Your new company

Your new role

Reporting to the Managing Director and working closely with the external accountant, the Assistant Accountant will undertake ownership of transactional finance responsibilities for the organisation. Your duties will include, but will not be limited to; processing invoices & subcontractor payment runs across 4 sites, inbox & query management, expenses, bank reconciliations, reporting for external and internal stakeholders, assisting with the preparation of monthly management accounts, VAT returns and all associated duties.
