Francesca’s Recruitment Ltd is recruiting on behalf of a small, friendly manufacturing business in Chesterfield. This hands‑on Company Accountant role is ideal for someone with up to five years’ experience who enjoys variety, takes pride in accuracy, and thrives in a close‑knit team where everyone supports each other.
This is a contract role with the potential to become permanent, offering stability, autonomy, and a genuinely welcoming working environment.
The Opportunity
You’ll take ownership of day‑to‑day financial operations across multiple small businesses within the group. This is a practical, processing‑focused role with plenty of variety — from reconciliations and VAT to import/export routines and supporting a systems transition.
Because this is a small business, you’ll also help with general office duties, including answering the phone and greeting visitors. It’s a role for someone who’s happy to get stuck in and be part of a supportive team.
Key Responsibilities
* Daily bank reconciliations and transaction posting
* Credit card statement reconciliation
* Purchase and sales ledger management
* Payroll spreadsheet preparation
* VAT returns and import VAT record maintenance
* Monthly journals and balance sheet reconciliations
* Fixed asset register maintenance
* Year‑end support and stock count postings
* SAP Business One transition support
* General office duties and admin cover
* Answering the phone and welcoming visitors
About You
* AAT qualified or at final study level
* Ideally from a practice background
* Up to five years’ accounting experience
* Strong Excel skills and excellent attention to detail
* Confident with processing tasks and import/export routines
* Organised, self‑motivated, and professional
* Happy working in a small team and supporting wider office tasks
* Available to start immediately
This role suits someone who enjoys a steady, well‑rounded workload and values being part of a friendly, collaborative environment. While progression is limited due to company size, the variety and autonomy make this a rewarding long‑term opportunity.
What’s On Offer
* Early finish every Friday
* Supportive, close‑knit team culture
* Exposure to multiple businesses and varied accounting tasks
* Involvement in system transitions and process improvements
* A stable, hands‑on role with real responsibility
* Contract position with potential to become permanent
If you’re ready to join a small, friendly team and bring your accounting skills into a role that values accuracy, teamwork, and variety, apply today or contact Francesca’s Recruitment Ltd for more information
