Management Accountant | Christchurch | £40,000 FTC
Are you a commercially minded finance professional with a strong analytical approach and a knack for turning numbers into insight? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where collaboration and clarity are key to driving business performance?
As a Management Accountant , you'll support financial planning, reporting, and decision-making across a growing business with major capital projects underway. This is a 12-month fixed-term opportunity offering exposure to a wide range of commercial and operational finance activity, from month-end reporting to capex analysis. You will be working closely with the Head of Finance and wider operations teams.
Although a qualified or finalist-level accountant would be desirable for this role, this isn't an essential. This role would suit someone with previous experience in a manufacturing or product-led environment, who has a desire to contribute to high-impact business decisions.

* A competitive salary with the stability of a fixed-term contract
* Early finish on Fridays and time and a half overtime
* 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, with a Christmas shutdown
* Critical illness and life cover
* Company sick pay scheme
* Free on-site parking
* A collaborative, performance-focused culture with clear accountability and support
As a Management Accountant, your responsibilities will include:
* Preparing monthly P&L, balance sheet and cash flow reports
* Assisting with annual budgets, forecasts and variance analysis
* Providing clear commentary on key financial performance indicators
* Tracking costs and progress on major capital projects
* Supporting internal and external financial reporting and audit requirements
* Assisting with cash flow forecasting and working capital management
* Driving the continuous improvement of financial systems and processes
As a Management Accountant, your skills and experience will include:
* CCAB-qualified or finalist status (ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent)
* At least 2 years' experience in a management accounting role
* Strong Excel skills and a data-driven approach to analysis
* Experience in a manufacturing or product-led environment (preferred)
* Confident communication and the ability to influence across departments
