Assistant Accountant

Tired of month-end being the most exciting part of your job?

This role is for a part-qualified accountant who wants more than just reconciliations and reports. Yes, you’ll do the numbers — but you’ll also help shape the strategy.

I’m hiring for a manufacturing business that actually wants their finance people involved in commercial decisions. You’ll work closely with senior management and have real input on how things run — and how they could run better.

You’ll be:

  • Owning month-end and balance sheet recs
  • Managing cash, controls, and improving systems
  • Leading and developing the accounts team
  • Driving projects, cutting waste, and improving efficiency
  • Translating finance into plain English for non-finance people

You’ll need to be:

  • Part-qualified (ACCA/CIMA or similar)
  • Commercially switched on
  • Confident supporting people and pushing for change
  • Comfortable rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck in
  • Bonus points for: Navision, Phocas, and manufacturing experience.

This isn’t just a finance job — it’s a genuine chance to grow, lead, and make a difference. Apply now or drop Claudia a message if you’re curious. No polished CV needed — let’s just have a chat.
