• Proven end-to-end ownership of a month-end management accounts process, including reviewing, reconciling, and standing behind the numbers.
• Strong Excel skills, with the ability to handle large datasets and produce clean reporting outputs.
• High attention to detail and the discipline to self-review before anything is finalized.
• Ability to work autonomously, manage competing deadlines, and escalate issues appropriately.
• Comfortable collaborating with remote stakeholders across different time zones.

• Exposure to US GAAP or experience supporting a non-UK entity.
