Full job description

Who are we?

Howden is a global insurance group with employee ownership at its heart. Together, we have pushed the boundaries of insurance. We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mindset, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 24,000 employees spanning over 56 countries.

People join Howden for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It’s what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down headhunters for years. Whatever your priorities – work / life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering – you’ll find like-minded people driving change at Howden.

What we’re looking for

The Assistant Management Accountant provides essential accounting support within the Finance team, helping to deliver accurate financial reporting, maintain strong financial controls and meet monthly, quarterly and annual reporting deadlines. Working alongside more senior finance colleagues, the role supports management accounting activities, reconciliations, ledger management and financial analysis while developing professional accounting knowledge through study towards a recognised qualification

This is a full-time, permanent role based in Milton Keynes, following a hybrid working pattern of 3 days in the office.

What you’ll be doing

Produce monthly management accounting and reporting information in line with agreed timetables.
Prepare balance sheet reconciliations and investigate variances, issues and outstanding items.
Post journals into the general ledger and reporting systems, including intercompany and recurring transactions.
Calculate and maintain accruals and prepayments to support accurate financial reporting.
Prepare and issue sales ledger invoices in a timely and accurate manner.
Support the preparation of VAT returns and provide information required for tax reporting activities.
Deliver ad hoc management reporting and financial analysis to support business decision-making.
Maintain accurate financial records and ensure company systems are updated appropriately.
Develop and update process documentation to ensure procedures remain accurate and current.
Build effective relationships across Finance and wider business teams to support high-quality service delivery.

What qualifications we’re looking for

Experience gained within an accounting, finance assistant, accounts assistant or trainee accounting environment.
Exposure to management accounts preparation, journals, reconciliations and month-end processes.
Experience using Microsoft Excel, including formulas, analysis and data presentation.
Ability to maintain accurate financial records and work to strict reporting deadlines.
Experience supporting internal stakeholders and responding to finance-related queries.
Understanding of financial controls, compliance requirements and professional standards.
Experience following documented processes and contributing to process improvements.

Qualifications

Part qualified Studying towards ACCA, CIMA, ACA or another recognised professional accounting qualification, or a recent graduate with a degree in Accounting or Finance.
Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
Good numerical, analytical and problem-solving ability.
Proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel

What do we offer in return?

A career that you define. At Howden, we value diversity – there is no one Howden type. Instead, we’re looking for individuals who share the same values as us:

Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new
We support each other in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges
We are determined to make a positive difference at work and beyond

Reasonable adjustments

We're committed to providing reasonable accommodations at Howden to ensure that our positions align well with your needs. Besides the usual adjustments such as software, IT, and office setups, we can also accommodate other changes such as flexible hours* or hybrid working*.

If you're excited by this role but have some doubts about whether it’s the right fit for you, send us your application – if your profile fits the role’s criteria, we will be in touch to assist in helping to get you set up with any reasonable adjustments you may require.

Not all positions can accommodate changes to working hours or locations. Reach out to your Recruitment Partner if you want to know more.
