Job description

Finance Manager – ACA First-Time Mover Location: Milton Keynes
Salary: Up to £62,000 Excellent Benefits

Are you an ACA-qualified accountant from a Top 10 practice looking for your first move into industry? Do you want a role that offers breadth, complexity, and genuine progression? If so, this opportunity could be the perfect next step.
About the Business Our client is a small but mighty organisation in Milton Keynes, experiencing rapid growth through organic expansion and strategic acquisitions. With multiple subsidiaries and increasingly complex accounting requirements, this is a business where you’ll never be bored.
The Role As Finance Manager, you’ll work directly with the Head of Finance (ACA, Big 4), who will be a fantastic mentor and sounding board as you transition into industry. This is a role designed for potential as much as experience, giving you exposure to:
  • Consolidation across multiple entities
  • Audit and technical accounting
  • Supporting commercial finance as the business scales
  • Helping shape processes and controls in a growing group structure
Due to the pace of growth, there is a realistic opportunity to progress to Senior Finance Manager or Financial Controller within 18–24 months, and you’ll also play a key role in building a team beneath you as the finance function expands.
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Mentorship: Work closely with a Head of Finance from a Big 4 background
  • Breadth: From technical accounting to commercial finance – no two days are the same
  • Progression: Clear path to senior leadership within 2 years
  • Impact: Be part of a business shaping its future through acquisitions and growth
About You
  • ACA-qualified from a Top 10 practice
  • Strong technical grounding in audit, consolidation, and financial reporting
  • Ambitious, adaptable, and eager to make an impact in a fast-moving environment
Salary: Up to £62,000 benefits
Location: Milton Keynes
