working at kensite

We’re hiring a part-time Management Accountant.

This role will suit someone very good at what they do, who simply doesn’t want a full-time job - whether they are working around existing commitments or fractional and supporting other businesses. Kensite is a growing hire business, and our month end is detailed. We have thousands of assets out on hire, multiple entities within group, and need contract-level reporting, transport activity, customer profitability and have plenty of moving parts behind the headline numbers.We need someone who enjoys getting that detail right.

Someone diligent, organised and commercially minded. Someone who will notice when something doesn’t make sense, follow it through, and make sure the numbers properly reflect what is happening in the business.

The role will include management accounts preparation, contract and customer profitability reporting, balance sheet control, cash and credit control oversight and chasing, and helping us improve the quality of the financial information we use to run the group, reporting to the Finance Manager.

We want someone who takes pride in accuracy, understands the importance of good financial control, and can explain clearly what the numbers are telling us.The role is part-time and the hours can be genuinely flexible.

That might suit someone returning to work, someone balancing work around a family, or simply an experienced accountant who has decided that five days a week isn’t for them.If you’re excellent, dependable and want a role where your work will actually be used, I’d really like to hear from you.
