Magic Breakfast

Financial Accountant

Salary: £43,500 – £50,500

Permanent, Full-time (35 hours per week)

Fully remote (UK-based)

About Magic Breakfast

Magic Breakfast is on a mission to ensure that no child is too hungry to learn. Every school day, we provide nutritious breakfasts to over 300,000 children and young people across England and Scotland, working with schools in areas of greatest disadvantage.

The latest research shows that 2.7 million children are at risk of hunger, meaning one in five arrive at school without enough to eat. Hunger affects concentration, behaviour and attainment and that’s why our work matters.

We are now entering an exciting next phase as we launch Nourishing Futures, our long-term strategy to scale our impact, strengthen partnerships and redefine breakfast spaces as places where children can thrive, not just eat.

To support this growth, we are looking for an experienced and technically strong Financial Accountant to safeguard the integrity of our financial reporting and provide assurance across our finance function.

You will lead on statutory accounting, financial controls and compliance, acting as the guardian of the general ledger, balance sheet integrity and finance systems. This role provides trusted technical expertise to senior leadership, ensuring that our financial reporting, governance and regulatory obligations are met to the highest standard.

This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified accountant with a strong technical background whether from audit, charity or complex organisations who wants to apply their expertise in a purpose-led organisation making a real difference to children’s lives.

The role is fully remote, with occasional travel within the UK as required (for example, key meetings or audits).
