Professional Services
A rapidly growing, highly profitable professional services firm based in London with considerable international operations is now looking to hire a Finance Manager to support the senior leadership team and their ambitions for future expansion.
Description
Following a period of significant growth, our client is seeking a recently-qualified accountant to join the team as Finance Manager. Reporting to the Financial Controller and indirectly to the CFO/COO, the successful candidate will be responsible for leading a team of 2-3 part-qualified analysts, supervising the cost side of the management accounts, supporting on the company-wide budget, maintaining key banking relationships, and reviewing regular VAT returns for the international business. The position will involve business partnering with other support functions within the business (e.g. IT and marketing) and a high degree of visibility among senior stakeholders. Some international travel may also be required.
Skills
Our client is seeking applications from recently-qualified accountants with ambition, accuracy, and strong numerical skills. A capacity to communicate effectively across the firm and externally is required, while previous team leadership experience is much preferred. Experience of previously preparing or reviewing management accounts, ideally but not necessarily in the professional services sector, would also be beneficial.

We are sorry, but if you have not heard from us within the next ten days, please assume you have been unsuccessful on this occasion.
