<p><strong>Management Accountant | Transport & Infrastructure | Central London (Hybrid) | £55,000 - £60,000</strong></p><p> </p><p>Robert Half are partnering with a major operator of one of London's rail networks to recruit a hands-on Management Accountant.</p><p> </p><p>This is a <strong>full management accounting role</strong> with complete ownership of the P&L and month-end process for your area. It's a true management accounting position with significant <strong>business partnering exposure</strong> - you'll work closely with operational budget holders, including the Head of Operations, challenging spend, influencing decisions, and presenting your numbers confidently to the Finance Director.</p><p> </p><p>Because this is a <strong>cost-focused business</strong>, there is no revenue element - the focus is on controlling costs, analysing variances, and managing spend effectively. You'll work with <strong>large volumes of data</strong>, complex cost structures, and regular overtime analysis across a high-headcount environment, so experience in a larger or complex organisation is essential.</p><p> </p><p>Alongside a strong finance team and a visible role in the business, you'll also enjoy generous benefits and development opportunities.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>📊</strong><strong> About the Position</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>You will be responsible for:</p><ul><li>Full ownership of the P&L and month-end process for your area.<br /> * Preparing accurate management accounts with clear variance analysis and actionable insight.<br /> * Partnering with operational teams to control spend, analyse costs, and support commercially sound decisions.<br /> * Supporting quarterly forecasts, annual budgets, and business planning cycles.<br /> * Processing accruals, provisions, and reconciling key control accounts.<br /> * Producing ad hoc analysis to support operational and strategic decision-making.</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>📋</strong><strong> What We're Looking For</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><ul><li><strong>Strong preference for a qualified accountant (ACCA or CIMA), but part-qualified candidates with extensive management accounting experience of 5+ years will also be considered.</strong><br /> * Proven experience in a large or complex organisation managing full P&L and month-end processes.<br /> * Strong business partnering skills - able to challenge senior stakeholders and influence operational decisions.<br /> * Excellent analytical skills with the ability to handle high volumes of data and present insights clearly.<br /> * Attention to detail, accuracy, and process discipline.<br /> * Proactive, commercially minded, and comfortable in a fast-paced environment.<br /> * <strong>This is not an entry-level role - we are looking for candidates with significant hands-on management accounting experience.</strong><br /> * <strong>Experience from larger, complex organisations handling high-volume financial data is essential. Candidates from smaller organisations are unlikely to meet the requirements.</strong></li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>🤝</strong><strong> Here's What's Waiting for You</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><ul><li>Hybrid working - flexible office/home split.<br /> * A visible, high-impact role with direct influence over operational spend and decision-making.<br /> * The chance to develop your business partnering skills and work closely with senior operational and finance leaders.<br /> * A collaborative, supportive finance team that encourages development and progression.<br /> * Exposure to complex, high-volume financial data and the opportunity to bring structure, insight, and efficiency to the business.</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>💼</strong><strong> Why This Role Could Be Your Next Move</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>This is an excellent opportunity for a Management Accountant who wants full ownership of their P&L, enjoys business partnering, and thrives on analysing complex cost structures in a high-volume operational environment.
