At Forge Holiday Group, we don’t just do holidays, we create memories. With market-leading brands like Sykes Holiday Cottages, Forest Holidays, and Bachcare in New Zealand, we’re 1,700+ strong and powered by four values: One Business One Team, Keep it Simple, Grow & Learn, Sustainable Impact.

We’re looking for a Group Project Accountant to join our Finance Reporting & Operational Team and play a key role in shaping the future of our financial processes.

What You Need to Know:

Salary: Up to £68,000 per annum

About the Role:
As a Group Project Accountant (12-month Fixed Term Contract), you’ll work directly with the Head of International Group Reporting to drive transformation across our financial reporting function.
This is a highly visible, technical role where you’ll lead complex projects, enhance processes, and ensure our reporting remains robust, compliant, and future-ready. You’ll combine strong IFRS expertise with a commercial mindset to deliver meaningful improvements across the Group.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Impact: Drive real change across Group Finance, improving processes that influence key business decisions
Innovation: Leverage technology and AI to modernise reporting and enhance efficiency
Exposure: Work across multiple areas including statutory reporting, consolidation, and investor reporting
Collaboration: Partner with finance teams across the business to deliver high-impact projects

Leading transformation initiatives across Group Finance, improving processes and documentation
Enhancing:
- Year-end statutory accounts & consolidation
- Month-end and investor reporting
- Risk management and transfer pricing
- Accounting policies and governance
Identifying opportunities to leverage technology and AI for efficiency gains
Reviewing and strengthening capitalisation policies and frameworks (fixed assets, software, site planning)
Collaborating with divisional finance teams to drive consistency and best practice
Supporting wider finance projects and contributing to continuous improvement
Ensuring all outputs comply with IFRS and relevant tax legislation

What We’re Looking For:
Essential:

Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA) with 2+ years post-qualification experience
Strong technical knowledge of IFRS and Group reporting
Proven experience leading complex finance projects
Consolidation experience within a Group environment
Track record of improving processes and strengthening controls
Advanced Excel skills
Experience reviewing work and providing clear, constructive feedback
Highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage competing priorities
Proactive, self-motivated, and solutions-focused

Desirable:

Experience with SAP
Background in Group Technical Accounting (e.g. transfer pricing, recharges, shareholder reporting)

Forge Holiday Group Benefits:

Annual bonus scheme
✈️ 33 days’ holiday (including bank holidays), plus up to 5 extra with long service
Option to purchase additional holiday
Your birthday off
2 volunteering days per year
Enhanced parental leave (24 weeks maternity, 3 weeks paternity at full pay)
Pension with employer contributions
Discounted stays at Forest Holidays & Sykes Cottages
️ Exclusive discounts to support your wellbeing
Health cash plan & life assurance
Training & development opportunities
24/7 mental health support
️ On-site gym & parking (Chester HQ, near train station)
Employee savings scheme
Long service awards & company events

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. If you need any adjustments during the recruitment process, just let us know.
