Job Description

Senior Management Accountant – Bristol (Hybrid)

Core3 are delighted to partner with a market-leading, sustainably-focused construction business to recruit a Senior Management Accountant opportunity based in North Bristol. £58,000 + bonus, generous pension, and hybrid working.

Why join our client?

This is an opportunity to join one of the UK’s largest and most respected employers in the construction materials space. The business is committed to building a sustainable future, pioneering low-carbon solutions and investing in its people. With a 4,000-strong workforce and a national footprint, it’s a role offering scale, complexity, and real career progression.

You’ll be joining a high-performing Shared Service Centre that is vital to the integrity of the company’s monthly management reporting, where continuous improvement, collaboration, and development are at the heart of the culture. Hybrid working, free on-site parking, and a strong commitment to work-life balance make this a brilliant long-term move.

How you’ll make an impact

This is a key leadership role within the management accounts function, with responsibility for the accuracy, delivery, and analysis of monthly results for a core business line. You’ll lead a team of part-qualified accountants while championing best practice, driving process efficiencies, and acting as a subject matter expert across the wider finance team.

• Prepare and own timely and accurate monthly management accounts in line with internal and group reporting standards.

• Lead and develop a team of part-qualified accountants, supporting their technical and professional growth.

• Drive standardisation, resource optimisation, and operational efficiencies across the team.

• Take ownership for the integrity of key balance sheet accounts and ensure clear communication across finance and operational stakeholders.

• Build strong working relationships with business line controllers, analysts, and site leadership.

• Support continuous improvement initiatives, identifying and implementing accounting and systems process improvements.

• Co-ordinate internal controls and audit activities across the SSC, ensuring deadlines and action plans are met.

Why our client is excited about you

You’re a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) with strong experience in management accounting and reporting. A confident communicator and team leader, you’re passionate about developing others and improving processes. You’re equally comfortable getting into the detail or stepping back to consider the bigger picture. Ideally, you’ll bring experience of working in a shared service or large multi-site business and enjoy cross-functional collaboration.

What you’ll get in return

• £58,000 salary

• Annual bonus incentives

• Hybrid working from North Bristol (with free parking and on-site café)

• 27 days holiday + bank holidays (with holiday purchase options and sabbaticals available)

• Generous pension and life assurance

• Enhanced family-friendly policies

• Paid volunteering days and active employee networks (LGBTQ+, Women in STEM, Armed Forces, and more)

We invite applications from all qualified candidates who believe they meet the requirements of the role, while supporting and promoting equality and diversity to create an inclusive working environment for all.
