High‑Growth, PE‑Backed Climate & Engineering Group
Yorkshire-Based | Up to 80% Remote Initially
£35,000 – £45,000 + Study Support + Exceptional Career Trajectory

Some finance roles help you tick boxes.
Others change the trajectory of your career.

This is very much the latter.

We are a newly created UK group within a well‑funded international organisation, formed through an aggressive buy‑and‑build strategy in the climate, engineering and technical services space. In an unprecedented growth journey, the group has scaled from £0 to c.£100m revenue in just over 12 months - with further acquisitions already planned.

This level of growth is rare. Even in private equity environments.
And it creates opportunity.

We’re now looking for a part‑qualified or nearly qualified CIMA/ACCA accountant to join at a pivotal moment - someone with the ambition to grow into a future finance leader, not just “do a job”.

The opportunity (why this role is special)

You’ll work directly for a highly credible Finance Director, known for developing people with potential and giving them exposure far beyond their job title.

“I don’t want someone to just produce numbers. I want to develop someone who can grow with the business and eventually lead.”
— Finance Director

From day one, you’ll be involved in both management accounting and financial accounting, gaining rare breadth at an early stage in your career. You’ll see how acquisitions work in practice, how businesses are integrated, and how financial control evolves in a fast‑moving group.

Fast forward a few years, and you won’t just have a qualification - you’ll have:

Experience of hyper‑growth
Exposure to group, divisional and acquisition accounting
Direct access to senior leadership
A genuine story of impact
A credible pathway towards Finance Manager / Financial Controller / Group roles
Potential involvement in an IPO journey

What you’ll be doing

This is a broad, hands‑on role with real responsibility, including:

Producing management accounts and financial reporting for UK divisions
Supporting financial accounting, balance sheet control and month‑end close
Owning divisional accounts for newly acquired businesses
Helping to improve, standardise and automate processes across the group
Working closely with operational leaders, providing insight and challenge
Supporting acquisition integration and bringing businesses onto group standards
Acting as a trusted finance partner to non‑finance stakeholders

You’ll be encouraged to question how things are done — and improve them.

“If you see a better way of doing something, I expect you to say it - and I’ll back you to implement it.”
— Finance Director

Who this role is for

This role is ideal for someone who is:

CIMA / ACCA part‑qualified or nearly qualified
Ambitious, curious and commercially minded
Comfortable working in a fast‑changing environment
Keen to take ownership rather than wait for instruction
Excited by growth, complexity and responsibility
Looking for development, not just stability

You don’t need to have “done it all before” - but you do need the mindset to grow into it.

Location & flexibility

Must be based in Yorkshire
Initially up to 80% remote working
Some in‑person time with the Finance Director and wider team
Flexibility now, with more structure as the group continues to scale

What’s in it for you

£35,000 – £45,000 salary (depending on experience)
Full study support
Direct mentorship from a high‑calibre Finance Director
Exceptional exposure to acquisitions and group finance
Autonomy, trust and responsibility early in your career
A genuine pathway into senior finance leadership
The chance to look back and say “I was there at the start”

In summary

If you’re looking for:

Fast learning
Real responsibility
Proper mentorship
And a career story that genuinely stands out

This is an opportunity that doesn’t come around often.
