We are seeking a commercially sharp, manufacturing-focused Cost Accountant to join our Finance team.

Margin Protection: Review projects to assess real GM vs budget
Inventory Control: Manage surplus and obsolete stock to optimise cash flow
Operational Auditing: Review labour, overtime, and rework accuracy in ERP (Syteline)
Standard Costing: Maintain and roll up standard costs to ensure accurate reporting
Stock Control: Lead cycle counts and resolve discrepancies
Global Support: Provide analytical support to international operations

What You’ll Bring

Proven experience as a Cost Accountant in manufacturing
Strong knowledge of WIP, standard costing, and variance analysis
Confident challenger mindset with the ability to influence operations
Advanced Excel and ERP/MRP systems experience (Syteline preferred)
CIMA qualified (essential)

What’s On Offer for the Cost Accountant

Competitive salary (dependent on experience)
31 days holiday (including bank holidays)
Medi-Cash plan, pension, and long service awards
Opportunity to make a direct commercial impact
