Financial Accountant (12-Month FTC) | High-Growth Digital Sports Media Business | Manchester \n \n Harmonic are delighted to be partnering on an exclusive basis with one of the UK's fastest-growing digital sports media businesses, in the search for a Financial Accountant to join their Manchester-based finance team. This is a 12-month fixed term contract with a genuine chance of becoming permanent. It suits a tech-savvy, self-starting finance professional who wants real ownership in a fast-moving media environment. \n \n The Business: \n \n Our client is a digital media business founded in 2021. It has quickly become one of the most-watched sports content brands in the world, with tens of millions of monthly views across its channels. It is known for long-form conversations with the biggest names in sport, fan-led debate and hit original series. The team is around 50 people and growing quickly. \n \n The business was acquired by a major UK media group last year. More recently, it acquired a portfolio of early-stage content brands of its own. The result is an interesting and complex structure: a small, creative business sitting inside a large corporate group, which in turn owns very young content companies. Finance sits at the centre of all of this. The team is led by an experienced CFO-level finance leader and a Head of Finance, supported by a Financial Accountant who comes from a production accounting background. \n \n The Role: \n \n This hire will work alongside the existing Financial Accountant and complement their skill set. Our client is especially keen to bring in someone with strong Excel skills who is comfortable with finance systems, AI tools and automation. You would help shape how the finance function works as it integrates into the wider group. \n Your main focus will be the newly acquired content companies. You will own their month-end accounts, bring structure to purchase ordering and intercompany recharges, and help migrate the business onto the group's finance system. The migration is targeted for early November. The group's processes and timelines also need to be followed, so you will need to balance building new processes with keeping to the group's standards. \n Senior finance leadership is not always based in Manchester, so you will need the maturity and self-discipline to manage your own workload with limited day-to-day oversight. Personality, curiosity and fit with the culture carry real weight, and the more you want to take on, the more responsibility is available. \n \n Main Duties: \n\n • Own the month-end accounts for two recently acquired content companies, including journals, accruals and reconciliations\n, • Manage the purchase order process end to end, making sure spend is properly approved, tracked and recorded\n, • Process and reconcile intercompany recharges across the group structure\n, • Support the migration of finance processes and data onto the group's system (Workday), targeted for early November\n, • Prepare cash flow forecasts and monitor cash across the entities\n, • Work with production teams on forecasting and cost visibility\n, • Design and put in place new processes and controls for the acquired entities, while keeping to group processes and timelines\n, • Find opportunities to improve and automate finance processes, using Excel, AI tools and system functionality\n, • Take on more responsibility across the wider finance function as your capacity and appetite allow\n\n \n What we need to see (essential): \n\n • ACCA / ACA / CIMA - Finalist or Qualified by Experience\n, • Strong Excel skills and a real interest in finance systems, AI tools and automation\n, • A proactive, hands-on approach, with a willingness to take ownership and pick up more as the role develops\n, • Strong communication skills and confidence working with non-finance and creative teams\n\n \n What we'd like to see (bonus): \n\n • Experience in a media, broadcast, digital content or production environment\n, • Hands-on Workday experience\n, • An interest in sports media culture\n\n \n Salary: £45,000 - £50,000 (£55,000 for perfect candidate) \n \n Contract Length: 12-month fixed term contract, full-time, with potential to become permanent \n \n Location: Manchester - four days per week in the office and one day working from home, with a flexible approach to this. \n \n Start Date: ASAP ideal - up to one month's notice considered \n \n If this role is of interest, please apply online or email me at \n At Harmonic, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace. We actively welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds and assure you that every candidate will be thoughtfully considered for the roles we represent, without regard to race, religion, gender expression, disability, or sexual orientation.

