• Preparing monthly management accounts across multiple sites, including P&L, balance sheet, cashflow and commentary

Ideally, youll already have experience as a Management Accountant or Assistant Management Accountant , with property or property management experience particularly welcome

Why join Colby River?

This isn't a role where you'll simply produce a set of accounts and move on to the next month-end.

You'll work closely with our Finance Director, accounts team, central operations and teams based at our properties, giving you genuine exposure to both the financial and operational sides of the business.

It's an opportunity to develop your commercial finance experience, build strong relationships across the organisation and have a real influence on how our properties perform.

The role is based in Altrincham , with our hybrid working policy requiring at least three days per week in the office . There may also be occasional travel to our properties and London office, expected to be less than 10% of the role.

If you're an ambitious Management Accountant or an Assistant Management Accountant ready to take the next step and want a role where you can combine strong technical accounting with genuine commercial involvement, we'd love to hear from you.
