Are you an experienced Accountant looking to contribute to the implementation of Aviva's innovative projects and developments? This exciting opportunity for an Accounting Policy Advisor to join our team based in York has arisen due to continued growth.

The primary purpose of this role is to provide in-house advisory support to the Aviva Group, supporting the overall objectives of Aviva's technical advisory and policy centre of excellence. This involves delivering best-in-class advisory support to the Group on a wide range of transactions, projects, and queries.

As an Accounting Policy Advisor, you will partner with the Business to make financial and business decisions, advising on the application of group accounting policy and key judgements in determining how complex transactions are reported externally in a fair, balanced, and understandable way.

You will leverage financial accounting and reporting skills in developing policy and methodologies to support current and future sustainability reporting requirements, including implementation of ISSB standards, UK government greening finance initiatives, climate transition planning, and TCFD disclosures.

Key responsibilities include:

* Forming judgements (with support from senior team members) on complex accounting matters of high commercial importance to the Group and taking them through appropriate governance.

* Influencing the development of Sustainability, climate, and other non-financial reporting policies.

* Supporting the TAP team objectives and keeping the Group safe through high-quality, insightful, fair, and balanced financial reporting.

* Providing accounting advisory support on a range of transactions, projects, and queries (including sustainability topics) typical for a large composite insurance undertaking.

* Engagement and issue resolution with external audit on technical accounting matters.

* Preparation of technical accounting papers to the Group and Market Financial Reporting Committee supporting quarterly reporting cycles, ad hoc transactions (including M&A and capital projects) and technical accounting issues.

* Continuous management of effective planning to facilitate key deliverables to various timescales, including short turnarounds for ad hoc advisory support and longer-term planning of deliverables across reporting cycles and deliveries across the full year.

* Contributing to updates to Group IFRS accounting policy and the Group Reporting Manuals.

Requirements include an Accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA or equivalent).

Bonus opportunity of 10% of annual salary (actual amount depends on your performance and Aviva's).

Benefits include a generous pension scheme, 29 days holiday plus bank holidays, and the option to buy or sell up to 5 days. You will also receive up to 40% discount on Aviva products, and other retailer discounts, as well as up to £1,200 of free Aviva shares per year through our Matching Share Plan and share in the success of Aviva with our Save As You Earn scheme.

Aviva offers brilliantly supportive policies, including parental and carer's leave, and flexible benefits to suit you, including sustainability options such as cycle to work. You will also have the opportunity to make a difference through our Aviva Communities and use your 3 paid volunteering days to help others.

We also consider all forms of flexible working, including part-time and job shares.
