The manufacturing industry is booming, and due to the businesses steady growth, my client is looking for an Assistant Accountant to join the team. You will be underpinning the Finance Manager, helping her with the day-to-day accounts, as well as, preparing for month end.

This is a great opportunity if you are looking for more exposure, alongside managing the transactional finance there will be plenty of opportunity to get stuck in with more senior responsibilities including:

  • Assisting with the preparation of the annual budget.

  • Assisting with the preparation of monthly Financial Statements and reviewing.
