Aspire Jobs are working exclusively with our client, a well-established organisation within the care home sector.
They are now looking to recruit a Trainee Accounts Assistant to join their small and friendly team based in Ringwood.
This role would suit someone who is either at the very start of their career and keen to build a future in accounts and finance, or someone looking to retrain and move into an accounting role. You will need to be happy starting with the fundamentals (such as purchase ledger) and learning the basics properly in order to build a long-term career.
Our client is committed to supporting the right person and will fully fund AAT qualifications, as well as providing study leave to help you succeed.
Previous accounts experience is not essential — attitude, willingness to learn and a strong work ethic are far more important.
We are looking for someone who:
• Is keen to learn and takes pride in doing a good job
• Is proactive and happy to suggest ideas if they see ways things could be improved
• Can think for themselves and show initiative
• Is willing to start with the fundamentals and work their way up within the team
• Is PC literate, with a basic understanding of emails, Word and Excel
• Has a positive, reliable and can-do attitude
This role would suit someone who is motivated, curious and keen to learn. Our client is looking for someone who genuinely wants to build a career in accounts and is prepared to put in the effort to learn the role properly from the ground up.
In return, you will receive full training, support with your AAT qualifications and the opportunity to grow and progress within a stable and supportive business.
If you are looking for your first step into an accounts career and have the right attitude and willingness to learn, we would love to hear from you.
