Elevation are excited to be partnering with a growing, multi-entity infrastructure business in West Yorkshire to appoint a Group Reporting Manager. This is a key role within a values-led organisation that has built a strong reputation in its market and continues to invest in both its people and its systems. With a clear sense of direction and a supportive senior leadership team, the business is looking for someone who can take real ownership of group reporting and bring rigour, clarity and continuous improvement to the finance function. Reporting into the Financial Controller and with exposure to the Board, you'll take responsibility for delivering timely and accurate month end reporting across the group. You'll oversee balance sheet integrity, lead on statutory accounts and corporation tax, and play a central role in preparing pre and post-acquisition balance sheets, including purchase price accounting. You'll also support audit processes and ensure procedures and controls are well documented and operating effectively. This isn't just about producing numbers. You'll manage and develop an Assistant Management Accountant, ensuring deadlines are met and standards remain high, while also reviewing existing processes and identifying smarter, more efficient ways of working. The business values initiative, so you'll be trusted to flag risks, suggest improvements and take ownership of projects that strengthen the wider finance function. We're looking to speak with fully qualified accountants (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) who are technically strong, comfortable with statutory reporting and tax, and confident operating in a group environment. Previous experience managing a small team and leading month end processes will be important, as will a proactive mindset and the ability to communicate clearly with both finance and non-finance stakeholders. The role offers the opportunity to join a business with a clear vision, strong culture and genuine appetite for continuous improvement. If you're interested in learning more, please apply or contact Rob Simpson for more information.
