CMA Recruitment Group is working with a high-performing, PE-backed regional business based in Hampshire to recruit a Finance Reporting Manager on a long-term contract basis. This opportunity sits within a growing and acquisitive environment and offers genuine technical exposure across group reporting, statutory accounting and complex financial matters.

This role is well suited to a qualified accountant who enjoys ownership and depth. Rather than focusing on routine month-end production, the emphasis is on building robust reporting, maintaining strong financial controls and acting as a technical point of reference within the wider finance function.

What will the Finance Reporting Manager role involve?

  • Leading the preparation of statutory accounts for multiple group entities under UK GAAP (FRS 102)

  • Managing group consolidations, intercompany balances and reconciliations

  • Acting as the primary point of contact for external auditors and overseeing the audit process from start to finish

  • Supporting the month-end close, with a strong focus on balance sheet integrity and technical accuracy

  • Producing and reviewing financial reporting for holding and financing entities

  • Supporting cash flow forecasting and liquidity planning across the group

Suitable Candidate for the Finance Reporting Manager vacancy:
  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA)

  • Strong background within technical or group accounting roles

  • Proven experience preparing statutory accounts and managing consolidations

  • Confident applying UK GAAP and researching accounting standards independently

  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, commercially focused environment

  • Previous experience within a PE-backed, acquisitive or financial services business would be advantageous

Additional benefits and information:
  • Salary dependent on experience

  • 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays

  • Life assurance and income protection

  • Pension scheme

  • Access to a flexible benefits platform

  • Hybrid working with a Hampshire-based office and a balanced approach to time on-site
