Reporting to the Financial Controller, you’ll be part of a collaborative Finance team and take ownership of a diverse range of accounting, reconciliation, reporting and analysis activities. This is a great opportunity for an accountant who has established their foundations and is ready to broaden their experience in a financial services environment.
A key focus of the position is preparing accurate monthly management accounts and providing meaningful financial information to support the business. You’ll also gain exposure to investment accounting, statutory accounts, regulatory reporting and internal and external audit.
Your responsibilities will include:
-
Preparing monthly management accounts, including P&L, Balance Sheet and variance analysis

- Maintaining the Fixed Asset Register
- Providing regular and ad hoc financial support to management and other areas of the business
- Contributing to operational and strategic projects across KeyInvest.

Ideally, you’ll bring:
-
A degree in Accounting, Commerce or a related discipline
- At least 2 years’ experience in an accounting role or public practice
- Experience in financial services
- CPA, CA or another relevant postgraduate qualification, or be working towards one

You’ll work as part of a close-knit team alongside experienced finance professionals, while building your knowledge and experience across management accounting, investments, regulatory reporting and the broader financial services environment.
We value people who are curious, collaborative and willing to contribute ideas about how we can work smarter and improve the way financial information supports our business.
If you’re looking for your next step and want a role where you can continue developing your technical accounting skills while gaining broader commercial experience, we’d love to hear from you.
