Management Accountant - #2139065

Fully remote role

Digital Appointments is working with a growing multi-entity healthcare organisation to appoint a Management Accountant into a newly created role.
  
The group has expanded quickly and they have outgrown the current setup, and they need a qualified accountant to take ownership of group reporting, bring structure to the month-end process, and give the leadership team proper visibility on how each site is performing.
  
This is a role with real scope. You'll inherit a bookkeeper to supervise and develop, and the business has been open from the outset that they want this person to grow into Financial Controller and build a team beneath them.
  
What you'll be doing

• Owning month-end close across eight entities
• Producing consolidated management accounts, including P&L, balance sheet and cash flow
• Managing intercompany accounting, recharges and reconciliations
• Delivering site-level performance reporting and margin analysis
• Building budgets and rolling forecasts, with clear variance commentary
• Supervising and developing the group bookkeeper
• Improving finance processes, controls and systems as the group scales
• Preparing VAT returns and year-end files, and managing the relationship with the external accountants

What they're looking for

• Qualified accountant — ACA, ACCA or CIMA (strong QBE candidates with the right group background will be considered
• Proven multi-entity experience, including intercompany and consolidation
• Experience mentoring, reviewing or supervising a junior colleague
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working across multiple systems
• Able to translate the numbers for a non-finance audience
• Self-motivated, with the discipline to work well remotely

  
Experience within healthcare, veterinary, or another multi-site service group would be an advantage, but it isn't essential — the multi-entity and supervisory experience matters more.
  
Why this one is worth a look

• Fully remote, with occasional travel to the head office near Manchester
• Genuine, stated progression to Financial Controller
• Newly created role — you'll shape the finance function rather than inherit someone else's
• Profitable, growing group with an owner who's invested in getting finance right
