Financial Accountant - Exeter / Hybrid - £45,000 - £50,000 + Excellent Benefits - Full time - Permanent
A fantastic opportunity has arisen with one of Exeter's most prestigious and successful professional services businesses, and we're delighted to be managing this appointment on an exclusive basis. This is a replacement hire following an internal move and represents a genuine opportunity for the right candidate to step into a well-established, high performing team and make the role their own.
Financial accounting roles in the South West are amongst the hardest to fill in our market. Why? Partly because the region doesn't naturally produce large numbers of candidates with strong statutory accounting experience, and partly because the job title itself can be misleading, putting off commercially minded candidates who assume it means heads down, purely analytical work with little broader engagement. Neither of those things are true of this opportunity, and that's exactly why it's worth reading on.
Our client is one of Exeter's most prestigious and successful professional services businesses, with a global reach and a genuine track record of developing its people. They are growing rapidly, they know what good looks like, and they are prepared to go well beyond the Exeter market average to attract it. That means a salary and benefits package that genuinely reflects the calibre of candidate they're looking for, hybrid working, comprehensive CPD and a genuine commitment to ongoing learning and development. More importantly, this is a business that can offer a genuinely long term career, with development opportunities available across the UK and potentially beyond for those who want them.
The role itself is broader than the title might suggest. Yes, the statutory and corporate accounting elements are central, but this is far from a narrow technical position. You'll also be involved in management accounts review, working directly with clients, mentoring and developing junior members of the team, and contributing to research into potential new income streams. It's a role with real variety, real responsibility and real scope to grow.
In terms of the ideal candidate, we're focusing on two profiles: experienced financial accountants or those with strong analytical backgrounds looking to develop their career in a high-quality industry environment, and practice based candidates, ideally with a background in audit or corporate finance, who are ready to make the move into industry. A professional qualification is essential, with ACA, ACCA or CIMA all equally appropriate, either recently qualified or with up to four years post qualified experience. Strong technical accounting skills, commercial awareness, experience across various reporting standards and a confident IT aptitude are all essential. Exceptional communication skills and a genuine appetite for career progression will be the clincher.
Curious? I'd love to tell you more. Please contact Dan Saunders quoting reference DS11181 . All enquiries will be treated in the strictest confidence, and full client disclosure along with a detailed role specification will be shared with all potentially suitable candidates.
This role may also be of interest to those with experience or job titles including: Financial Accountant, Management Accountant, Group Accountant, Reporting Accountant, Corporate Accountant, Finance Manager, Senior Accountant, Audit Manager, Audit Senior, Corporate Finance Executive, Practice Accountant or Newly Qualified Accountant seeking their first move into industry.
