We are recruiting a Management Accountant on behalf of an established, not-for-profit housing association based in South Manchester.

Operating across Greater Manchester, the organisation provides affordable homes and services to local communities and offers an excellent working environment, strong benefits and the opportunity to join a supportive and experienced finance team.

The Role

Working within the Finance Reporting team, the Management Accountant will provide high-quality financial information and accounting support across the organisation.

This is a varied role requiring a good grounding in management and financial accounting, strong general ledger skills and previous experience within the social housing sector .

You will also play a part in finance systems development, implementation and testing, so this would particularly suit someone who enjoys improving processes and systems as well as delivering accurate financial information.

• Strong Excel skills, including the practical application of a range of functions
• A recognised accounting background – part-qualified ACCA, ACA or CIMA, AAT qualified, or qualified by experience
• Good communication skills and the ability to work effectively with colleagues across the organisation

A fully qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA accountant would be advantageous but is not essential.

Salary & Benefits

In return, the organisation offers:

• £47,000 salary
• 35-hour working week
• Excellent contributory pension scheme
• Healthcare plan
• 25 days' annual leave, increasing to 30 days with length of service
