At GWI we’re always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we’re looking for a
Junior Management Accountant to play a key role in our Finance team in London. If that’s you, and making a difference gets you out
of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.
SOUNDS GREAT, WHAT WILL I BE DOING? 🤔
As our Junior Management Accountant you'll get hands-on with the day-to-day management accounting for several of our global
entities — working closely with our Senior Management Accountants to keep our books accurate, our accounts reconciled, and our
month-end running like clockwork. This is a genuine accounting role, so you'll get real exposure to the full finance cycle, from
general ledger maintenance through to audit and tax support.
A few things you’ll be responsible for:
👉 Preparing monthly schedules and reconciliations and posting journal entries for bank (including FX revaluations), prepayments,
loans, fixed assets and intercompany
👉 Setting up bank payments for intercompany transfers and payroll across all entities, and supporting the AP team with supplier
payment runs where needed
👉 Keeping our fortnightly cashflow forecast accurate and up to date
👉 Maintaining the general ledger in SAP Business One — creating new GL codes, cost centres/departments, and closing periods each
month
👉 Leading on PSA and P11D preparation, liaising with the Tax and People teams as well as external accountants
👉 Supporting on the annual group audit with schedules, reconciliations and documentation of process notes
It’s also fun; shaking things up is what working for GWI is all about. You’ll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous
change, and working in a high-tempo environment.
WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING WITH ME? 🧳
You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the
important thing is that you’re willing to learn. Here’s what the team will be looking for in you:
👉 Part-qualified ACCA, CIMA or ICAEW (or equivalent)
👉 Solid grounding in double-entry accounting and month-end processes, ideally from a practice background or a similar accounting
role in a smaller company
👉 Comfortable working independently across multiple entities and currencies, managing competing deadlines with confidence
👉 Experience working with ERP systems — SAP Business One experience a strong plus
👉 High proficiency in Google Suite and Microsoft packages; must have strong Excel skills
👉 Transparent, confident communicator who's comfortable liaising with stakeholders outside of Finance
👉Nice to have: Experience using AI effectively, ethically and safely — using it as a thinking partner without losing sight of
professional judgement
Newly qualified? You're welcome to apply too — just know this role sits at part-qualified level, so the salary is set
accordingly.
Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect
(to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, and they’re a big part of what we’re looking for in you.
WHY JOIN US
👉 Own real work from day one. You'll run your own entities and reconciliations — not just watch someone else do it.
👉 Learn from people who've done it. Our Senior Management Accountants will help you grow, from talking through tricky
reconciliations to supporting your ACCA/CIMA/ICAEW study.
👉 Get exposure most junior roles won't give you. Global entities, multiple currencies, audit, tax, payroll — you'll build skills
that set you apart, fast.
WHAT WE OFFER 🧘
At GWI, you’ll find meaningful work, visible impact, and a culture that empowers you to do your best. Our package includes:
- Time to recharge – 25 days’ annual leave, plus office closures over the holidays.
- Health & wellbeing – Health cash plan, enhanced family benefits, carer days, and mental health support.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION 🫶
Diversity is fundamental to who we are—as a data company and as a workplace. Our data reflects global realities, and so must our
teams. We strive to build a workforce as diverse and inclusive as the insights we deliver.
As a Disability Confident employer, we welcome applications from disabled candidates and are committed to making adjustments
throughout the hiring process—whether that's extra time, materials in advance or a different format, breaks, an adjusted interview
format, assistive tools, or flexible scheduling. We're happy to discuss whatever would work best for you.
We actively encourage applications from underrepresented and marginalised communities.
At GWI, you'll find a place to contribute meaningfully, grow professionally, and belong fully.
