Senior Financial Accountant – In-House Investment Group – New Permanent Role!

• Ready for a role that really stands out from the crowd?!

• Are you a recently (up to c. 5 year PQE) qualified accountant who’s gained experience in fund accounting, internal finance or audit who is hungry for more than just another reporting role?

• Would you thrive in a high-performing investment group where you can stretch across financial control, FP&A and transformation initiatives?

Our client is a private investment group with a reputation for backing innovative ventures across PE, VC, Technology and more. They are now looking for a bright, curious and adaptable Senior Financial Accountant to join their Group Finance function in Jersey.

This isn’t a role defined by rigid checklists. It’s a chance to take ownership of core financial accounting across multiple entities while also gaining exposure to broader commercial areas such as FP&A, budgeting, transformation and systems improvements.

The Role

Reporting to the Jersey Financial Controller, you’ll become a key part of a lean but high-impact team. Day-to-day, you’ll:

• Lead the financial accounting for various group and affiliated entities
• Prepare monthly management accounts and support the close process
• Assist with budgeting, reforecasting and insightful analysis
• Contribute to audit planning and financial reporting under multiple accounting standards
• Support the finance transformation programme, identifying ways to improve processes and leverage technology
• Liaise across jurisdictions including Ireland, US, UK and other European jurisdictions

The Ideal Candidate

This role isn’t about ticking boxes. Instead, our client is seeking someone with the right mindset:

• Recently qualified (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with 0- 5 years’ PQE
• Experience in audit, fund services or internal finance
• Eager to develop skills beyond the typical month-end grind
• Adaptable and self-motivated with a natural curiosity
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, non-hierarchical environment
• A strong communicator who enjoys collaboration

Why Join?

• Work closely with senior leaders: You’ll support the Jersey FC directly, gaining exceptional exposure
• Be more than a cog: Your role matters and spans accounting, operations and transformation
• Long-term opportunity: This firm has a strong track record of developing candidates!
• Results-driven culture: It’s about maturity and accountability, not clocking in and out
• Dynamic and varied work: No two weeks are the same, with opportunities to get involved across finance and operations

Whether you’re moving out of practice or stepping up from an internal role, this is a unique opportunity to join a world-class team and truly grow your finance career.
