This long standing design and manufacturing business is going through a significant inward investment programme to support further growth. They now have cutting edge production facilities and new equipment to give them a major advantage over their competitors.
An urgent requirement has now arisen for a Management Accountant / Assistant Accountant to support the FD who is busy with projects. The role is envisaged to last 2-3 months whilst they review the future needs of the finance department and could therefore position a strong candidate for a permanent role in the future. This office based role would suit someone IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE who has a good grounding in SME accounting duties and can pick things up quickly to bring them up to speed in a busy, fast moving environment. The key responsibilities will include:
- Preparation of the monthly management accounts
- Supporting the preparation of budgets and forecasts
- Producing variance analysis and commentary
- Reporting and analysis of KPIs
- Fixed asset register and stock control
- Raw materials reporting and cost analysis
- Preparation of VAT returns
- Balance sheet reconciliations
- Raising invoices, recording transactions
- Invoice financing administration
The finance department needs some modernisation to deal with recent rapid growth and so there is plenty of scope for you to have input into new internal systems and reporting processes. A new ERP system is planned for the near future and if successful the Management Accountant will be expected to play a key role in ensuring it is fit for purpose from a finance perspective.
