Job Description

Three Bridges Recruitment is delighted to be partnering with a high-profile charitable organisation in Dundee to recruit a newly created Management Accountant role.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the organisation at a pivotal time. With significant projects underway and a busy programme of community initiatives, the finance function is evolving. This role fills a crucial gap within the team and offers genuine scope for growth and development.

Why Work Here?

  • Salary £35,000 – £39,000 DOE
  • 38 days holiday including bank holidays
  • Hybrid working, typically 2–3 days in the office
  • Corporate gym membership
  • Cycle to Work and Electric Car schemes
  • Employee discount scheme and café discounts

The Job

Reporting directly to the Head of Finance, this is a broad management accounting role within a small but ambitious finance team. The position has no direct line management responsibility but will work closely with finance assistants and operational colleagues.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Producing accurate monthly management accounts with variance analysis and commentary
  • Supporting budgeting and forecasting processes
  • Partnering with non-finance colleagues across programmes, fundraising and commercial operations
  • Monitoring grant-funded projects and restricted income
  • Ensuring compliance with funder reporting requirements
  • Supporting VAT, Gift Aid and wider tax compliance
  • Maintaining strong financial controls and improving processes
  • Assisting with year-end and audit processes
  • Supporting cashflow management and payment runs
  • Helping to strengthen systems and reporting processes

This role requires someone comfortable balancing hands-on transactional oversight with higher-level financial analysis and business partnering.

You

This role will suit a proactive and personable finance professional who enjoys working in a mission-led organisation.

You will ideally bring:

  • Part-qualified (ACCA/CIMA/ACA) or qualified by experience
  • Strong management accounting experience
  • Experience in VAT and compliance
  • Confidence producing reports for non-finance stakeholders
  • The ability to explain financial information clearly, without jargon
  • A flexible, responsive approach in a busy environment
  • Experience supporting or guiding junior finance staff

Charity or non-profit exposure is highly desirable, whether through work or volunteering, as understanding impact-driven organisations is important to the role.

Experience with Sage Intacct would be beneficial but is not essential.

At Three Bridges Recruitment, our values include striving for brilliance and being relatable. We are committed to delivering an excellent candidate experience and ensuring this opportunity is right for you.

If this role is of interest, please apply with your most up-to-date CV or contact us for a confidential discussion.
