• Prepare first-draft statutory accounts for multiple legal entities.
• Handle VAT return submissions and support on corporation tax.
• Lead training and coaching around technical accounting developments, including IFRS standards.
• Contribute to financial reporting improvements and broader IFRS alignment.
• Coach and support the wider team on process and policy.
• Be a key contact for external audit.

What you'll need:

• ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified.
• Strong technical accounting knowledge, including experience with statutory reporting and financial controls.
• Previous experience working within a group finance function in a larger business, with hands-on involvement in intercompany accounts and reconciliations.
• A proactive, collaborative approach with the ability to coach and influence others.
• The drive and resilience to push through change and improve how things are done.
