Finance Assistant
Full-time
Office-based
40 hours per week
This Finance Assistant role sits within a well-established organisation known for its welcoming, supportive culture and strong team ethos. The business places real value on its people, with a finance team that works closely together and takes pride in doing things properly.
Based in a semi-rural setting, the role offers a calm working environment with free onsite parking and a strong sense of community, while still being easily accessible from surrounding areas.
The position offers a broad, end-to-end remit across day-to-day finance, providing exposure to multiple areas rather than a narrow or repetitive workload. Alongside core transactional responsibilities, there is genuine scope to develop your skills over time, including involvement in month-end processes and elements of management accounts, should this be of interest.
It’s a great opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, has a transactional finance background and is looking to take on more month duties or for someone who already has that type of exposure to basic management accounts tasks.
What’s on offer:
*Free and easy onsite parking
*Varied role with the chance to gain exposure to supporting with the management accounts
*Peaceful working location with a strong sense of community
*Supportive and approachable finance team
*Opportunities to develop skills and broaden finance experience within management accounts over time
*A stable role within a well-established organisation
*Social and wellbeing-focused working culture with company events throughout the year
*Employee discounts for the services the company provides
*Free onsite staff gym
*Enhanced paternity/ maternity pay
The role will involve:
*Supporting with reconciliations, journals, prepayments and routine financial reporting
*Processing payments through banking systems, including BACS and ad-hoc payments
*Assisting with intercompany transactions
*Monitoring department budgets and preparing information for budget holders
*Providing support within the purchase ledger function
*Maintaining accurate records across invoicing, payments and refunds
*Responding to finance-related queries from internal and external stakeholders
*Assisting with data gathering and preparation for management accounts
*Supporting shared finance inboxes and handling queries by phone and email
*General finance administration and support to the wider team
What we’re looking for:
*Previous experience in a finance or accounts-based role, ideally within an all rounded transactional accounts assistant type role
*A good working knowledge of accounting principles
*Confident using Excel for day-to-day tasks
*Comfortable working with financial systems (any system experience welcomed)
*High attention to detail and accuracy
*A calm, organised approach with the ability to meet deadlines
*Friendly and professional communication style
*A team player who takes pride in their work
*AAT qualification or studying towards one would be beneficial, but not essential


This role would suit someone looking for a varied finance position within a positive working environment, where contribution is valued and development is encouraged.
