Senior Financial Accountant

New Today

💼 Senior Financial Accountants being hired for global FTSE business! 📍 Hybrid – Hampshire (3 days onsite) If you’re happiest when things aren’t perfect — keep reading. These are roles for hands-on Financial Accountants who can thrive in a fast paced environment, take ownership, and genuinely improve how things are done — not just follow the process because “that’s how it’s always been”. You’ll be joining a newly formed Finance Hub within a large, complex UK & Europe division, supporting financial results across a multi-contract, multi-business portfolio. This is a role for someone who enjoys structure, controls, and process — but is equally comfortable operating in organised chaos while things continue to evolve. You’ll report into a Finance Manager and play a key role in delivering an accurate, timely, and controlled end-to-end Record-to-Report (R2R) process. 🔍 What you’ll be responsible for
Supporting the month-end close across allocated cost and revenue streams Ensuring accurate recording of financial results across contracts and business units Reviewing journals and balance sheet reconciliations prepared by offshore teams — and holding the BPO to account Coordinating resolution of aged balance sheet items (WIP, debt, accruals, prepayments) Interpreting and running standardised finance processes on a monthly cycle Delegating work to onshore colleagues (indirect management responsibility) Working closely with Finance Business Partners, Controllers, and Operational teams Identifying inefficiencies and driving continuous improvement and automation
This is very much a “doing the doing” role — hands-on, delivery-focused, and critical to the credibility of finance across the business. 🌍 The environment you’ll work in
A UK business spanning ~80 contracts across multiple sectors High-value, service-based contracts with varied revenue and cost drivers A hybrid onshore/offshore finance model requiring strong judgement and communication A fast-moving hub still being shaped — where your input genuinely matters
🎓 Candidate Background we’re open to
ACA straight from practice (Top10) or with some industry experience ACCA / CIMA with strong Financial Accounting experience in large, complex organisations Management Accounting backgrounds welcomed if you’ve moved into Financial Accounting
If you’re looking for ownership, exposure, and a role where your judgement actually matters — we’d love to hear from you. Please apply for the role or email me on kate.wood@stantonhouse.com with a copy of your CV #J-18808-Ljbffr
