Permanent Full-time Hybrid

Tired of the same month-end grind? Ready to actually see the impact of your work?

This isn't your typical Management Accountant role. You won't be stuck behind the same four walls churning out reports - you'll be working directly with clients, owning your portfolio, and helping businesses make smarter decisions.

With a mix of office, home, and client-site working, this role offers real variety, autonomy, and the chance to make a genuine commercial impact.

What's in it for you?
  • Hybrid working (office, home & client sites - the best of all worlds)
  • Your own client portfolio - real ownership, real impact
  • Mileage allowance for travel
  • Generous holiday + pension
  • Laptop provided for flexible working
  • Regular team socials (because culture matters)
What you'll be getting stuck into
  • Managing a portfolio of 4-7 clients
  • Producing insightful, tailored management accounts
  • Balance sheet reconciliations & clean, accurate reporting
  • Analysing profitability across projects, products & revenue streams
  • Preparing and submitting VAT returns
  • Supporting forecasting and forward planning
  • Cashflow forecasting to give clients real financial visibility
What you'll bring
  • AAT qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA studying or qualified = a bonus)
  • Experience in a similar role (practice or industry)
  • Strong Sage 50 & Xero knowledge
  • Confident with Excel and client communication
  • Solid experience across management accounts, VAT, reconciliations & forecasting
Why this role?

Because you're ready for more than just ticking boxes.

You want ownership, variety, and influence - and that's exactly what this role delivers.
