Strong finance / General Ledger accounting experience
Experience working with a Shared Service Centre or centralised finance function
Strong month-end and year-end experience
Experience of statutory reporting and year-end accounts
Good knowledge of VAT and tax compliance

Strong reconciliation and financial controls experience
The ability to identify problems, challenge existing processes and implement improvements
Confidence working within an evolving environment where processes may not always be fully defined
Strong attention to quality, accuracy and compliance
Experience using an ERP system; SAP would be advantageous
Strong Excel and analytical skills
You may be ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified or part-qualified, or qualified by experience (QBE). The depth of your practical technical accounting experience is particularly important.
Why Consider This Role?
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of accounting but also wants broader exposure within an international business.
You'll have ownership of key UK accounting activities whilst working across a wider regional finance structure, giving you the opportunity to build international experience and develop your career within a global organisation.
What's in it for You?
Salary of circa £45,000
