NXTGEN is recruiting a Temporary Management Accountant to support a growing, multi-entity organisation based in Mid Suffolk.
This assignment will suit an experienced finance professional who can quickly take ownership of month-end reporting across several entities, maintain strong financial controls and work confidently with operational stakeholders. You will join an established finance team during a busy period of growth and change, providing additional capacity while ensuring reporting remains accurate and deadlines are met.
The role
Key responsibilities will include:
* Preparing monthly management accounts across allocated group entities
* Posting journals and managing accruals and prepayments
* Completing and reviewing balance sheet reconciliations
* Supporting revenue calculations, intercompany accounting and fixed assets
* Producing VAT returns, KPI analysis and additional financial reporting
* Investigating variances and resolving outstanding accounting issues
* Liaising with operational teams to understand activity and its financial impact
* Supporting budgeting, forecasting and cash-flow analysis
* Assisting with year-end audit preparation and auditor queries
* Identifying opportunities to improve and standardise finance processes
* Providing cover and support across the wider management accounting team
The successful candidate
You will ideally have:
* Previous experience producing monthly management accounts within a multi-entity environment
* AAT Level 4, part-qualified or qualified CIMA/ACCA status, or equivalent experience
* Strong balance sheet reconciliation and month-end reporting experience
* A good understanding of accruals, prepayments, intercompany transactions and fixed assets
* Strong analytical and Excel skills
* The ability to work independently and quickly understand existing processes
* A confident, professional approach to working with finance and operational stakeholders
* Immediate or short-notice availability
Experience using Oracle NetSuite or working within an operational, energy, environmental or infrastructure-led business would be advantageous but is not essential.
This is an excellent temporary opportunity to join an ambitious organisation, take ownership of a varied portfolio and support a knowledgeable finance team during an important stage of its development
