We are searching for an experienced Assistant - Management Accounting.

About the company
RSM is regarded as one of the most progressive and entrepreneurial professional services firms in the UK today. We are the UK’s 7th largest accounting firm, employing nearly 3,500 people in over 35 offices across the UK. We are members of RSM International, the 6th largest global accounting network with over 128 member and correspondent firms in 120 countries, and in excess of 38,000 people worldwide.

About the department
Outsourcing is a key service offered by RSM to its client base, both in the UK and internationally, driving key relationships on the back of long-term annuity engagements in its chosen mid-market space. At present across RSM, this includes functions such as payroll, transactional processing, bookkeeping, and company secretarial duties. RSM’s offering is considered a valuable resource by businesses within the UK who see the cost, time, and resource benefit of outsourcing these functions. It is also a beneficial tool for international organisations looking to invest into the UK and for more established multi-national corporations looking for a consistent global outsourced service. Utilising RSM’s outsourcing services removes the burden of managing a finance function and the associated regulatory requirements.
