Reconcile balance sheet accounts and prepare balance sheet reconciliations.
Reconcile sales against relevant systems to ensure accuracy.
Review and approve the weekly payment run and manage cash flow reporting and forecasting.
Produce weekly reports.
Review overheads with Senior Operations management periodically.
Support the business in forecasting and budgeting processes as required.
Assist the Financial Manager with financial analysis and the annual audit process as needed.
Review 4-weekly payroll reports and prepare detailed journals for posting/accruals.
Liaise with store and operations teams as required.
Key Skills:
Experience preparing management accounts, posting month-end journals and reconciling the balance sheet.
Experience in a Hospitality, Leisure, or FMCG setting, ideally multi-site.
Ability to resolve problems using own initiative and an eye for financial opportunities.
Strong organisational skills and able to work independently, manage and prioritise a busy and varied personal workload, often working to challenging deadlines.
A team player with a flexible, "can-do" attitude, taking initiative to solve problems.
Experience with SAGE200.
