  We‘ve filled this role subject to candidate commencement and/or successful probation completion. Get in touch to learn about alternative opportunities. Exclusive to Trial Balance Consulting Financial Accountant - Cullompton - Up to: £45,000  It can be difficult to settle on a job title that does a role justice… and this is one of those occasions. It’s not a Management Accountant, not a Finance Manager, but not strictly a Financial Accountant either. It’s all of those and more, making it an opportunity with superb variety and exceptional future prospects. Trial Balance Consulting are delighted to have been exclusively selected to assist a new client, a very fast growth and genuinely unique retail focussed business that is really making waves across Europe and soon, the Americas. The business has tasked us with sourcing an experienced accountant to join their team in a newly created role that is highly likely to develop.  Working closely alongside an experienced and very friendly Financial Controller and supported by a small but growing transactional finance team, this will be a role with a focus on financial reporting, but spanning all areas of the end-to-end finance function. Key responsibilities to include:  - Assist in the preparation of detailed monthly management reports/accounts with accompanying commentary - Produce high quality and timely financial reporting packs in line with FCA requirements  - Production of accurate VAT reports for both UK and EU entities   - Act as a key point of contact for annual internal and external audits  - Deputise for the Financial Controller where required, assuming line management for a small team  - Develop, implement and maintain digital accounting processes to increase efficiency and future-proof for continued growth  - Bank reconciliations  - Produce cash flow statements and general forecasts  - Oversee aged debtor controls and procedures - Maintenance of the fixed asset register  - Balance sheet reconciliation  - Assisting with ongoing accounting projects  For this role we are seeking to attract candidates with a strong understanding of end-to-end accounting processes gained within a fast developing business. Candidate’s should be either part/fully professionally qualified (ACA/ACCA/CIMA), or consider themselves to be qualified through vocational experience (QBE). Proven experience of developing and implementing new accounting processes and systems is essential and the successful candidate should possess strong general IT aptitude (and be highly competent in the use of MS Excel). A knowledge of multi-currency transaction, and EU VAT would also be desirable, though not essential. As the role is highly likely to require the successful candidate to recruit and develop a small transactional finance team, supervisory experience would be desirable, or an aptitude to manage a small team. The role works within a highly energetic team that will recognise the value of an additional accountant in the building, so strong communication skills and commercial awareness will be a must!  In addition to a generous base salary, the role offers a range of great benefits and the opportunity to join a highly successful business poised for continued expansion.

  Charity Accounts Manager – Newquay / Hybrid – £30k - £35k There’s a lot to consider when moving on to a new job opportunity. The role responsibilities need to suit, the remuneration needs to be attractive and the future prospects need to be bright. But perhaps one of the most important, and often overlooked, factors to consider is a strong belief in your new employer’s values and the nature of their operation. If working with a highly ethical organisation that genuinely changes & improves the world means as much as the job that you’re paid to do, this will undoubtedly be an opportunity that will be of interest.  Trial Balance Consulting have been exclusively engaged by a new and exciting charity; an organisation with clearly focussed projects aimed at fixing our planet for the future. They seek to recruit an experienced Accounts Manager; a permanent, full-time opportunity offering very favourable hybrid working options, as well as an office base overlooking a beautiful part of Cornwall. This is a position of pivotal importance within the organisation and one that works closely with the Director of Finance and HR Director. Working as part of a small but passionate team, this will be a broad and varied role with the following responsibilities:  - Being responsible for the day-to-day finance function, overseeing day-to-day accounting operations - Preparation of all journal entries and balance sheet for month end - Reviewing all expenses ensuring correct documentation and coding - Cashflow and income monitoring - Support with the design and implementation of guides/training, as well as continual improvement of finance systems - Assist with payroll operations - Ad hoc project/ problem solving as the office expands - Support the Director across administrative tasks such as Finance, HR, IT and general operations as required - Liaison with external auditors and stakeholders The successful candidate: we’re more focussed on relevant technical and career experience than we are qualification status, so applications are invited from both QBE, AAT and part/fully professionally qualified applicants. Previous experience gained in a charity accounting environment would be highly advantageous, but this employer recognises that a commercially astute finance professional, with exposure gained in the private sector will also have a lot to offer here. Either way you’ll be an accomplished accountant with superb organisational and interpersonal skills. For further details and to apply, please contact Dan Saunders quoting reference DS9849. Read Less
