Job Description

Founded in 2012, LADbible Group is redefining entertainment and news for a social generation. Our global community engages with our content–spanning editorial, video, documentary and live – we reach 1 billion people each and every month. Our mission is to give the youth generation a voice by building communities that laugh, think and act. Using all major platforms, we’ve rapidly risen to become one of the world's largest publishers. We’re hiring a Group Technical Accountant into a newly created role at a high-growth, fast-evolving business. As the company scales, so does the complexity of its financial reporting, audit requirements, and internal processes. Right now, key individuals are stretched—particularly during audit and reporting cycles—creating a clear need for an additional technically strong accountant to step in, take ownership, and help build a more sustainable, efficient function. This role offers a unique opportunity to take real ownership early, working closely with senior stakeholders while shaping how reporting and audit processes evolve as the business grows.

Job Responsibility

  • Supporting and eventually owning elements of external financial reporting, including statutory accounts and disclosures
  • Preparing clear, well-reasoned accounting papers and technical positions
  • Acting as a key contact for auditors, helping manage queries and streamline the audit process
  • Playing a central role in month-end close, including technically complex areas
  • Supporting internal reporting, including Board and senior leadership packs
  • Contributing to financial modelling and analysis where required
  • Taking ownership of specific areas such as payroll accounting, leases, share-based payments (EBT), and other technical topics
  • Supporting ongoing ERP transformation and process improvement projects
  • Helping to drive efficiencies and automation across reporting

Requirements

  • ACA or ACCA qualified (or equivalent)
  • Background in audit or financial reporting
  • Strong understanding of IFRS and statutory reporting
  • Experience preparing or reviewing accounts or audit deliverables
  • Confident communicator, able to explain accounting positions clearly

Nice to have

  • First or second move from a Top 10 audit firm (e.g. Big 4)
  • Exposure to internal reporting or month-end processes
  • Experience working in a large or fast-paced organisation
