The Opportunity
We're working with a highly respected, international business with a collaborative and fast-moving finance team. This is a fantastic opportunity for an Accounts Assistant who enjoys being part of a team, likes variety in their role, and wants long-term development rather than just a transactional job.
You'll join a friendly, supportive finance team of four, where everyone works closely together and supports each other. The business operates at pace, so this role suits someone organised, proactive and happy to roll their sleeves up.
This is an ideal step for someone with around 2+ years' accounts experience who is studying AAT (or about to start) and wants to build a solid career in finance.
What You'll Be Doing
This is a varied Accounts Assistant role covering both purchase ledger and credit control, giving you exposure across key finance processes:
Processing supplier invoices and reconciling statements
Managing multi-currency supplier payments (BACS and same-day payments)
Setting up new supplier accounts and maintaining records
Handling company credit card expenses and receipts
Recharging intercompany costs and raising sales invoices
Dealing with supplier queries by email and phone
On the credit control side:
Posting and allocating customer payments
Sending invoices and statements
Chasing payments from both proforma and account customers
Raising credit notes
Handling customer queries professionally
About You
We're looking for someone who is:
Studying AAT (or planning to start)
Has at least 2 years' experience in an accounts/finance role
Confident with purchase ledger and bank/payment processes
Comfortable communicating with suppliers and customers
Organised, accurate and detail-focused
Outgoing, positive and enjoys being part of a team
Happy working in a fast-paced environment where priorities can shift
Why This Role Stands Out
Join a collaborative, supportive finance team
Exposure across both sides of the ledger
A business that values teamwork and communication
Long-term career opportunities as the business continues to grow
A role where you'll be trusted, involved and part of the team - not just processing in the background
