Assistant Accountant

The Role



Assistant  Accountant
Full-time | Primarily office based

We’re looking for an ambitious Assistant Accountant to join a growing and supportive finance team.

This is a great opportunity for someone with a strong Purchase Ledger or Accounts Assistant background who is ready to broaden their experience and gain greater exposure to management accounts and month-end activities.

The role will offer a good balance of transactional finance and wider accounting responsibilities, making it ideal for someone who wants to continue developing their career.

The role

You’ll be involved in:

  • High-volume purchase invoice processing
  • Managing invoice queries and exceptions
  • Cash allocation
  • Bank, credit card and statement reconciliations
  • Stock reviews
  • Supporting accounting across multiple business entities
  • Assisting with month-end activities
  • Potential involvement in future finance systems projects

The position is approximately 40% transactional finance and 60% broader accounting support, so there is plenty of opportunity to develop beyond a traditional Purchase Ledger role.

 

The Person


About you

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

  • Previous Purchase Ledger or Accounts Assistant experience
  • Good reconciliations experience
  • Experience working with high-volume transactions
  • Strong attention to detail
  • A positive attitude and strong work ethic
  • The ability to manage deadlines and priorities
  • A genuine desire to learn and progress
  • A collaborative, team-focused approach

Someone currently studying AAT would be particularly well suited, although this isn't essential.
