ECOVIS Wingrave Yeats • Full-time • London, London, United Kingdom • 2w ago

We want to hear from bright, ambitious graduates who are keen to join our growing Financial Management team. This is a great opportunity for motivated, articulate and career-minded individuals to progress in a career within accountancy.

A career at Ecovis is full of new experiences, stimulating challenges, and an environment where you can develop yourself and achieve your long-term goals. We offer you the opportunities to work on projects that will inspire you, build your own networks, be mentored and coached by experts in your field, and to thrive in a fully supportive and flexible environment.

A glimpse into the financial management associate role

Our Financial Management Solutions (FMS) team act as the outsourced finance function for a wide range of businesses including young and fast-growing owner-managed start-ups through to large, well-established multinationals. Our clients operate in a variety of industries including creative (TV/film), financial markets, green & sustainability, and technology to name a few. Successful applicants will gain experience of how different businesses operate and over time have a real opportunity to assist and advise our clients in both their day to day and long-term operations.

You will work with a portfolio of clients large and small to prepare their annual financial statements, monthly/quarterly management reports, and assist with VAT, payroll, and regulatory compliance. As you progress you will be given more and more responsibility, ultimately being handed clients to manage, whilst taking on more future-focussed assignments, from forecasting to advisory work.

Beyond our client work, many of the team choose to get involved in the wider firm by joining one of a number of groups, from charity and social committees to the diversity team, or by training as a mental health first-aider. Based in the heart of Soho we are a dynamic, ambitious firm looking for individuals who match this mindset.
