Description:
Assistant Accountant (Transactional Finance)
Huddersfield / Bradford | £26,000-£32,000 | Study support available
The role that actually takes you somewhere.
Not every "Assistant Accountant" ad is a stepping stone in disguise for a role that goes nowhere. This one genuinely is a stepping stone, and a good one. Our client, an expanding business with real growth plans, wants someone who'll pick up transactional finance duties and use them as a launchpad into management accounts, not get stuck doing purchase ledger forever.
If you're AAT qualified (or working towards it) and want a role that'll actually teach you something rather than just keep you busy, this is worth a proper look.
You'll be:
Assisting with monthly management accounts and month-end close
Preparing accruals, prepayments, and journals
Handling balance sheet reconciliations
Getting genuine exposure to wider transactional and operational finance work, this isn't siloedYou'll need:
AAT qualified or part-qualified (study support provided)
Some transactional finance experience, purchase/sales ledger, credit control, or similar
Curiosity, the people who do best here are the ones who ask "why" and not just "how"Why this one's worth your time: this is a role built for progression, not a holding pen, and the businesses investing in training right now are the ones that'll still need people in five years, automation or not.
Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age
