, and your contributions matter.
