A unique opportunity to join a highly respected Welsh organisation and make a genuine impact through finance.
Mrwell Talent Solutions are delighted to be partnering with a highly respected and values-driven organisation based in Cardiff, as they look to appoint an experienced Management Accountant to join their finance team on a permanent basis. This is not your typical Management Accountant position. Working within an organisation that plays an important role in the arts and cultural landscape across Wales, youll be joining a friendly and collaborative finance team where your work will genuinely contribute to something meaningful. Our client is looking for the right person rather than simply the right CV and, importantly, they are prepared to wait for the right candidate. So, if youre considering your next move but dont want to rush into the wrong opportunity, this could be one worth exploring.
The Opportunity
Reporting closely into the senior finance team, youll work alongside the Finance Director and Finance Business Partner, supporting both the core organisation and its trading subsidiary. Youll be taking over from a long-standing and highly valued member of the team who is retiring, giving you the opportunity to step into a well-established role and build on an excellent foundation.
The role offers genuine variety, combining technical management accounting, financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, analysis and business partnering, alongside the opportunity to support wider finance transformation projects. With multiple departments, projects, income streams and a trading subsidiary, this is a varied and intellectually engaging environment where there is plenty to get involved with.
What will you be doing?
Producing accurate and insightful monthly management accounts and financial reports
Supporting budgeting and forecasting across multiple departments, projects and cost centres

About You

Excellent budgeting, forecasting and analytical skills
Strong Excel capabilities
Experience working with a large integrated ERP system; SAP experience would be particularly advantageous

The ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines effectively
A proactive, collaborative and solutions-focused approach
We will also consider candidates who are qualified by experience and have gained substantial experience in a similar Management Accountant position.
