Job Description & How to Apply Below
If career progression is your priority for 2026, act now rather than waiting until the New Year. This is your chance to secure your next role early, stay ahead of the crowd, and begin the year with real momentum.

Are you currently supporting month-end but not getting the recognition or the job title you deserve?

If you're already posting journals, reconciling accounts, and getting involved in reporting, but still carrying a Finance Assistant title, this is your opportunity to step up.

This isn't a leap into the unknown; it's a natural next move into a role that reflects what you're already doing. You'll take on more responsibility, gain broader exposure, and finally hold a title that matches your level.

You'll be joining a stable and growing business operating across two sectors, where finance is central to decision-making and commercial direction. This is an office-based role, reporting into a supportive manager who will invest in your development while giving you the autonomy to take ownership of your work.

What you'll be doing

Supporting the production of monthly management accounts
Completing balance sheet and bank reconciliations
Supporting budget preparation and forecasting cycles
Assisting with VAT returns and audit preparation
Working with colleagues across the business to improve financial reporting
Identifying process improvements and helping implement change

This role is about more than processing numbers. It's about understanding what sits behind them, questioning them where needed, and using them to support stronger business decisions.

What's in it for you?

A genuine opportunity to move your finance career forward
Study support and a manager who actively supports development
25 days' holiday (plus bank holidays)
A varied role with exposure across different areas of the business
A stable, growing company with strong values and a supportive culture

What you'll need

A minimum of 4 years' finance experience, in a Finance or Accounts Assistant role
AAT qualified (or equivalent). If you've built your experience on the job and can demonstrate the right skills, we'd still like to hear from you
Proven ability to work with confidence, accuracy, and initiative
Proficiency in Excel and experience using accounting systems such as Sage or Xero
A detail-focused, proactive approach and the ability to work effectively with non-finance colleagues

This is more than just a job move. It's your step into something bigger.

If you're ready for more responsibility, more variety, and real progression, apply now.
