Sellick Partnership has been engaged on an exclusive basis to recruit a Management Accountant for a reputable and profitable service firm based in Manchester. We are looking to recruit a high calibre and ambitious commercial management accountant as a result of sustained growth. This is a highly entrepreneurial, vibrant and progressive organisation where you will be constantly challenged in an ever changing environment.

Working with a small team of qualified and part-qualified accountants, you will be involved in the production of full management accounts and KPIs, budgeting, balance sheet and P&L reporting, audit preparation and the provision of other financial information. You will act as a trusted advisor to the business, producing and interpreting data, to inform, influence and ultimately to help drive the operational performance of the business.

The successful applicant will be a qualified Accountant (ACA or ACCA or CIMA) making your first move from a practice firm or coming from a similar management accountant role.

You will need to be driven, inquisitive and have a desire to succeed and improve. This is a very exciting opportunity for an ambitious and passionate candidate to forge a career in a highly successful developing business. You can expect to progress quickly within the organisation if performing well within the role and adding value.

You will have strong analytical and reporting skills, project management experience, advanced proficiency in using Microsoft Excel and some knowledge of SQL or Power BI would be helpful. Commercially astute, with exposure to business processes and an understanding of the relationship between operations and the P&L. The ability to communicate effectively with non-finance professionals, to work on your own initiative and apply sound judgement are also key skills.

Personal and professional development from the owners is a key priority and there will be scope to grow within this role and to help shape and nurture the team. The position is ideal for someone looking for a role with significant breadth, and exposure directly to senior leadership.

Furthermore, they operate a blended flexible working model, allowing choice, freedom, and flexibility as to where, when and how you work, balancing personal, team and client requirements.

If you consider yourself to be a committed, career driven professional who can demonstrate the above experience and who would welcome the stimulus of this finance post then we would be pleased to hear from you.

If you would like to apply for this role or would like to find out more, please apply online or contact Jonathan Moss at Sellick Partnership on (phone number removed).

Introduction Data engineering has emerged as a critical and fast-growing field in today’s business landscape. With organisations across every industry striving to collect, organise, and derive insights from massive volumes of data, the demand for talented data engineers continues to surge.
