Job Description

CMA Recruitment Group is retained on an exclusive basis to appoint a qualified Management Accountant, on a part-time permanent basis, for a well-established Southampton charity. The organisation operates a group of services across the city and employs almost 200 people, with a turnover of around £6m. It is unusual in that it delivers much of its work in areas where commercial providers have withdrawn, and any surplus is reinvested rather than distributed. The culture is deliberately family friendly and the working pattern is genuinely flexible.

The position is 24 hours per week and the organisation is open on how those hours are arranged, whether that is three full days or spread more widely across the week. Thursday mornings in the office are the one fixed commitment, as that is when the senior team meets.

What will the Management Accountant  role involve?

Preparing the annual statutory accounts and acting as the main point of contact for the external auditors
Producing monthly management accounts for the group
Building and maintaining budgets and forecasts, broken down to individual site level
Reporting site performance against budget to operational managers and to the board, which meets five to six times a year
Supporting the payroll process, including an upcoming provider review
Maintaining financial controls, including segregation of duties across banking and authorisation
Working alongside the existing Finance Manager, with genuine scope to take on wider responsibility over time
Suitable candidate for the Management Accountant vacancy:

Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA), or qualified by experience with a strong statutory reporting background
Experience of preparing annual accounts, ideally within a charity, education or not-for-profit setting
Comfortable working with non-finance colleagues and explaining performance to operational managers
Confident working autonomously in a small central team
Sound understanding of financial controls in an organisation handling significant cash income
Additional benefits and information for the role of Management Accountant :

24 hours per week with real flexibility on how they are worked
Hybrid working, with two days per week typically in the Southampton office
Free childcare for employees with young children
Flat structure with direct access to the Executive Director and board
A values-led organisation where the work has a visible social purpose
