Management Accountant
Warrington (Office Based)
£45,000 - £55,000

This business has delivered high-quality mechanical and electrical building services across the North of England for over 35 years. Operating through five specialist divisions, they are a dynamic, project-led organisation built on technical excellence, operational precision and commercial strength.

Now, as they continue to scale, they are strengthening their financial capability and we're looking for a Management Accountant who wants to be at the heart of that journey.

The Opportunity

This is not a role confined to spreadsheets and month-end packs.

They are looking for a commercially sharp, systems-driven Management Accountant who wants to be embedded in how the business truly performs. You'll play a hands-on role in driving financial control, improving visibility and supporting operational leaders with clear, meaningful insight.

Operating in a fast-paced, reactive environment where detail matters, margins matter and discipline matters. You'll thrive here if you enjoy getting into the numbers, interrogating job costs, analysing margins and tightening controls - while influencing decisions in real time.

Reporting to the Financial Controller/Director, you'll be central to delivering accurate, timely and commercially relevant financial information across the Group.

Key Responsibilities

  • Preparation of monthly management accounts, including balance sheet reconciliations, journals, accruals, prepayments, WIP calculations, VAT returns and group reporting

  • Weekly cashflow forecasting and maintaining strong financial control and accuracy

  • Financial oversight of live projects, including forecasting outturn costs and cashflows

  • Monitoring labour allocation, cost recovery and producing detailed job cost and margin analysis

  • Supporting budget reviews, reforecasts and developing meaningful financial KPIs

  • Acting as an early warning system to identify risks to margin and performance

  • Strengthening financial controls and improving processes within a high-volume environment

  • Enhancing reporting capability and supporting automation initiatives

  • Constructively challenging inefficiencies and building scalable, future-ready systems

  • Partnering with operational managers to translate financial data into clear commercial insight

  • Improving cost visibility across divisions and supporting ledger teams where required

  • Contributing to a collaborative, high-performing finance function and maintaining high standards throughout

About You

  • ACCA / CIMA part-qualified or qualified with 3 years experience

  • Experience within construction, building services, facilities management or similar operational sectors advantageous

  • Strong commercial awareness

  • Advanced Excel skills (lookups and pivot tables essential)

Whats On Offer

  • £45,000 - £55,000 per annum

  • Company pension

  • Health & wellbeing programme

  • Employee mentoring programme

  • On-site parking

  • Flexibility if needed
  • Genuine progression potential within a growing, multi-division group
