This is such an exciting opportunity for someone looking to develop their skills and grow within a business over time. Sitting directly alongside the Finance Director, you will gain exposure across all areas of finance, with the chance to gradually take on more responsibility over time.
We're looking for someone commercially minded, comfortable working independently, and interested in that step by step progression.
The Opportunity
You'll be involved in the day-to-day running of the finance function, starting with invoicing, credit control, then moving onto purchase ledger, month end, reporting and payroll.
Over time, there is the opportunity to grow the role into something broader and more senior, making this a great fit for someone who is keen to develop their career in a hands-on environment.
What You'll Be Doing
Supporting day-to-day finance operations across sales ledger, purchase ledger, and bank reconciliations
Assisting with credit control and managing queries across the business
Posting journals including prepayments, accruals
Supporting month-end close and financial reporting
Assisting with payroll processes and liaising with external providers
Supporting budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow reporting
Assisting with audit preparation and compliance processes
Liaising with other teams where needed, building those relationships
What We're Looking For
We're open to a range of experience levels, the key is finding the right person.
You might be:
Early in your finance career with a strong foundation in a similar role and a desire to learn
Or more experienced, looking for a broader role with more ownership
What's important:
Experience within a finance role covering similar duties
Good attention to detail and strong organisational skills
Comfortable using Excel and accounting systems
A proactive, hands-on approach with a willingness to get involved
Strong communication skills and confidence working with non-finance teams
Confident working independently
Additional Information
Full-time, office-based role (some flexibility on working hours)
Study support can be considered depending on the individual
A great opportunity to join a stable business with long-term progression potential
Why Apply?
This role would suit someone who wants to move beyond purely transactional finance and gain exposure across the wider function and really grow within a business.
If you're looking for a position where you can learn and genuinely add value to a business, this could be a great next step.
