The role will also oversee payroll processing and payroll reporting, ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time and that payroll information is properly reflected in management reporting and statutory submissions.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist with the month-end close process, including journals, accruals, prepayments, balance sheet reconciliations and variance analysis.
• Help prepare consolidated financial statements across the group, including multi-entity and, where applicable, multi-currency reporting.
• Maintain and improve the financial control environment, ensuring appropriate policies, procedures and approval processes are followed.
• Support cash flow reporting, working capital management and short- to medium-term liquidity forecasting.
• Partner with FP&A and Operations teams to improve financial visibility and support decision-making.
• Assist with annual audit preparation and manage audit deliverables, queries and supporting schedules.
• Oversee the end-to-end payroll process, including payroll inputs, approvals, reconciliations, reporting, pension and benefit deductions, and liaison with external payroll providers where applicable.
• Prepare payroll reporting and analysis for management accounts, including salary costs, commissions, bonuses, employer taxes, benefits, headcount reporting and payroll-related accruals.
• Contribute to finance transformation initiatives, including systems optimisation, automation and process improvement.
• Provide ad hoc analysis for the Senior Finance Management team, including KPI, SaaS metrics and performance reporting.

Candidate Profile

• Qualified accountant with ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent credentials.
• Strong technical accounting knowledge and experience preparing management accounts and balance sheet reconciliations.
• Experience in a SaaS, subscription, technology or high-growth business environment is highly desirable.
• Experience in a private equity-backed, investor-led or scale-up environment would be advantageous.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, change-oriented environment with evolving processes and systems.
• Strong Excel and financial systems skills; experience with NetSuite, Sage X3, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics or similar ERP platforms would be beneficial.
• Experience with payroll processing, payroll controls and payroll reporting, with an understanding of PAYE, pensions, benefits and payroll-related reconciliations.
• Commercially aware, with an interest in SaaS metrics such as ARR, revenue retention, churn, CAC, gross margin and EBITDA.
• Excellent attention to detail, sound judgement and the ability to communicate clearly with finance and non-finance stakeholders.

What Success Looks Like

• Month-end reporting is delivered accurately and on time, with fewer manual adjustments and stronger supporting analysis.
• Balance sheet reconciliations, controls and audit trails are robust, well documented and consistently maintained.
• Payroll processing, payroll reporting and related reconciliations are accurate, timely, well controlled and clearly integrated into monthly reporting.
