This brand-new Company Accountant role has been brought about by the change in ownership of a long standing owner managed business with a turnover of £7 million. The company has been bought by a group , which is building a global presence and which owns another  company in the UK based near Manchester and which is of a similar size. The new owners now want to bring in a qualified accountant with experience of working in SME’s to bring about the following changes:
