We have an exciting new role within our growing Business Services & Outsourcing team that could be your perfect fit.

As a senior member of the Business Services & Outsourcing team, we are looking for someone who is technically-savvy and well-versed in both FRS 102 and IFRS. The role will involve:

• Leading the accounts and financial reporting service line on a portfolio of audited clients, whilst being closely supported by Assistant Managers. Delivering a slick and efficient process from start to finish, building good working relationships with both clients and internal teams, as well as working capital management.
• Completing technical reviews of FRS 102, FRS 101 and consolidated IFRS statutory accounts.
• Supporting the wider BS&O team with technical queries, researching complex areas and finding solutions, as well as playing a key role in the coaching and development of the team.
• Overseeing Mid-Market added-value technical projects, such as FRS 102 to IFRS conversion.
• Playing a key role in our go-to-market strategy for Mid-Market businesses, growing our offering and client base in the accounts and financial reporting space.

By joining us you will be working with a team and company that inspires you and be given an active opportunity to shape the future of our company and encouraged to be innovative.

At Cooper Parry, we’re in it together. All we ask of our people is that they play all in.

A simple notion, but an irreplaceable part of what makes CP, CP.

You will need to be ACA/ACCA or equivalent qualified. But above all, you will need to be passionate about client experience, constantly looking for ways to add more value to our clients. Ideally, you will have:

• Experience in a senior role, delivering financial reporting advisory services, preparing statutory accounts, or providing audit support to complex organisations.
• Strong project and time management skills, with a track record of successfully overseeing a diverse client portfolio and meeting tight deadlines.
• Demonstrated business development capability, with the ability to identify opportunities and convert them into successful engagements.
• Well-versed in FRS 102 and IFRS reporting frameworks, including technical areas such as accounting for long term contracts, share-based payments, group reconstructions etc.
• Ability to build strong client relationships and deliver an outstanding client experience.
• Umpf! A genuine passion and drive for "getting stuff done", someone with excellent project management and communications skills.
• Have a “play all in” team spirit to support the wider department, with an ability to take a collaborative approach with clients and with the rest of the BS&O team.
• Have a hunger for continuous improvement and a curiosity for finding the best way of doing things!
