The posting

ETC, a global leader in entertainment and architectural lighting, rigging, and control solutions, is seeking an experienced Accountant to join our London Finance team. In this role, you will play a key part in the preparation of accurate monthly financial statements, delivery of high-quality management reporting, and compliance with statutory and government reporting requirements.

This position is ideal for a detail-oriented and highly organized accounting professional who thrives in a dynamic environment. You'll work independently while collaborating closely with our in-office team in London and a broader global finance organization headquartered in the United States.

The successful candidate will possess a strong foundation in accounting principles and have completed or be nearing completion of professional accountancy qualifications.

This is not a role where reports are simply generated and reviewed at a surface level. Success requires the ability to critically evaluate financial data, identify unusual trends or discrepancies, and investigate issues across multiple business functions.

Because many accounting processes intersect with purchasing, sales, inventory, and other SAP modules, you'll need the confidence and persistence to follow transactions through the system, ask thoughtful questions, and uncover root causes.

• Support the Controller with tasks including

o Monitoring credit & collection applications

o Cash management

o Financial audit tasks

• Perform other similar or related duties as requested or assigned

o Complete special projects and requests in a timely and positive fashion.

Minimum Requirements

• Bachelor’s Degree or comparable business experience in increasingly responsible positions in the related discipline

• Additional 7 + years of job-related experience

• Completed Accountancy exams to Finalist or Qualified

• Familiarity with SAP or equivalent

• Experience in a multi-currency environment

• Experience of Integrated Standard Costing

• Experience of accounting for foreign branches and subsidiaries

• Experience of UK and EU VAT requirements

• Demonstrated ability to work independently and perform multiple tasks without general supervision.

• Experienced user of Microsoft Office Word and Excel

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
