- This role provides critical support during a busy period, as several team members step into project work across the first half of the year — coinciding with year-end and audit
- You’ll play a key part in maintaining smooth day-to-day operations, taking ownership of month-end reporting, year-end tasks, audit preparation, and a range of analysis and ad hoc work. It’s an excellent opportunity to bring your expertise into a fast-paced environment and make a tangible impact
- Lead month end reporting for designated markets
- Own balance sheet reviews and follow-up actions
- Review the work of junior team members to ensure accuracy and consistency
- Produce cashflow reporting and support forecasting as needed
- Deliver key year end tasks in line with deadlines
- Support the audit process — managing queries, preparing audit schedules, and ensuring information is accurate and complete
- Partner with the Senior Management Accountant and Financial Controller on ad hoc tasks
- Provide support across the wider Finance team, which may include time in Accounts Receivable or Commercial Finance
- Contribute to project activity where required

Salary benchmarks
Our take
Initially set up as a mail order company in 1991, Boden has since become a major UK fashion brand specialising in quality clothing designed to stand the test of time. They have 2 million active customers worldwide, and have attracted high profile buyers including Kate Middleton, Michelle Obama, and Holly Willoughby.
Previously relying on catalogue sales, they were unable to achieve the real time responsiveness vital in today’s retail industry. As a result, in the past few years Boden’s heavily invested in modernising their IT systems and created a new way to capture data on their site. Having adapted to changing consumer behaviours, now 95% of their sales happen online, enabling them to compete with the growing number of eCommerce competitors like ME + EM and Mint Velvet.
This new digital approach has not been their only success in recent years. Traditionally, many UK retailers have failed to gain a foothold in the US. However, the company’s quintessential British branding has successfully set them apart, leading to Boden’s US sales already overtaking those in the UK and the business continues to grow faster there.
Moving forwards, Boden is overcoming a 2023 dip in sales triggered by an unneeded menswear revamp that lost sight of its core customer base. It is now reverting back to its classic formula and planning on further expansion in the US, determined to double sales in the next few years.
