You know those handovers that sound simple until you open the file and realise half the processes live inside someoneโ€™s head? Thatโ€™s what youโ€™ll be stepping into.

And if that didnโ€™t make you flinch, youโ€™re probably exactly who we want to talk to.

This is a Senior Accounts Assistant role with a growing business thatโ€™s been expanding fast. Growth brings opportunityโ€ฆ and a few messy integrations. Youโ€™ll be the person who makes sense of it all. The calm in the transition. The one who can turn half-documented processes into something clear, accurate and scalable.

Youโ€™ll have the freedom to get stuck in, spot whatโ€™s broken, and fix it properly. Not with sticky tape, but with systems that actually work.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Taking over transactional finance
  • Processing purchase and sales invoices, VAT returns, supplier payments, and bank reconciliations
  • Running the payroll
  • Posting month-end journals and pulling together management information
  • Keeping an eye on short-term cashflow and helping with year-end prep
  • Supporting integration of the new business into group finance processes
  • Helping automate and streamline how things are done
  • Working alongside the finance director and finance manager

What you’ll bring:

  • Solid experience as a Senior Accounts Assistant
  • Strong Excel skills
  • A hands-on approach, happy to roll your sleeves up, but sharp enough to think strategically
  • The ability to hit the ground running, stay organised, and communicate well
  • Bonus points if youโ€™ve handled system migrations or digital transformation projects

What’s on offer:

  • Salary up to ยฃ35k dpe
  • 3โ€“6 month contract with potential to go permanent
  • Hybrid working from Leeds
  • Friendly, down-to-earth team with plenty of autonomy
  • A business thatโ€™s modernising fast and values people who make things happen

If youโ€™re the kind of person who enjoys turning chaos into clarity, joining the dots, and leaving things better than you found them, this oneโ€™s for you.
