Group Accountant
UK-based Renewables Business
Ref: TT52343
- Permanent
- London
- Competitive + bonus
Our client is a well-funded technology business in the renewable energy space with an initial production facility already in operation and several more under construction, both in the UK and abroad. They are now seeking a new group accountant to support the finance function as the company reaches its next stage of growth.
Description
The successful candidate will deliver external reporting, prepare the annual plan, and produce monthly forecasting. You will oversee the accounts of subsidiary companies and ensure compliance across the group. You will lead the annual statutory audit process, tax submissions, and work with the Group Controller to prepare the company for IFRS. You will work closely with the business controller and manage one direct report. The relatively small size of the business means that the successful candidate will have excellent exposure to senior figures. Overall, this is a really interesting opportunity for a candidate with a relevant background and a strong desire to learn.
Skills
The successful candidate will be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CA or equivalent) and ideally have experience of the energy or renewable sectors, either in public practice or industry. You will have experience of working in a small team and managing the month-end reporting process, ideally in a fast-growing business. You will be pro-active and have a strong desire to improve performance.
