Due to internal progression within our finance team, Ashcourt Group is looking for a high‑calibre Management Accountant to step into a key role at a pivotal time for the business. We’re growing rapidly across the North, and this role sits right at the heart of that growth. You’ll be joining a business that invests in its people, promotes from within, and gives ambitious individuals room to grow as the company expands.

The Opportunity

As Management Accountant, you’ll deliver high‑quality management information that supports both operational and strategic decision‑making across the group. You’ll own the month‑end process, maintain strong financial control, and provide insightful analysis to senior and non‑finance stakeholders.

• Delivering clear, meaningful variance analysis against budget, forecast, and prior periods
• Providing financial insight that supports effective decision‑making and cost control across the business
• Working closely with the wider finance team to ensure consistency and accuracy across group reporting
• Supporting internal and external audits with confidence and clarity
• Contributing to continuous improvement across finance processes, controls, and reporting

Who We’re Looking For

• Part‑qualified or fully qualified (CIMA / ACCA / ACA or equivalent)
• Ideally experienced within the construction industry or a similar project‑based environment
• Strong technically, but equally comfortable communicating with non‑finance stakeholders
• Motivated, proactive, and keen to develop within a fast‑growing business

Why Ashcourt Group?

• Completive staring from £45,000, depending on experience
• Employee benefits app with discounts on gyms, restaurants, and shops
• Access to a virtual 24/7 GP
• Employee Assistance Programme for wellbeing support
• Rapid expansion across the North means genuine opportunities to progress
• You’ll have visibility, responsibility, and the chance to shape how finance supports the business
• Occasional travel to our Prudhoe office and Head Office near York
