  • Proven experience preparing and reviewing consolidated group accounts
  • Experience liaising with auditors and resolving technical accounting queries
  • Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality
  • Strong communication skills with the confidence to engage with clients and colleagues at all levels

  • Exposure to complex statutory reporting and consolidated group accounts
  • Opportunity to become a key reviewer and technical specialist within the team
