Costing and Pricing Accountant

Job Ref: 0097387 Job Type: Permanent Employer Type: Direct Employer Date Added: 02/01/2008
Employer: BAE Systems – Military Air Solutions
Location: Warton
Salary: £30694 - £33794
Benefits:

At BAE Systems – Military Air Solutions, we’re responsible for producing some of the most advanced military aircraft the world has ever seen. Like the F-35 Lightening II – the first (and currently only) stealthy supersonic, multi-role fighter plane. And the Herti family of Unmanned Air Vehicles, which can soar thousands of feet in the air and take thermal images of the terrain below – all without a pilot on board.
As a group, we have a hand in every stage of an aircraft’s development. This starts with an initial brief and carries on through a variety of design, build and test stages, before we deliver the final product. That level of involvement means we can boast a wide range of capabilities, including systems integration, manufacturing, and repair and upgrade. We’ve even produced a number of military training programmes. Our customer base spans more than 30 countries worldwide. And we currently employ around 10,500 people.
Role is responsible for the production of actual and forecast charging rates to support the pricing of contracts for the Military Air Solutions (MAS) business. The role includes the production of actual rates for MoD audit, the management of all MoD compliance activities and development and implementation of changes to the current pricing methodology as two business units have recently merged to form MAS. You will be part of a small central finance team that supports all MAS pricing, being a key interface with all the programmes finance and commercial teams within the business on pricing rates and MoD compliance activities.
This is a highly visible role with exciting future career prospects. The ideal candidate will have proven communication skills with non finance managers and commercial/business experience. The candidate is expected to be able to implement improvements to the existing processes and always be looking to improve performance. Some previous experience with MoD non-competitive accounting rules is desirable but not essential. It is expected the candidate will be a passed finalist (e.g. CIMA, ACCA, ICAEW) but other relevant experience will be considered.
