Job Description

Financial Accountant for a Film business in London hiring a recently qualified ACA straight from practice

Your new company
A reputable film distribution business based in London is hiring a newly qualified Accountant to join the team as a Financial Accountant. The organisation is an SME but benefits from the backing of a major global media player, giving you the best of both worlds, the ability to work closely with the numbers, influence decisions, and gain broad exposure in a lean team, while being supported by the scale, stability, and resources of an industry leader.

Your new role
As a newly qualified Financial Accountant, you will be responsible for the below and broader ad-hoc projects.
  • Monthly and Quarterly preparation of P&L, and BS for review with FP&A Manager.
  • Management of month-end processes, including journals and balance sheet recs.

  • Liaise with an outsourced Corporation Tax team to provide necessary corporation tax information.
  • Review the quarterly VAT return.

What you'll need to succeed
  • Practice qualified (ACA / ACCA)
  • FRS 102
  • Interest in media and the creative space

What you'll get in return
This is a super exciting opportunity for someone looking to move out of practice and into a reputable, dynamic film business. The role offers genuine exposure to the commercial side of film and media, giving you the chance to see how finance supports decision‑making in a fast‑paced, creative industry. You’ll work closely with a highly experienced Finance Director, an FP&A Manager, and a junior finance team of five who oversee credit control, AP, AR, and bookkeeping, providing plenty of support while also giving you room to grow and take ownership.
