Senior Management Accountant role driving growth, M&A integration and scale in South Acton £55,000-£65,000

Your new company
This is a rare chance to step into a high-impact Senior Management Accountant role within a fast-growing, PE-backed healthcare business at a genuinely exciting point in its journey. The business is scaling rapidly, making acquisitions and strengthening its finance function to support ambitious growth plans. This opportunity will take financial ownership of a newly acquired entity. If you're a commercially minded Management Accountant or newly qualified ACA looking for your first step into industry - with real responsibility, exposure, and influence - this role offers an outstanding platform.
Your new role

  • Owning monthly management accounts for the newly acquired business, bringing insight and clear commentary
  • Delivering meaningful variance analysis and highlighting trends that matter
  • Supporting budgeting and forecasting as the business scales
  • Partnering with operational stakeholders to improve commercial decision-making
  • Playing a key role in post-acquisition finance integration
  • Helping align systems, reporting and controls across the wider group
  • Driving improvements to finance processes in a growing environment

  • What you'll need to succeed
    This role is ideal for someone who wants more exposure, ownership and commercial breadth than a traditional accounting role can offer.You're likely to have:
  • A professional accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA or CIMA)
  • Strong grounding in management accounting
  • A commercial mindset and confidence working with non-finance stakeholders
  • A proactive approach and appetite to take ownership
  • Strong Excel and systems capability
  • Experience in, or interest in, M&A or integration work

  • Newly qualified ACA candidates with strong commercial awareness and a desire to move into a value-adding industry role are encouraged to apply. Ideally, you will have audited owner-managed businesses or PE- backed groups. Worked with multi-entity or growing organisations and seen management accounts, forecasting and KPI's - not just year-end statutory work.

    What you'll get in return
    Hybrid working, with regular time on site to build relationships and understand the business, plus flexibility as part of a modern finance team.
  • Exposure to senior leadership and strategic decision-making
  • Involvement in acquisition integration and business transformation
  • A genuine opportunity to shape finance processes as the business scales
  • The pace and impact of a growth environment, with the backing of private equity
