The Opportunity

Are you a skilled accountant with a passion for excellence and a desire to be part of an innovative and dynamic FMCG group? Do you thrive in an environment that invests in people and values continuous improvement and development? If so, we want to hear from you!

Prepare and analyse financial statements, ensuring accuracy and compliance with accounting standards.
Manage month-end and year-end closing processes.
Perform reconciliations of accounts and resolve discrepancies.
Support budgeting and forecasting activities.
Provide technical accounting guidance and support to the finance team.
Assist in the preparation of audit schedules and liaise with external auditors.
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives to enhance financial processes and controls.

You need:

To be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with solid technical accounting skills.
Proven experience in financial accounting, preferably within the FMCG sector.
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
Proficiency in financial software and Microsoft Excel.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
A proactive and innovative mindset, with a passion for continuous improvement and development.
