Tuesday 04 February 2025 We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced and ambitious Management Accountant to join the finance team to assist with the delivery of a professional financial service to our internal customers. We are looking for someone who has a positive attitude towards delivering financial support to our colleagues, taking a collaborative approach to problem solving. What you’ll be doing
As a Management Accountant, you’ll be responsible for preparing monthly management accounts and analysing month end reports whilst developing a thorough understanding of all aspects of the business. You will be actively involved in budgeting and quarterly forecasting of Aster’s Group Services division with the aim of providing Aster with an accurate financial position. You will be working in collaboration with our colleagues across Group Services to help them understand their management accounts. You’ll directly line manage one assistant management accountant, so understanding the role of an Aster leader will come as second nature to you. About you
The successful candidate should have proven experience of working within a financial or management accountant role and be an advanced user of Excel, comfortable with using Excel formulas such as VLOOKUPs, SUMIFS and pivot tables. Experience of working in a fast-paced management accounts team where working together to meet joint goals is essential. You will enjoy working in a team and be willing to help others knowing support will be replicated when you need it. You’ll need to be an effective communicator, establishing and building relationships across the business (and up to Director level) to enable collaborative working where applicable. You should be highly organised and have impeccable attention to detail within your work. You need to either be a qualified accountant and member of a CCAB body (CIMA, ICAEW, ACCA) or working towards qualification alongside experience in management accounts and budget preparation. What’s in it for me
We invest in our colleagues because we know if they have a better day at work, the service our customers receive will be better. The Aster Offer is our offer to our colleagues to ensure they have a great day at work and includes things like: Flexible working – whilst some roles need to be carried out in a specific place at a specific time, where possible we encourage our colleagues to work to their own schedule at a location that suits them, their team and our business’ needs. A focus on colleague wellbeing – workshops, an employee assistance programme offering counselling and support, mental health training and a health cash plan. We invest in colleagues’ careers and development through our leader and colleague development frameworks. Defined Contribution Pension and attached life assurance. Volunteering hours available to all colleagues to enable them to give back. Savings at cinemas, gyms, holidays, days out, various shops and eateries and lots more. Enhanced leave. We celebrate colleagues who go above and beyond with a range of personalised recognition initiatives. Ready to apply?
To apply, please use information provided in the advert and role profile to let us know why you’d be good for the job. Please submit a copy of your up-to-date CV along with a supporting statement. We create an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity and believe that creating an environment where everyone, from any background, can do their best work is the right thing to do. Aster is not a sponsorship organisation and all candidates will be required to verify their right to work in the UK prior to commencement of employment with the Aster Group & its subsidiary brands.
