Junior Finance Assistant
- Paignton
- Full Time

Are you looking to build a long-term career in finance with a growing, forward-thinking business?

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Junior Finance Assistant to join a supportive team in Paignton. The company is looking for someone enthusiastic, proactive and keen to learn—not necessarily someone who already knows everything.

Working closely with experienced colleagues, you’ll receive plenty of support while gaining exposure to a broad range of finance and administrative responsibilities. The role can be offered on either a full-time or part-time basis.

• Supporting the processing of purchase orders and supplier invoices
• Assisting with customer invoicing and payment allocation
• Helping maintain purchase and sales ledger records
• Reconciling supplier statements and investigating queries
• Supporting credit control and chasing outstanding payments
• Maintaining accurate financial and compliance documentation
• Assisting with month-end administration and reporting
• Supporting wider office administration and improvement projects

This role would suit someone with some initial finance or accounts experience who is ready to take the next step. You may currently be working as a Junior Accounts Assistant, Finance Administrator, Accounts Administrator or Purchase Ledger Assistant, or studying towards an AAT qualification.

More importantly, you’ll be motivated, organised and eager to develop. You’ll have good attention to detail, a positive approach and the confidence to ask questions and take on greater responsibility as your experience grows. Previous experience using Excel or accounting software such as Xero would be beneficial, but full training and support can be provided to the right person.
