Job Description

We are St Helens Borough Council

Located in the heart of the Northwest close to Liverpool, Manchester and Lancashire, St Helens is a modernising Council which is passionate and ambitious for the children and families we support, our communities and our workforce. As part of our transformation journey, we continue to build on our progress and put children firmly at the centre of our care. We can only do this because of our highly valued, skilled, and supported workforce.

The Finance team as part of the Council's Corporate Services Directorate supports a wide range of operational services across the Council, along with ensuring that our accounting and reporting complies with the CIPFA code of practice.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Corporate finance team on a 2 year fixed term basis for a CCAB/ CIMA qualified accountant. The role will be supporting our finance business partnering model, with specific responsibilities for Capital Accounting, reporting and supporting our Regeneration Projects and wider capital projects across the Borough.

Making a Difference

Roles That Matter

The role is crucial to support the Finance Business Partner with robust financial management, and liaising with the teams delivering the projects to ensure financial reporting is accurate and transparent. Professional financial advice is required for these complex investments, and the future ongoing operational revenue models are realistic and achievable. The projects cover a wide range of differing requirements, including internal and external delivery, working with Development Partners, meeting the requirements of funding mixes including a range of grant funders, and Freeport/ Investment Zone programmes. The role provides support to the Project and Programme Leads/ Budget Managers, along with external contacts, with adaptable communication styles to ensure that informed decisions can be made to achieve Council strategic objectives, affordability and value for money.

The role will encompass complex technical accounting requirements, financial accounting and Statutory Reporting. The Council has successfully received Central Government funding for Local Regeneration Fund, and two Pride in Place programmes, along with significant Highways and Transport investment via the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority.

Employees can regularly work away from Council workspaces (including home or other locations), alongside required office-based working. The balance between remote and office-based working is determined at service level based on operational need, however, there has been a minimum specification that staff will work at least 2 days from an office-based location.

We reserve the right to close the advert early, with sufficient applications. Apply early to avoid disappointment.
