Management Accountant

Shearline Precision Engineering is looking to recruit a Management Accountant, who will be the right-hand person to our Financial Controller.

We are looking to appoint an experienced and commercially minded Management Accountant who ideally has manufacturing experience.

The main Duties and Responsibilities will initially include:

• Production of weekly sales and margin reports, highlighting work that is not achieving minimum profit levels.
• Monthly Management accounts – including reconciliation of control accounts, accruals and prepayments.
• Monthly reporting of results and variances, as well as providing relevant feedback to budget holders.
• Investigating and analysing estimated job costs to actual.
• Providing feedback and analysis on over-running jobs.
• Stock Valuation– establishing and updating standard costs, reporting and investigating slow moving stock, identifying and reporting over-runs, supporting the rolling stock take process.
• Processing and reconciliation of VAT Returns.

As a large sub-contract organisation, we manufacture a diverse and numerous range of parts to customer specification, so a good understanding of BOMS and Routers is key. We are a small finance team and there will be occasions where cover is needed for more transactional tasks such as sales invoicing, daily cash flows and updating bank transactions.

The ideal candidate would have manufacturing experience and an understanding of BOMS and Routers, they will be quick to learn and not afraid to ask questions. Attention to detail is a must.
