TPH Global is one of the UK's leading Accounting SaaS product and Payroll service providers for the film and TV industries. We work globally with leading brands, such as Netflix, Marvel, Disney and the BBC and the team is driven by delivering quality and value to these clients, with a high level of service. \n With offices in London and Australia, we continue to grow and expand our team. We work in a flexible hybrid model with team members usually in the Twickenham office 3 days per week. \n We're searching for a hands-on Senior Management Accountant to take ownership of the day-to-day running of the UK finance function, leading a small finance team and reporting to the local Head of Operations, with a secondary line to the Australia-based fractional CFO, to keep a busy, high-volume payroll business running accurately and on time. \n The Role \n This is a hands-on role with genuine ownership. You'll run the UK finance operations that keep a busy, high-volume payroll business accurate and on time, from releasing client payments and weekly reconciliations through to month-end, while leading and supporting a finance team of three. We're a service business, and finance is part of what our clients pay for, so being responsive and easy to deal with matters here as much as technical strength. \n We expect this role will see you: \n\n • Own the finance side of the client payroll cycle, releasing payments once invoices are paid and funds reconciled, and making accurate, on-time payments to HMRC, pension providers and industry schemes (including the Directors Guild, Screen Actors Guild and Equity arrangements).\n, • Keep client funds and treasury under close watch across the accounts, making sure client money is in and reconciled before each run goes out, so wages are never released against funds that haven't landed.\n, • Run weekly bank reconciliations across multiple client accounts, resolving discrepancies and keeping everything accurate and complete.\n, • Prepare monthly management accounts, and provide budget-versus-actual and cash-flow analysis with clear, useful commentary for management.\n, • Oversee TPH's own payroll and VAT returns, and keep the weekly cycle running reliably.\n, • Lead and support a finance team of three, allocating and reviewing work, holding regular one-to-ones, and keeping the team organised and delivering to deadline.\n, • Keep core finance procedures documented and current, raising any control gaps early.\n\n Higher-level financial planning, forecasting, strategy, and year-end and audit sit with our fractional CFO, so you can focus on doing the finance work brilliantly rather than being pulled away from it. This is an ideal role for someone who genuinely loves the craft of accounting, thrives on order and accuracy, takes real pride in a clean set of books and a well-run team, and enjoys finding smarter, more automated ways to run a finance function. \n To be effective, we believe you'll need: \n\n • A qualified, finalist or strong qualified-by-experience accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).\n, • Solid experience across management and transactional accounting, reconciliations and month-end.\n, • A good understanding of payroll and related statutory obligations, including HMRC, pensions and VAT.\n, • Experience reconciling high transaction volumes and managing multiple bank accounts.\n, • Experience supervising or managing a small finance team, allocating and reviewing others' work.\n, • A clear communicator who's comfortable dealing directly with clients and stakeholders at all levels.\n, • Advanced Excel, and a commitment to using AI and finance tools to work efficiently.\n\n Experience in payroll services, a bureau environment or financial outsourcing would be a real bonus, as would familiarity with finance systems, integrations and automation tools. \n In return, you'll take a genuinely central role in a growing, global business, with supportive leadership and a fractional CFO. We're a growing, service-led business that backs people who take real ownership and deliver. You'll have the room to do the work you love, and to do it well. \n If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now via the link, including a short note introducing yourself to Rebecca, and we'll be in touch. \n No recruiters, thanks.

We are pleased to be partnering with an extremely well-known and important UK charity to recruit a Senior Management Accountant on a 7-month fixed-term contract. \n This is a hands-on management accounting role supporting a sizeable and complex retail operation through a particularly busy period, including year-end. The role sits within the Financial Planning team and will take the lead on management accounts across the retail function, working closely with both finance colleagues and a wide range of operational stakeholders. \n The retail operation is significant, with around 400 shops and a large P&L covering approximately £120m of income and £100m of costs. The organisation has also been through considerable change, including a substantial programme of shop closures, so there is plenty of complexity and variety within the role. \n About the role \n Reporting to the Retail Finance Manager, you will take ownership of high-quality monthly management accounts for the retail division, including month-end, investigation of variances, analysis and year-end preparation. \n You will work closely with budget holders across a large and varied stakeholder group, helping them to understand financial performance and providing clear, useful financial information to support decision-making. The role will also involve supporting budgeting and forecasting activity and identifying opportunities to improve processes and reporting. \n You will work closely with a part-qualified Management Accountant within the team, providing day-to-day direction and support. Formal line management is less important for this FTC, but you should be comfortable reviewing work, coaching others and helping maintain high standards across the team. \n This is a busy role with large data sets, multiple systems and a broad stakeholder base, so it would suit somebody who enjoys getting into the detail while also understanding the wider commercial and operational picture. \n About you \n You may be formally qualified or qualified by experience, but you will need a strong and demonstrable management accounting background and the ability to produce high-quality management accounts with minimal supervision. \n You are likely to have: \n\n • \n Strong management accounting, month-end and financial reporting experience \n • \n Experience working in a large or complex organisation \n • \n Advanced Excel skills and confidence manipulating large data sets \n • \n Good experience of finance systems \n • \n Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage a busy workload \n • \n Confidence working with multiple stakeholders across finance and the wider organisation \n • \n A proactive approach and an interest in continuous improvement \n • \n Experience supporting budgeting and forecasting \n\n Retail experience would be useful but is not essential. Business partnering experience would also be advantageous, particularly where you have worked closely with non-finance stakeholders. \n Contract and working arrangements \n This is a 7-month fixed-term contract, expected to run until around mid-May, covering an important period including the organisation's March year-end. \n The role is based in Stratford, with a highly flexible hybrid working model. In practice, the team would normally expect someone to be in the office around once a week, typically on a Tuesday or Wednesday. \n The salary is £47,000-£54,000, depending on experience. \n They are ideally looking for somebody who can start relatively quickly, with a start within two to four weeks preferred, although up to one month's notice can be accommodated for the right person. \n The interview process is expected to be a single-stage online competency-based interview, with interviews taking place on a rolling basis. \n There is also the possibility that the contract could be extended or potentially become permanent depending on the circumstances at the end of the FTC.
