Unique role for a Bookkeeper / Finance Manager based near Downham Market, including office administration
Your new company
Hays Accountancy & Finance are working in partnership with an interesting client who is looking for an all-round Bookkeeper / Finance Manager to manage the day-to-day accounts and administration for their group of businesses based in West Norfolk near Downham Market.
Your new role
As the Bookkeeper / Finance & Office Manager, your core duties will involve producing accounts to trial balance across the ledgers, purchase, sales & nominal ledgers using Sage Line 50. This will involve recording all finance activity across multiple cost-centres, which allows you to create a summary of expenditure vs. actual spend for each business along with an accurate cashflow analysis of income. This will form the basis of the monthly management accounts, as well as a profit & loss report and balance sheet review for the business owner and external accounts.
You will also be responsible for reconciling various bank accounts for each business / legal entity, preparing and completing the VAT returns, as well as processing the payroll for circa 45 staff. As explained, the organisation has a number of business interests as an expanding SME-style set up, so as the sole finance contact, you will be expected to assist the administration team with ad-hoc duties, but your core responsibilities will be the day-to-day finances.
