The Client


With over 300 branches and 4,000+ employees across Europe, they are one of the continent's fastest-growing automotive groups. In Guernsey, our client runs a unique multi-brand operation and is now on the lookout for a driven, detail-loving Senior Dealership Accountant to keep our finances on track.


About the Role


You'll be the financial heartbeat of the dealership-keeping everything ticking with accurate reports, strategic forecasts, and cash flow wizardry. You'll support our leadership team by providing clear, insightful financial info that helps us steer the business in the right direction.


The Position:

  • Take care of key assets: think stock, debtors, and funding lines.

  • Forecast weekly, plan annually-to help hit targets across all sectors.

  • Finalise annual accounts and support auditors with everything they need.

  • Keep tabs on the balance sheet, accruals, provisions and ensure we stick to budget.

  • Stay on top of PAYE, TAX, and VAT

  • Manage payroll, bonuses, and commissions so that everyone gets paid fairly and accurately.


What You Bring to the Table:



  • Worked as an Accountant within a Car Dealership before.

  • Experience with any of the Main Dealership Accounting Packages: Kerridge/Keyloop/Autoline/Pinnacle and solid Microsoft Office skills

  • Familiar with Power BI or similar? Even better!

  • Know your way around Sales, Service & Parts KPIs

  • Understand the motor trade and its quirks.

  • Organised, sharp-eyed, and independent


Why Join Our Client?


You'll be part of a close-knit team in a stunning island location, working for a company that's going places-literally. Whether you're passionate about cars or just love balancing the books, this role offers variety, challenge, and the chance to make a real impact.


And a Leading Salary, good Company Benefits and Opportunity for growth in the future.
