Accounts Assistant
I’m currently working on an Accounts Assistant opportunity within a professional services business. It would suit someone with around a year or more of accounts experience who is looking to build on their existing experience and progress their career.
The role covers a broad range of accounting responsibilities, including:
- Bank and balance sheet reconciliations
- Processing journals and payments
- Supporting VAT and tax work
- Assisting with financial reporting and year-end accounts
- Supporting the audit process
- Processing client account payments
- Regular financial reporting
- Providing support to Accounts Payable when needed
- Helping with accounting system projects and implementations
- General financial analysis and ad hoc accounting work
They’re looking for someone who is organised, accurate and proactive, with good Excel and general IT skills. Experience within a law firm or professional services environment would be useful, but the main requirement is a solid grounding in accounts.
The role would also suit someone who is keen to continue developing their accounting knowledge and work towards professional qualifications.
