If you're looking for a broad, autonomous brief with genuine scope to add value, we'd love to hear from you. The ideal candidate will bring strong technical accounting skills, commercial acumen, and a proactive approach to process improvement.

What you'll get in return

An opportunity to take on an autonomous role with plenty of breath and variety associated with the remit.
