Duration : Permanent

Sellick Partnership has been engaged to recruit a permanent Accountant for a fast growing and reputable private equity backed service business based in Manchester city centre.

The post holder will be joining a dynamic and entrepreneurial team and can expect daily interaction with senior stakeholders. Accordingly, the role offers the opportunity for rapid progression, and strong performance will be quickly recognised and well rewarded. This role is suited to a recently qualified accountant from an audit background, or with experience in working in a similar role

The role holder is key in assisting the financial operation, valuations, and reporting for the firm's various funds. This role requires the ability to work collaboratively with other departments, being an important link between the portfolio management commercial operation and various finance departments within the business and external auditors, while evolving processes to support the increasing scale of the asset manager. Furthermore, the role requires a strong attention to detail, analytical skills, and the ability to collaborate effectively within a dynamic team environment.

This will be a wide-ranging role and provide a significant number of opportunities to get involved with different types of work outside the core role, which will provide professional growth and add genuine variety to the role.

It is expected that the successful candidate will be dynamic and able to thrive in a fast-paced organisation, where initiative and ability to identify areas of improvement are promoted.

The successful applicant will be a proactive, fully qualified Accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or ICAS) either making their first move from practice or coming from a similar role. You must have experience within a Financial Services business.

Due to the nature of this position it is necessary that the successful individual is able to communicate with staff at all levels, whilst maintaining their own work load. Focussed on delivering specific objectives, you will be proactive, adaptable, dynamic and self-motivated with a desire to find and deliver improvements.

If you consider yourself to be a committed, career driven professional who can demonstrate the above experience and who would welcome the stimulus of this commercial finance post then we would be pleased to hear from you.
