Job Description

Citadel Source is delighted to partner with a longstanding client on a newly formed Management Accountant role.

A bit about our client

Our client is a purpose-led business with a strong and trusted brand. Having seen steady growth, the company is now expanding its finance team. This newly created role has been established to support the team, providing a pivotal contribution to the business as it continues this journey.

The role

This role oversees all asset-related activity across the business, combining hands-on capital accounting with strong business partnering across a large, multi-site operation. It’s a high-impact position within a growing finance function, offering broad exposure and playing a key role in strengthening financial control and supporting the company’s growth plans. You’ll work closely with non-finance colleagues to manage spend, support month-end processes, and keep projects and operational costs on track.

About you

You will be a newly qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA), or a finalist, with a solid background in management accounting within complex, multi-site organisations. This role will suit someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and is comfortable partnering with both finance and non-finance stakeholders. We’re looking for a proactive individual who enjoys improving processes, can plan effectively, manage competing priorities and build strong working relationships.

As the Management Accountant, your role will include, but not be limited to:

• Ensuring accurate and timely recognition of tangible, intangible, right-of-use, and assets under construction in line with accounting standards
• Maintaining balance sheet integrity through robust monthly reconciliations, clear audit trails, and investigation of material variances
• Producing and reviewing capital and operational accounts to agreed timetables, providing reliable and decision-useful information
• Establishing and maintaining a strong internal control environment to safeguard Group assets and promote financial discipline
• Owning the fixed asset register and capital policies, ensuring consistency, compliance, and regular review across the Group
• Leading capital-related audit activity, including disclosures, reconciliations, and support for impairment reviews
• Managing capital allowances, rates, and asset data for insurance and statutory purposes
• Supporting the CFO and senior finance team with due diligence, data room preparation, and transaction readiness
• Partnering with Finance Business Partners, FP&A, and operational colleagues to provide insight, analysis, and clear financial information
• Driving continuous improvement in capital processes, controls, and reporting as the finance function evolves

What the client has to offer

• Base salary of up to £50,000 DOE
• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Contributory pension scheme
• Hybrid working (2 days on-site, 3 days from home)
