1. Join #TeamDA as a Accounts Administration Assistant
We are looking for an organised, proactive and friendly Accounts Administration Assistant to join our team in our Dalston office, with the option to move to our Penrith office in the future. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working with detail, supporting others and delivering a high level of service to both clients and colleagues.
About the Role
As an Accounts Administration Assistant, you will support the efficient day to day running of our Accounts department. You will work closely with the team across a range of administrative tasks, including billing, client onboarding, document production, record management and HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) administration. You will assist with the billing process, including sending fees to clients in a timely manner and supporting the team to ensure work is processed accurately and efficiently.
You will also help make sure client information is handled correctly. This will involve liaising with clients, previous agents, HMRC, providers and internal teams to ensure information is received, recorded and shared with the right people. The role will include producing letters, invoices, forms and documents, collating information from clients and providers, maintaining accurate records, supporting routine administration tasks and communicating with HMRC on behalf of clients when required.
You will have excellent communication skills, including the confidence to use the telephone and draft professional emails and letters. You will also need strong numerical skills, a high level of accuracy and the ability to use Word, Outlook and Excel to a high standard.
Experience in an administrative role within an accountancy firm, a Business Administration qualification, or experience with document and record filing systems would be beneficial, but they are not essential.
We are looking for someone who is friendly, professional and confident, with a strong client focused approach. You will be well organised, able to prioritise your workload and willing to support others to achieve team objectives.
Why join #TeamDA?
We are passionate about rewarding our people and offering the best opportunities for them, to grow, develop and progress both professionally and personally. Our benefits are competitive, from flexible working to enhanced annual leave (with service), ‘give a day to charity’ and your birthday off plus free financial advice and 4% employer pension contribution.
