OCHO is working with a scaling technology business to recruit a Management Accountant to join their scaling team. This is a newly created role rather than a replacement. My client is on a significant growth trajectory - scaling fast, winning clients, and building the infrastructure to deliver.
This is genuinely a hands-on Management Accountant role with direct exposure to the C-suite. Reporting to COO, the successful candidate will lead the day-to-day finance function and take full ownership of month-end - BUT this role is bigger than that! You will also get significant exposure across growth strategy/planning, commercial decision-making, and year-end.
This is a fantastic role suited to a recently qualified accountant trained in either practice or industry - if you are looking for real commercial exposure, not just month-end, and you're excited by the idea of working inside a fast-scaling tech business, this is the role for you.
The Role
- Lead the full month-end close process with complete ownership from start to finish
- Prepare monthly management accounts including P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow
- Prepare and post journals, accruals, prepayments, and balance sheet reconciliations
- Maintain and strengthen financial controls across the business
- Manage VAT returns, PAYE, and all statutory compliance obligations
- Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, and cash management
Strategic, Commercial & Year-End
- Support the annual budgeting process and maintain rolling forecasts with meaningful variance commentary
- Provide commercial financial analysis to support business decisions, pricing, and growth planning
- Partner with the C-suite to provide financial insight that drives strategic decisions
- Lead the year-end process and act as the primary liaison with external auditors
- Support financial modelling for new business opportunities, investment cases, and scaling initiatives
- Identify and implement improvements to financial systems, processes, and reporting as the business grows
The Person
- Fully qualified ACA, ACCA, or CIMA
- Proven experience preparing management accounts end-to-end
- Strong technical accounting knowledge with a solid grip on financial controls
- Commercially aware - able to think beyond the numbers and contribute to business decisions
- Confident reporting to and presenting for senior stakeholders
- Highly organised, self-directed, and comfortable in a fast-moving environment
