Assistant Accountant Experience
To be successful in this role you will be an experienced Assistant Accountant, and a self-starter, with a positive and proactive attitude. You will be a problem solver and be able to work independently and autonomously and must therefore have a strong foundation of experience working in finance with a breadth of skills and understanding of posting journals (debits and credits) in the accounting system, handling day-to-day accounts payable and accounts receivable including generating all invoices, credit control, balance sheet reconciliations etc.
You will be working across 2 finance teams, supporting the Senior Accountant for the parent company with clerical finance administration and accounts payable as well as assisting the Finance Manager for the subsidiary company in a hands-on transactional capacity. Your work will be split between both companies although there will be a degree of flexibility around this dependent on reporting deadlines and month end for example.
You will be assigning reporting segments and doing double entry bookkeeping on Oracle ERP and working on Xero. Training will be provided on these systems but previous experience using these would be advantageous. You will need to have advanced MS Excel skills.
This role would suit a finance accounting professional who has a solid understanding of finance and who can get up to speed quickly and who is used to working to tight financial reporting deadlines. The client will consider part-qualified candidates such as ACCA/ CIMA/ ACA or similar, with previous similar finance experience. Experience within an SME would be desirable however the ability to, and prior experience of, meeting corporate financial reporting deadlines is essential. You must have excellent written and verbal communication skills and strong attention to detail. You must be able to demonstrate longevity on your CV, having established yourself within a finance team supporting an Accountant.
