If you’re someone with the ambition and courage to make us outstanding, we’d love to hear from you. As an FSD Level 3 accredited Finance department, training and development is at the heart of what we are about.You must be studying towards and have ambitions to be a fully CCAB or CIMA qualified accountant or have a transferrable level of experience.
This exciting opportunity will allow the successful candidate to work in an engaging andforward-thinking organisation and be responsible for key objectives. The Management Accountant will support the Financial Management team in the provision of financial information, analysis and advice to managers and staff within the Trust in the most timely and effective manner.
Due to the global pandemic there have been many challenges our Finance team have had to face and we are looking for team players with excellent communication and relationship building skills to join the team. These skills will be heavily relied on as the team work partly remotely, so new staff can expect a warm welcome but will need to have the ability to build relationships with the team and division whilst working from home for part of the working week. Although this has been a change to our usual approach and required some adaptation, we’ve found it to be working successfully and applicants should be able to and be comfortable in working in this way as our ‘agile’ working principles continue to evolve.

We’re a humble Trust.

We are good - the CQC recognised this in April 2019 our staff tells us this every time we ask them. But we want to be outstanding. Not for ourselves, but for the communities we serve.
Bolton is a special place, part of the Greater Manchester family but with a robust identity of its own; communities that are rich in their diversity but unified in the shared characteristics of friendliness, compassion and resilience. They deserve outstanding services.
