Hays Specialist Recruitment • Basingstoke, Hampshire RG21 4EQ
About this role
Your new company
We're currently partnering with a well-established and growing organisation based in North-East Hampshire to appoint a Management Accountant. Operating within a collaborative and commercially focused environment, the business offers a flexible hybrid working (typically 3 days in the office and 2 from home).
Your new role
This is a key commercial finance position, supporting senior stakeholders with accurate financial reporting, analysis, budgeting and forecasting. You'll take ownership of monthly management accounts, including P&L, balance sheet reconciliations and variance analysis, as well as delivering meaningful insights through KPIs and financial dashboards.
It is an all-encompassing role whereby you will be managing the budgeting and forecasting cycle, working closely with operational teams, alongside supporting cash flow management, working capital and liquidity planning. The role also offers exposure to wider finance responsibilities, including statutory reporting support, tax provisions, audit queries and maintaining robust financial controls. There is a strong emphasis on business partnering, providing challenge and driving informed decision-making across the organisation.
What you'll need to succeed
You'll be a qualified or part-qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) with at least 3 years' experience in a management accounting or commercial finance role. You will bring strong technical accounting knowledge, alongside advanced Excel skills and experience working with ERP systems.
We're looking for someone who can confidently produce accurate, insightful reporting to tight deadlines, with the ability to communicate financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders. A proactive, commercially minded approach and the confidence to challenge and influence are key to success in this role.
What you'll get in return
A competitive salary is on offer, alongside hybrid working and the opportunity to work within a supportive and forward-thinking finance function. This role offers strong exposure across the business with genuine scope to add value and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.
