You’ll be part of a friendly, established group who provide high-quality support across the firm, with the chance to influence processes, suggest improvements and help shape the future of the finance function.

* Providing cover for other team members when needed
What we’re looking for:
* ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified (or qualified by experience)
* Strong background in financial accounting and reporting
* Confident with Excel and accounting systems (SAP desirable but not essential)
* Proactive, solutions-focused mindset — keen to spot and implement improvements
* Ability to prioritise and meet deadlines across multiple tasks
* Strong communicator who works well with colleagues at all levels
What’s on offer:
* Salary up to £48,000 DOE
