Description:
Bookkeeper | Ealing, West London | £30,000 – £38,000 | Permanent, Full-Time
A hands-on bookkeeper who likes to own the day-to-day numbers and isn't afraid to pick up the phone to a client — this one's for you.
We're working with an ambitious, growing business in West London that's looking for a capable Bookkeeper to take charge of its day-to-day finances. It's a varied, in-house role with real ownership: keeping the books accurate and up to date, running the transactional finance, and being a friendly, professional point of contact when clients get in touch.
You'll work closely with the senior finance lead, with genuine scope to get involved in more as the business grows. If you're confident on Sage, enjoy a role where no two days are quite the same, and communicate well with people, you'll fit in nicely.
What you'll be doing- Owning the day-to-day bookkeeping and keeping the company's records accurate and up to date- Processing sales and purchase ledgers, posting and allocating transactions- Handling bank and supplier reconciliations- Preparing and submitting VAT returns- Supporting month-end and helping with management accounts (a nice-to-have, not essential)- Being a helpful, professional point of contact for clients and resolving their queries- Pitching in on ad hoc finance tasks as the business grows
What you'll bring- Solid bookkeeping experience, ideally in-house or across a range of businesses- Hands-on Sage experience (comfortable picking up other packages too)- Good communication skills — confident and professional dealing with clients- Strong Excel and a methodical, accurate approach- Some management accounts exposure would help, but isn't essential — attitude and reliability matter most- Well-organised, proactive and happy managing your own workload- AAT qualified, studying or qualified by experience all considered
What's on offer£30,000 – £38,000 depending on experience, plus a company pension and a good benefits scheme — in a varied, hands-on role with real ownership and the chance to grow with an ambitious business at an exciting stage
