Pensions Accountant

Pensions Accountant
Derbyshire  £45,000 – £50,000  Full-Time  Hybrid

I'm recruiting for a leading manufacturing business in Derbyshire — a well-established and growing company that plays a major role in the region’s economy.

They’re now looking for a Pensions Accountant to join the company to help support the finance function. This is a key, specialist role where you’ll be responsible for the full accounting process relating to the company’s pension schemes, working closely with both the HR and wider finance teams.

This is a fantastic opportunity to take full ownership of the pensions accounting for the organisation — offering autonomy, responsibility, and a supportive environment as part of a high-performing team.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Preparing statutory accounts for the pension scheme and company disclosures
Managing audit processes for both scheme and company pension reporting
Posting and managing all accounting entries related to pensions, including payments and cashbooks
Forecasting and supporting actuaries and finance with up-to-date reporting
Liaising closely with third-party administrators, payroll, and internal finance teams
Helping maintain and improve controls, reconciliations and monthly reporting

About You:

ACCA / ACA / CIMA qualified
Strong technical accounting and statutory reporting background
Comfortable working across functions and taking full ownership
Prior audit experience and ability to liaise confidently with auditors
Pensions experience is ideal but not essential — training can be given
Experience working in industry is essential (not open to straight-from-practice candidates)
If you're looking for a role with stability, purpose and challenge in a large, fast-moving business, this could be an excellent move for you.
