Job Description:

Goodman Masson are searching for a Group Finance Manager to join a recently established, global Private Equity firm based in London. This is a fantastic opportunity for a qualified accountant to step into a broad, high-impact role within a fast-growing investment platform, working closely with the CFO and senior leadership across all aspects of group finance and operations. The role is broad, hands-on and ownership-led, with responsibility for overseeing group reporting, budgeting and forecasting, treasury, tax and operational finance across a multi-jurisdictional management company structure. While core processing and bookkeeping are outsourced, the successful candidate will play a central oversight role — reviewing outputs, maintaining control, and working closely with teams of local accountants and third-party providers across multiple jurisdictions. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys getting stuck in, picking things up quickly and taking responsibility for running with complex pieces of work. The firm offers significant exposure to senior stakeholders, genuine autonomy and a clear path for progression within a high-growth Private Equity business.

Job Responsibility:

Oversight and review of monthly management accounts across all group entities, working closely with outsourced accounting teams
Day-to-day coordination and management of local accountants and third-party providers across multiple jurisdictions
Preparation and review of quarterly group consolidations and shareholder reporting packs
Ownership of the annual group audit process, alongside local statutory audits where applicable
Management of the group-wide budgeting and forecasting process, including regular review sessions with senior management
Preparation and presentation of quarterly budget and performance updates to shareholders alongside the CFO
Assessment of new accounting standards and oversight of their implementation across the group
Oversight of corporate, indirect and payroll taxes, working closely with external tax advisors
Support preparation and review of regulatory and compliance reporting requirements across the group
Maintenance and continuous improvement of group reporting frameworks, systems and internal controls
Oversight of cash and treasury management across all group entities
Review and authorisation of payment runs and cash movements
Review and approval of monthly payroll across the group
Oversight of internal controls relating to supplier invoice approvals and payments
Oversight of billing and collection across multiple revenue streams
Close collaboration with Legal and Compliance teams on day-to-day operational matters
Management of the group’s FX exposure and hedging strategy

Requirements:

Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA) with 2–3 years’ post-qualification experience
Prior experience within Financial Services is essential, ideally gained in Private Equity, Investment Management or a related investment-led environment
Relevant experience within a Group Finance or multi-entity finance function
Strong technical accounting skills, with the ability to review, challenge and improve work produced by others
Highly organised with excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities
Strong Excel capability
Clear, confident verbal and written communication skills
Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, evolving environment and happy to take ownership rather than wait for instruction
Strong stakeholder management skills, including experience working with senior management and external advisors
Able to build effective working relationships with local finance teams across multiple jurisdictions
Proactive, practical and solutions-focused, with a willingness to roll up sleeves and get involved where needed
