I am working with the Head Office Finance Department, of a group of manufacturing facilities UK wide, who are now looking to grow their Group Finance Department and require a good Accounts Assistant to join their existing team.

Reporting to the Group Finance Controller, the Accounts Assistant will be a good all-rounder, with knowledge of sales and purchase ledger, and credit control.

The role of the Accounts Assistant will involve, but not be limited to:

  • Updating Cashbooks & Bank Reconciliations daily.
  • Supplier payment runs.
  • Supplier account reconciliations and liaising with suppliers where needed for copies and queries.
  • Assisting with the cleansing and updating of existing purchase ledger data for ten businesses.
  • Use of banking software.
  • Daily reconciliations for our invoice discounting accounts.
  • Liasing with our sites on overdue customer debts for weekly reporting information

The ideal attributes for the Accounts Assistant:

  • We are looking for an enthusiastic, talented individual with a keen eye for detail.
  • You will have worked in a similar role, within manufacturing previously, preferably at Group level, although this is not essential.
  • You will be capable and confident, with a varied accounts background, and have the enthusiasm to work in a high volume, fast paced environment.
  • You will have good knowledge of Microsoft Excel and be willing to undertake any ad hoc tasks that may be required.
  • You will have the ability to communicate effectively with all financial and non-financial colleagues and suppliers.
  • You will have excellent communication skills and be confident on the telephone as you will be required to speak to the finance contact at each site.

In return, the Accounts Assistant can expect a competitive salary for this level of role, depending upon their experience. They will also have a flexible holiday entitlement, with no shut downs (except Christmas), and free onsite parking. Working hours are 8-4.30 Monday to Thursday (with ½ hour for lunch), and 8-1.30 on Fridays.

This is an excellent opportunity for an Accounts Assistant looking to grow and progress their career, with continued development, in a forward-thinking, growing company.
