  • Oversee preparation of corporation tax returns and other statutory obligations.
  • Drive efficiency through process enhancements, automation, and improved internal controls across finance operations.
  • Lead the financial integration of new acquisitions, including system alignment, consolidation, and policy standardisation.
  • Monitor and forecast cash flow. Ensure robust banking controls and fraud prevention processes.
  • Support payroll review and ensure timely submission of employer-related statutory filings (e.g. P11Ds, ERS returns).
  • Manage a small finance team, including development, goal setting, and performance reviews.

Candidate Requirements
  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with 3+ years of post-qualified experience.
  • Strong experience in group consolidations, multi-entity accounting, and intercompany transactions.
  • Prior involvement in preparing statutory accounts and liaising with auditors.
