Job description

Management Accountant – High-Growth, Sustainable Industry Leader
Location: Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Salary: £38,000 – £45,000 (depending on experience)
Benefits: Free lunches, holiday purchase scheme, birthdays off, flexible working and more

An established, fast-growing organisation operating within the sustainable cleaning, hygiene and healthcare sector is seeking a capable and commercially astute Management Accountant to join its finance team in Shrewsbury.

With a turnover around £27million, this is a forward-thinking business supplying a wide range of clients across healthcare, education, facilities management and local government. The company is known for its commitment to sustainability, operational excellence and long-term partnerships — and offers an opportunity to be part of a values-led organisation that is genuinely making a difference.

About the Role

This is a hands-on and varied role, reporting to the Financial Controller and working closely with a small transactional finance team of three. You will take full ownership of the monthly management accounts and play a key role in ensuring the integrity and insightfulness of financial information.

This role offers great scope for growth and development and would suit someone looking to broaden their commercial exposure within a supportive, ambitious organisation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Preparation of monthly management accounts including stock, fixed assets, depreciation, accruals, prepayments and journals
  • Monthly bank reconciliations across multi-bank, multi-company and multi-currency environments
  • Ownership of balance sheet reconciliations and control accounts
  • VAT returns, including EU and non-EU transactions, and compliance with the Plastic Packaging Tax
  • Support with import documentation, landed costs and freight invoice reconciliation
  • Rebate tracking and claiming (customer, supplier, price support)
  • Weekly cash flow forecasting and updates
  • Cover support for both purchase ledger and sales ledger functions

Requirements

About You

  • Part-qualified or fully qualified CIMA/ACCA (or equivalent)
  • Solid experience in a hands-on accounting role
  • Strong Excel skills with the ability to manage and interpret large volumes of data
  • Experience using SAP Business One is advantageous but not essential
  • Meticulous attention to detail and high standards of accuracy
  • A proactive mindset, with confidence to suggest and implement process improvements
  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work collaboratively across departments


This is an ideal first or second move into industry for someone currently in practice or a similar commercial environment.

Benefits

You’ll benefit from:

  • Competitive salary, depending on experience
  • Free lunch on a Friday
  • Additional perks such as birthday leave and holiday purchase scheme
  • Flexible and hybrid working opportunities
  • Study support for CIMA/ACCA if required
  • Ongoing professional development within a growing business

Why Apply?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking, sustainably-focused organisation with a strong reputation in its sector. The company offers a modern and supportive working environment, where staff well-being, flexibility and long-term development are prioritised.
