Job Description

Senior Financial Accountant - Insurance

Your new company
An established and growing insurance business operating within the Lloyd’s market, recognised for its collaborative culture and strong technical expertise. The organisation places a high value on employee development, ownership, and continuous improvement, with a clear focus on delivering high-quality underwriting and financial reporting standards.

Your new role
This is an excellent opportunity for a newly qualified accountant to join a high-performing finance team in a broad and impactful role. You will take ownership of key financial reporting processes, support regulatory deliverables, and play an important role in ongoing finance transformation initiatives. Key responsibilities include:
  • Review of general ledger activity and oversight of internal and external financial reporting
  • Involvement in regulatory reporting, including Solvency UK processes
  • Supporting quarterly technical provisions calculations and validations
  • Liaising with external auditors and key internal stakeholders
  • Assisting in the production of management accounts and financial statements
  • Contributing to finance transformation and process improvement initiatives
  • Supporting junior team members and collaborating across the wider finance function
What you'll need to succeed
You will be an ACA-qualified accountant (or equivalent) trained within a top-tier accountancy practice, with experience auditing insurance clients with 0-2 years PQE. Individuals with exposure to the Lloyd’s market will be at an advantage, though this is not essential. You will demonstrate strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to build effective stakeholder relationships. A proactive mindset and interest in improving processes will be key to success.

What you'll get in return
You’ll receive a competitive salary of £65,000-£75,000 plus bonus and a comprehensive benefits package. This role offers strong career development opportunities, exposure to senior leadership from an early stage, and the chance to play a meaningful role in shaping finance processes within a dynamic and forward-thinking environment.
