Us

Sladen Consulting is bursting with energetic, talented, and passionate people. We are proudly B Corp Certified and bursting with people who want to make a difference in others and the world in which we live. Would you like to join our crew?

At a truly exciting time for Sladen we have an opportunity to welcome a new Management Accountant to our adventurous Sladen family. Do our five guiding beliefs (the Sladen Way) resonate with you? Are you looking for a role with a company that takes every opportunity to make a positive impact in this ever-changing world? Then this could be the role for you!

Check out our website (www.sladenconsulting.com) and if you get that warm feeling when reading about us, then we would love to hear from you. If you don’t have a background in consultancy – it doesn’t matter, if you don’t have a background in leadership development – it doesn’t matter, if you don’t have a background in coaching – it doesn’t matter. What does matter is that you bring the whole of you to the workplace.

Success in the role means that you need to bring the ability to: quickly and accurately produce management information, embrace an ever-changing environment, be excited by the possibilities that AI brings to the finance function and definitely a ‘roll your sleeves up’ attitude. But the most important aspect is a great sense of humour! This is a non-negotiable!
