- Balance sheet reconciliations 
- Supporting production of monthly management accounts 
- Assisting with audit preparation 
 
About You 
 
- Previous experience in an all-round finance role 
- Strong transactional grounding (AP/AR essential) 
- Comfortable supporting month-end processes 
- Highly organised with strong attention to detail 
- Proactive and able to work independently 
- AAT qualified or studying (ACCA/CIMA) desirable but not essential 
 
The Offer 
 
12-month fixed-term contract (maternity cover) 
5 days per week office-based 
Stable, supportive team environment 
Opportunity to gain broad exposure across finance 
 
This role would suit someone who enjoys variety, takes ownership of their work, and wants to play a key role in keeping the finance function running smoothly.
