They're looking for an ambitious early careers accountant to join their team

What's in it for you

A route you can see. You can talk to people who started at your level and moved up. You won't have to take our word for it.

Real exposure early. You'll work with experienced people across a multi-skilled team, and you'll see how the numbers drive the wider business.

A team you'll look forward to. It's close-knit, friendly and supportive, with plenty of banter, regular socials and events, and a high-energy pace.

Somewhere that looks after you. The company champions mental health and inclusion, and puts real weight on culture and environment.

Room to move. There's genuine scope to progress, move around the business and grow your earning potential.

A package that backs it up: 10% bonus, private healthcare, life assurance, a generous pension, holiday buy, sell and accrual scheme, cycle to work, wellbeing programme, employee discounts and free on-site parking.

You'll be at the centre of month-end, with a clear route to management accounting. This is a role for someone who wants to get on - they care less about how many years you've done than how quickly you want to grow. A recent graduate with a year or twos experience and real drive will be taken as seriously as someone further along.

What you'll do

Own the intercompany, balance sheet and P&L reconciliations

Look after the fixed asset register, prepayments, accruals and journals

Who we're looking for

You're proactive, positive and ambitious about where your career goes. You're nearing the end of your AAT, or if you've gone down the graduate route, you are a couple of years into your career and are on the ACCA or CIMA journey. You have good Excel skills, an eye for detail and some experience of reconciliations. We'd rather meet someone hungry to learn than someone who has seen it all.
