About the team

We are actively recruiting to a Senior Accountant role in the Capital and Treasury Team.

The role is part of a team that provides technical financial advice and support for the County Council’s capital programme and ensures sound Treasury processes. The programme totals £1.3bn over the next 4 years and will deliver a variety of schemes to provide and improve services and infrastructure for Hertfordshire’s residents.

This is an excellent opportunity to develop and broaden your technical and professional accountancy skills. The role offers exposure to a wide range of capital accounting, financial management and treasury activities, while providing the opportunity to influence major investment decisions and contribute to projects that make a real difference to Hertfordshire residents.

About the role

You will play a key role in the budget-setting process by reviewing capital business cases, providing constructive challenge and financial analysis, and supporting investment decisions. You will also work with services throughout the year to deliver accurate budget monitoring, forecasting and reporting, enabling effective financial management of capital schemes.

The role has significant involvement in the year-end accounts process. You will apply technical accounting guidance to prepare capital accounting adjustments, support the production of statutory accounts disclosures, and help maintain the Council's fixed asset register, ensuring accuracy and compliance.

As the finance lead on multidisciplinary project boards and governance groups, you will provide high-quality financial advice and challenge on high-profile programmes and projects. You will build strong working relationships with stakeholders across the organisation to support successful project delivery.

You will also work collaboratively with colleagues across the Capital and Treasury Team to maintain resilient treasury management processes, share knowledge, and support a joined-up approach to delivering the team's objectives.

Experience in presenting complex financial information to senior stakeholders to support proposed courses of action.

Desirable

Experience of delivering accurate financial information within strict deadlines in a complex public sector environment.
Experience of capital accounting, including supporting budget setting, budget monitoring and the production of year end accounts
Experience of Treasury Management activities including dealing.

On top of your salary, you will also receive an excellent benefits package including:

Additional information

We are changing
Hertfordshire County Council is undergoing Local Government Reorganisation (LGR). If you are employed by Hertfordshire County on 1 April 2028, it is expected that most roles will transfer to the newly-created unitary councils on existing terms and conditions under TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings – Protection of Employment) principles.

LGR is one of the biggest changes we will face in a generation. It will reshape how we work and how services are organised and gives us a real opportunity to build something better. To find out more, visit https://www.hertfordshire-lgr.co.uk/

Disability Confident
We are proud to be a Disability Confident employer and guarantee an interview to anyone disclosing a disability whose application meets the minimum criteria for the post.

English Fluency
The ability to converse at ease with members of the public and provide advice in accurate spoken English is essential for the post (for those whose language is a signed language the provision of a sign language interpreter who speaks English to the necessary standard of fluency will be required). Further information about the legal requirement can be found here.
