The organisation is known for its strong leadership, ongoing investment in technology and finance capability, and a culture that genuinely encourages continuous improvement.

The Opportunity

This is a high-visibility, broad position-ideal for someone newly qualified (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) looking for a step up into a role that blends technical rigour with commercial exposure. It’s a unique opportunity to deliver value-add from day 1, so if you consider yourself relatively entrepreneurial, then this one could be for you!
