At OneAdvanced, we’re on a mission to Power the World of Work– and we need sharp minds behind the numbers to make it happen. We’re looking for a motivated, solution focused Financial Accounting Manager to join our dynamic central finance function. You’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring accurate financial reporting, strengthening internal controls, and uncovering insights that drive smarter business decisions. This is more than just month-end – it's your chance to shape processes and influence change.

You’ll join a close-knit team with a genuine culture of openness, support, and honest feedback. You’ll gain hands-on experience that will accelerate your career. We’re passionate about continuous improvement – and we want you to bring your voice, your ideas, and your ambition.

As Financial Accounting Manager, you’ll be the trusted expert overseeing financial integrity across the Group. Expect hands-on exposure and strategic influence.

You'll:

• Assist in the preparation and analysis of financial statements – monthly, quarterly, and annually
• Oversee and manage general ledger processes across the Group alongside your fellow managers
• Prepare and approve manual journals in line with financial thresholds
• Manage and develop 1–2 direct reports, while supporting the broader finance team
• Drive high-quality, timely balance sheet reconciliations and address discrepancies proactively
• Champion process improvements and data accuracy across systems and reports
• Build out policies and controls to strengthen compliance and reduce risk
• Lead the way during audits – coordinating responses and delivering documentation
• Generate insightful financial analysis that supports commercial decision-making
• Collaborate with other finance teams and the wider business to mitigate risk
• Play a key role in exciting cross-functional projects like acquisitions, refinancing, and transformation initiatives

You’re a detail-oriented problem solver, a strong communicator, and a team player who thrives in a fast-paced environment. We’re looking for:

• A qualified accountant (ACA/CIMA or equivalent) with at least 1-year post-qualification experience
• Proven expertise in financial reporting, controls, and reconciliations
• Strong analytical thinking with the ability to interpret and present data clearly
• The ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining high standards
• Experience with financial systems – Salesforce and NetSuite are a bonus

Please note: This is a Hybrid role, requiring 3 days based from our Head Office, Birmingham City Centre - Mailbox. 

Advert closing date: Midnight, Sunday 28th September. However, if we receive a sufficient amount of quality applications ahead of the closing date we may close earlier, therefore we would encourage early applications.
