Finance Systems Accountant Jobs in London Area, United Kingdom at Investigo
Title: Finance Systems Accountant
Company: Investigo
Location: London Area, United Kingdom
A specialty insurance business is hiring a Finance Systems Accountant to join their fast-growing team in London.
This is a hands-on role at the intersection of finance and systems, ideal for someone who enjoys owning a finance platform while staying close to core accounting. You’ll act as the internal expert for the enterprise finance system, supporting its ongoing development while contributing to day-to-day finance operations and reporting.
You’ll play a key role in shaping how finance operates as the business scales – from system configuration and data structures through to process design and automation.
Key responsibilities include:
- Owning and developing the finance system, including configuration, upgrades, and enhancements
- Acting as the internal SME and system administrator (chart of accounts, dimensions, workflows, controls)
- Supporting the design of financial data structures to enable accurate reporting across multiple frameworks (including IFRS and UK GAAP)
- Working closely with technology and data teams on integrations and data governance
- Supporting core finance processes such as month-end, reconciliations, and reporting
- Identifying opportunities to streamline and automate finance processes
We’re looking for someone who:
- Is ACA / ACCA qualified (or equivalent), with experience in financial reporting and operational finance
- Has worked as a finance systems super-user, administrator, or implementation SME
- Has been involved in finance system implementation or configuration
- Is confident working with data (advanced Excel essential; SQL/Python beneficial)
- Enjoys working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
Insurance experience is helpful but not essential. Experience in a high-growth or start-up environment would be a strong advantage.
If you’re looking for a role where you can combine accounting knowledge with systems ownership and play a part in building scalable finance infrastructure, we’d like to hear from you.
