Are you a Finance Assistant or Assistant Accountant looking for a broad role with genuine responsibility and the opportunity to progress?

You'll become an important part of a friendly finance team, taking responsibility across purchase ledger, sales ledger, reconciliations, VAT, bookkeeping and month-end, with the opportunity to develop towards Management Accounts.
The business is committed to developing its people and will provide study support for further professional qualifications (if required).

About You
We're open to candidates ranging from a Finance Assistant through to an Assistant Accountant looking for their next step.
You'll ideally have:
* Solid experience within a finance/accounts environment
