Senior Financial Reporting Manager - 12 - 14 month FTC

We're looking for a confident and capableSenior Financial Reporting Manager to join our high-performing Financial Reporting team at Virgin Media O2 on a12-14 month fixed-term contract (dependent on start date). This is a phenomenal opportunity to tackle a pivotal senior role in a visible, fast-paced, and collaborative environment.

Reporting directly to the Head of Reporting, you'll play a key part in ensuring the accuracy, compliance, and clarity of our financial reporting under bothIFRS and US GAAP. You'll have a hand in everything from reviewing and preparing journal entries to getting stuck into the detail of our consolidated statements and statutory filings, including our Annual Reports and Company accounts.

But this isn't just a technical role. Our Financial Reporting team sits at the heart of Finance & Strategy, working closely with teams like Investor Relations, Treasury, Legal, and FP&A - as well as with our shareholders at Liberty Global and Telefónica. That means you'll also have the chance to support on ad hoc, high-impact projects such as regulatory changes, M&A activity, or debt refinancing - often at pace and with real business impact.

We're looking for someone who brings a"can-do" approach, isn't fazed by change, and thrives in an environment where no two days are the same!

In return, you'll gain valuable exposure at a senior level and the chance to influence and improve how we do things. You'll also help mentor and develop junior team members, supporting both their growth and the positive culture we've built together.

If you're someone who loves detail, enjoys solving sophisticated problems, and wants to make a real impact, all while helping shape the future of financial reporting at VMO2, we'd love to hear from you.

This role requires 2- 3 days a week in the Reading office.
