FP&A Assistant Manager

💰 up to £55,000

📍 London Bridge | Hybrid Working

🌍 International Business | Newly Qualified Accountant

Just qualified at a Big 4 firm and thinking about your first move into industry?

This could be a great place to start.

We're working with a large, international business looking for a newly qualified accountant to join its commercial finance team in a newly created FP&A Assistant Manager role.

It's an excellent opportunity to move away from audit and into a more commercially focused position, gaining exposure to budgeting, forecasting, management reporting and business partnering across a range of corporate functions.

You'll be working closely with an experienced Commercial Finance Manager, supporting the financial management of a Shared Service Centre covering IT, Property, HR, Legal, Compliance, Finance and Executive functions.

What you'll be doing

• Supporting budgeting and quarterly forecasting across multiple business functions
• Producing monthly management reports, analysing spend and explaining variances
• Working with senior stakeholders to understand costs and support better financial decision-making
• Taking ownership of CAPEX reporting, analysis and budgeting
• Analysing expenditure across areas including recruitment, legal fees and training
• Working with the accounting team to ensure accurate cost allocations
• Helping improve reporting processes, controls and financial information

What we're looking for

• Newly qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA accountant
• A background in a Big 4 or other accountancy practice would be very welcome
• Strong technical accounting skills and an analytical mindset
• Someone organised, proactive and comfortable working with detail
• Confident communication skills and an interest in building relationships with non-finance colleagues
• A genuine desire to develop a career in commercial finance and FP&A

Experience of US GAAP or SOX controls would be useful, but isn't essential.

Why consider it?

This is a newly created role offering a great introduction to commercial finance within a sizeable international organisation.

You'll get exposure to a wide range of business functions, work with senior stakeholders and develop the FP&A and business partnering skills that can open doors to more senior commercial finance roles in the future.

If you're newly qualified and looking for your first move out of practice, we'd love to hear from you, as well as those experienced in FP&A in large complex businesses.
