Finance Assistant

Prestwich

£25,000 – £29,000

Fed up of being told you need to study, work long hours and pile the pressure on yourself if you want to “have it all” in your career?

Well, that’s not the case with this company! They need an individual who is amazing at transactional accounting, loves doing it and isn’t striving to the be the next Management Accountant.

They don’t believe that “qualified = better” – they can see past an AAT and want someone who is just really good at their job!

Want to leave work at 5pm knowing you’ve done an excellent job but don’t want sleepless nights and the stress that comes with revising and climbing the ladder?

This is a client who’s motto is “freedom and flexibility” which means offering a candidate the chance to set their own career goals and aspirations. They don’t want you to feel restricted in the workplace or chained to your desk – as long as the work gets done, they’re happy.

They want “human” interactions – they want someone who will actually engage with customers and suppliers, pick up the phone and build a rapport, not just fire off an email.

This role is perfectly suited to someone brilliant at purchase and sales ledger, someone who can balance the bank accurately, close the ledgers for year end and then the FD will step in and take over things from there – alleviating any stress from yourself!

If this sounds right up your street, please submit your CV to olivia@platinumrecruits.co.uk to be considered.
