Job Description:
Finance & Operations Assistant
Manchester (Office Based – 5 Days in office)
£25,000


Looking for a role where you can build real finance experience and play a key part in how a business runs day-to-day? This could be exactly what you’re after.
Since 2001, we’ve built a strong presence across the UK and the US by creating a genuinely collaborative environment where people are supported, trusted, and encouraged to achieve their full potential. We believe success is shared, and everyone in the business plays a part in driving it forward.
Now, we’re looking for a Finance & Operations Assistant to join our team and become a key part of that journey.


What’s in it for you?
This isn’t a role where you’re hidden away processing paperwork. You’ll be at the centre of operations, gaining exposure across finance, compliance, and business support while working closely with a team that wants to see you succeed.
You’ll build valuable, practical finance skills through hands-on experience with invoicing, reconciliations, and accounting systems. You’ll develop strong commercial awareness by seeing how placements convert into revenue and how finance underpins business performance. You’ll work closely with experienced colleagues across finance and operations, gaining insight and support in a collaborative setting where knowledge is shared openly.
You’ll be part of a well-established, stable business with international reach, but one that still maintains a close-knit, team-driven culture where your contribution is recognised and valued.


What you’ll be doing
You’ll play a key role across contractor care, finance administration, and wider business support.
You’ll prepare and issue contracts for UK and European clients and service providers, manage onboarding processes, and ensure all compliance documentation is complete, accurate, and validated. You’ll liaise with finance on credit checks, payment terms, and account setup, while maintaining accurate records and tracking contract extensions through the CRM system.
On the finance side, you’ll support invoicing processes, ensure placements are ready for billing, and assist with purchase ledger, reconciliations, and expense management. You’ll work with finance systems including Xero to keep records accurate and up to date, and support processes such as invoice discounting and supplier payments.
You’ll also contribute to the smooth running of the business by supporting travel bookings, GDPR inbox management, and general office coordination, as well as assisting with starter and leaver administration.


What we’re looking for
You may already have some experience in finance, administration, or operations, or you may be looking to build on a strong foundation with a willingness to learn. You’ll have a high level of attention to detail, strong organisational skills, and confidence working with systems and data. A proactive mindset and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment will help you succeed in this role.


Why Oscar?
We’re proud of the culture we’ve built. It’s a place where people work together, support each other, and are encouraged to grow. You won’t just be joining a company; you’ll be joining a team that values collaboration, development, and shared success. We invest in our people, celebrate achievements, and create an environment where everyone has the opportunity to progress and make a meaningful impact.
