Description

Financial Accountant - Accounts Receivables | E-commerce | 16 Month Maternity Cover | West London | Hybrid Working | Up to £50,000 + Travel & Food allowance + lots of other Benefits
*You need to be able to start Mid September for Hanover
Step into a senior role within a luxury brand that blends heritage with innovation.

We are a globally admired luxury retail brand with a long-standing commitment to quality, creativity, and craft. With over 300 employees across our UK headquarters and stores in London, Dublin, and Manchester, we continue to evolve while nurturing a collaborative, people-first culture.

We're now seeking a senior-level Accounts Receivable Accountant professional with a strong eCommerce background to join our growing finance team. This is not just a transactional role, it's a high-impact opportunity to own and enhance our AR processes for one of the most dynamic areas of the business.

Why This Financial Accountant Role Stands Out

  • Strategic impact - you'll lead AR for our eCommerce and Standalone Stores, owning the function and driving improvements.

  • Technical challenge - the eCommerce area is fast-paced, complex, and highly visible; your experience and insight will be key to streamlining processes and identifying smart solutions.

  • Team culture - join a business that fosters learning, creativity, and kindness, where finance is trusted, valued, and growing.

Financial Accountant Key Responsibilities

  • End-to-end ownership of Accounts Receivable for eCommerce and Standalone Stores.

  • Review, challenge, and improve AR processes-bring ideas, implement change, and solve inefficiencies.

  • Support reconciliation of concession stores and identify improvements.

  • Oversee daily sales and bank reconciliations, investigate and resolve variances.

  • Monitor customer balances, credit notes, deposits, and store settlement differences.

  • Deliver accurate month-end and year-end closing activity including balance sheet reconciliations and audit support.

  • Manage the AR shared inbox and provide support cover across the team as needed.

  • Work closely with the Senior Financial Accounting Manager on strategic projects and continuous improvement initiatives.

What We're Looking For

  • Senior-level AR experience - at least 5 years' experience, ideally in luxury or high-volume retail.
  • Strong eCommerce understanding - you'll need a working knowledge of eComm payment flows, settlements, and associated reconciliations.
  • Process-driven problem solver - able to spot inefficiencies, suggest solutions, and drive change with confidence.
  • Excel savvy - advanced skills for handling large data sets and reconciliations.
  • Part-qualified (ACCA/CIMA or similar) and comfortable with accounting principles.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • A collaborative team player with a high attention to detail and a proactive mindset.
  • Experience with SAP and/or Cegid is a bonus.

Please Note:

Candidates must have the full right to work in the UK; visa sponsorship is not available for this position.
