Management Accountant (Temp-to-Perm) | Leeds (Hybrid) | £50,000 - £60,000

The finance function here needs someone to step in and influence.

With the business continuing to grow, there's a need for someone who can take ownership of the day-to-day, tighten up reporting, and give the Finance Director the space to focus on the bigger picture.

It's a broad role with plenty of scope - and the opportunity to make it your own.

You'll step into a hands-on position with responsibility for the core finance processes, alongside the chance to improve how things are done.

Responsibilities:

  • Own the monthly management accounts and reporting cycle

  • Improve the accuracy, clarity and timeliness of reporting

  • Manage cashflow, forecasting and budgeting

  • Support operational teams with commercial insight

  • Get close to WIP, revenue and project performance

  • Strengthen processes, controls and general financial discipline

Over time, this could evolve into a broader Financial Controller-style role, depending on your experience.

The business:

You'll be joining an independent Leeds-based marketing agency with a strong reputation and long-standing client relationships across well-known consumer brands.

They're an established, profitable SME with a collaborative culture - the kind of environment where you can get involved, build relationships quickly and see the impact of your work.

Expect:

  • A down-to-earth, people-focused culture

  • Hybrid and flexible working

  • A business that values commercial thinking as much as technical delivery

What they're looking for:
  • ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified or part qualified, also open to QBE

  • Proven experience producing management accounts and owning reporting

  • Comfortable working in a hands-on SME environment

  • Able to communicate with and influence non-finance stakeholders

  • Someone who naturally looks to improve and streamline

What's on offer:
  • Circa £50,000 - £60,000 (flexible depending on experience)

  • Temp-to-perm opportunity

  • Full time but will consider part time (3-4 day working week) also

  • Hybrid working (Leeds-based)

  • 25 days holiday plus birthday off

  • Christmas shutdown

  • Flexible working hours

  • A role with genuine scope to grow and shape over time