Accounts and Audit Manager \n Manchester | Hybrid | Competitive Salary + Clear Senior Leadership Progression \n I'm currently working with an established North West accountancy practice that is looking to appoint an Accounts and Audit Manager who wants to take their career in a slightly different direction. \n This role could be particularly well suited to an ACA or ACCA qualified accountant who enjoys audit, but doesn't necessarily want their career to remain heavily audit-focused. \n The firm is looking for someone who wants to take ownership of a portfolio of clients, become more involved in accounts and client advisory work, and build relationships that go beyond the year-end audit. \n Why this role is interesting \n You'll still have responsibility for running audits from planning through to completion and sign-off, but the wider role is much more client-focused. \n You'll be the day-to-day contact for a portfolio of owner-managed businesses, groups and not-for-profit organisations, dealing with everything from statutory accounts and management accounts through to VAT, corporation tax and general advisory queries. \n There is also exposure to more specialist work, including M&A, complex tax and forensic assignments, giving you the opportunity to broaden your experience rather than becoming pigeonholed into audit. \n Most importantly, there is a clear route to Senior Manager and ultimately the Senior Leadership Team. The practice has a strong track record of promoting internally, so this is a role with genuine long-term progression attached to it. \n The role \n You'll be responsible for: \n\n • Managing audits from planning and risk assessment through to completion\n, • Managing your own portfolio and becoming a trusted day-to-day client contact\n, • Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts under FRS 102 and FRS 105\n, • Working on group accounts and consolidations where required\n, • Preparing and reviewing corporation tax computations and returns\n, • Supporting clients with management accounts, VAT and wider advisory queries\n, • Liaising with HMRC, solicitors, banks and other professional advisers\n, • Reviewing junior team members' work and supporting their development\n, • Helping with workflow planning, deadlines and improving internal processes\n, • Working closely with the Audit Director while developing greater autonomy across your portfolio\n\n What they're looking for \n You'll need to be ACA or ACCA qualified, with solid UK practice experience covering both audit and accounts. \n The key thing is personality and career direction. They're looking for someone who enjoys dealing with clients, wants greater commercial exposure and is interested in developing beyond a traditional audit role. \n You'll ideally have: \n\n • Strong audit and accounts experience within practice\n, • Experience managing your own client portfolio\n, • Previous experience reviewing or supervising junior staff\n, • Good knowledge of statutory accounts and corporation tax\n, • Confidence using cloud accounting software, particularly Xero\n, • Strong communication skills and a genuine interest in client relationships\n, • CCH experience would be useful, but isn't essential\n, • A full UK driving licence\n\n The package \n\n • Competitive salary, dependent on experience and qualification\n, • Hybrid working\n, • Clear progression to Senior Manager\n, • Genuine opportunity to join the Senior Leadership Team\n, • Exposure to M&A, complex tax and forensic assignments\n, • Modern Salford offices with excellent tram and rail connections\n, • A supportive environment where internal progression is actively encouraged\n\n If you're an experienced audit professional who enjoys the technical side but would rather spend more of your career working with clients, advising businesses and developing your accounts experience, this is worth a conversation. \n It's a particularly good opportunity for someone who wants to step away from a purely audit-led career without stepping backwards, while having a clearly defined route into senior leadership. \n Interested? Get in touch for a confidential conversation.

Finance DirectorManchester / North West \n £25m+ revenue | c.20% annual growth | International reach | Significant future potential \n This is a great opportunity for an ambitious Finance Director to join a highly successful, values-led business at an exciting point in its growth journey. \n This is a mid tier business that has consistently delivered around 20% year-on-year growth, with revenues doubling every few years. It has an international impact, works on complex and meaningful projects. \n The ambition is clear: continue to grow, invest and build something sustainable for the long term. \n The role \n This isn't simply a role focused on producing the numbers. \n The successful candidate will become a key commercial adviser to the established leadership team, helping the Board understand where the business is heading, what the future could look like and what decisions need to be made to get there. \n You'll be expected to commercially model the future, challenge thinking, provide insight and help shape the next phase of the business. \n There is also potential for the business to consider acquisitions and/or external investment in the future, making this a particularly interesting time to join. \n Initially, the Finance Director won't sit on the main Board, but main Board potential is absolutely there for the right individual. \n What are they looking for? \n This could suit an established FD who still has plenty of ambition and wants to continue developing their experience within a growing, entrepreneurial environment. \n Equally, it could suit a strong Financial Controller / Head of Finance who is ready to step up into their first FD position. \n What's important is the mindset. \n We're looking for someone who: \n\n • Has a strong growth and commercial mindset\n, • Can build trust and credibility with an established leadership team\n, • Is comfortable challenging and influencing rather than simply reporting\n, • Can bring change at the right pace\n, • Enjoys modelling scenarios and helping shape strategic decisions\n, • Wants to grow with the business and play a genuine role in its future\n, • Understands that strong performance will be recognised and rewarded\n\n The culture \n This is a genuinely collaborative and values-led organisation. \n There's a strong emphasis on developing people, collaboration rather than hierarchy and creating long-term relationships with clients. \n The business invests heavily in its people through development programmes, mentoring, coaching, professional qualifications and career pathways. Employee experience is clearly important, with a strong track record of employee engagement and a range of benefits and development opportunities. \n This is an opportunity for someone who wants more than a Finance Director title - someone who wants to help shape what the business becomes next. \n Ideally, the successful candidate will be in place by early January 2027. \n If you're an ambitious Finance Director, or a high-calibre finance leader ready for that next step, and you're looking for a genuinely challenging and rewarding opportunity, I'd be keen to hear from you. \n Apply now or contact Gareth Boyd at Adele Carr Executive for a confidential conversation
