Company Accountant

Company Accountant Derbyshire £45,000 – £55,000 (DOE) Benefits

Looking for that next step where you can lead, influence, and still stay hands-on? This could be just the thing.

We’re working with a successful, long-standing business based in Derbyshire that’s on the lookout for a Company Accountant to take full ownership of their finance function.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who’s ready to step up, lead a small team, and bring structure and clarity to day-to-day finance operations. You’ll be trusted to manage everything from month-end and budgeting to year-end reporting, while working closely with the senior management team on key decisions.

We’re looking for someone who is immediately available or available at short notice and ready to get stuck in.

It’s hands-on, varied, and full of impact — with plenty of autonomy and support behind you.

• Taking full ownership of the UK finance function

• Preparing monthly management accounts and supporting commentary

• Leading month-end close, trial balance, reconciliations, and stock

• Managing the annual budget and periodic forecasting

• Supporting directors with commercial insight and financial planning

• Leading and developing a small, capable finance team

• Occasional travel for meetings (UK and occasional Germany)

• ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified or QBE with relevant experience

• Experience as a Finance Manager, Management Accountant or Company Accountant

• Confident with month-end, reporting, and team leadership

• Comfortable balancing operational detail with strategic input

• Strong Excel skills; SAP experience is a plus

• A role you can truly make your own — take full ownership from day one

• Join a respected, stable business with a supportive, down-to-earth culture

• Work closely with senior leadership and make a direct impact

• Competitive salary, solid benefits, and long-term potential
