The business is open to candidates coming straight from practice as well as those with hands‑on industry expertise, however, IFRS experience is a must.

- Collaborate with controlling, external tax consultants, and treasury departments
- Monitor updates and changes in IFRS standards and ensure proper implementation
What you'll need to succeed
You'll need to be a qualified accountant, either:
- Industry experience with IFRS reporting (open on sector)
- ACA coming straight from practice with IFRS exposure
Any experience with group consolidations (auditing or preparing) will be advantageous.

Competitive salary of £60-75k (DOE), a discretionary bonus, and the support of the CFO to grow your skills & career.
