Job Description

razorblue role:
We're on the lookout for a Management Accountant who's not just good with numbers, but brilliant with them. Our dream candidate is part-qualified or fully qualified (ACA, ACCA, CIMA), has a sixth sense for balance sheet reconciliations, and can spot a misposted accrual from a mile away. You'll be the kind of person who thrives on month-end madness, loves a tidy ledger, and isn't afraid to challenge the status quo (or a dodgy prepayment). If you're commercially curious, systems-savvy, and ready to roll up your sleeves in a fast-paced finance team - we'd love to meet you!
Should you choose to accept, your responsibilities will encompass:
Management Accounts (50%)

• Prepare and deliver accurate and timely monthly management accounts, including profit and loss (P&L), balance sheet, and variance analysis.
• Provide insightful financial analysis to explain variances, identify trends, and support continuous business performance improvement.
• Perform and review monthly balance sheet reconciliations to ensure the accuracy and integrity of financial data.
• Support the Finance Director with high-quality management information to aid strategic decision-making.
• Creating and updating schedules for prepayments and accruals on a period basis.

Budgeting & Cost Control (20%)

• Collaborate with teams across the business to ensure costs are accurately captured within the correct accounting period.
• Monitor departmental spend against budget, identifying risks and opportunities.
• Challenge assumptions and highlight material variances to the Finance Director.
• Assist in the preparation of annual budgets and periodic forecasts.

Audit & Compliance (20%)

• Ensure adherence to internal controls, accounting standards (e.g. IFRS), and regulatory requirements.
• Prepare audit schedules and support external auditors during year-end audits.
• Maintain accurate documentation and audit trails for all financial processes.
• Identify and mitigate financial risks through robust control frameworks and proactive issue resolution.

Reporting & Systems (10%)

• Maintain and enhance financial reporting tools and dashboards to improve visibility of key performance indicators.
• Ensure financial systems are updated accurately and efficiently, supporting automation and process optimisation.
• Contribute to the development and implementation of process improvements to increase reporting accuracy and reduce month-end close timelines.

razorblue requirements:
We know its unrealistic to find someone who ticks all of these boxes (extra points if you do), which is why we seek those eager to develop over time through our development resources and peer learning. If this aligns with your own personal growth mindset, we would love you to apply.

• Qualified or part-qualified accountant (e.g. ACA, ACCA, CIMA).
• Proven experience in a management accounting or financial analysis role.
• Experience with financial reporting.
• Proficient in Excel and financial software (e.g. Business Central, Sage, SAP etc).
• Ability to work independently and meet tight deadlines.
• Strong communication, and relationship-building skills.
