Qualified Management Accountant

A Qualified Management Accountant is a finance professional who has completed a recognized certification—most commonly through bodies like CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) or ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants). These qualifications equip them with the skills to analyze financial data, guide strategic decisions, and improve business performance.

Here’s what sets them apart:

  • They focus on internal financial management, unlike auditors or tax accountants who deal with external reporting.

  • They help businesses plan budgets, forecast trends, and control costs.

  • They often work closely with senior leadership to shape business strategy.

For example, a CIMA-qualified accountant is trained not just in accounting, but also in risk management, business strategy, and performance analysis—making them valuable across departments

​Hartlepool (/ˈhɑːtlɪpuːl/ HART-lih-pool) is a seaside and port town in Hartlepool, England. It is governed by a unitary authority borough named after the town. The borough is part of the devolved Tees Valley area. With an estimated population of 92,600]].[1]

The old town was founded in the 7th century, around the monastery of Hartlepool Abbey, on a headland. As the village grew into a town, in the Middle Ages, its harbour served as the County Palatine of Durham's official port. The new town of West Hartlepool was created, in 1835, after a new port was built and railway links from the South Durham coal fields (to the west) and from Stockton-on-Tees (to the south) were created. A parliamentary constituency covering both the old town and West Hartlepool was created, in 1867, called The Hartlepools. The two towns were formally merged into a single borough called Hartlepool, in 1967.[2] Following the merger, the name of the constituency was changed from The Hartlepools to just Hartlepool, in 1974. The modern town centre and main railway station are both at what was West Hartlepool; the old town is now generally known as the Headland.

Industrialisation and the start of a shipbuilding industry in the later part of the 19th century meant it was a target for the Imperial German Navy at the beginning of the First World War. A bombardment of 1,150 shells on 16 December 1914 resulted in the death of 117 people in the town. A severe decline in heavy industries and shipbuilding following the Second World War caused periods of high unemployment until the 1990s when major investment projects and the redevelopment of the docks area into the Hartlepool Marina saw a rise in the town's prospects. The town also has a seaside resort called Seaton Carew.
