  • Strong attention to detail, good organisational skills and competence in accounting software and Excel.
  • Good communication skills and ability to work well within a team.
  • A genuine interest in finance and management accounting where you will already possess experience at a similar level

We are looking for the right person, not just the right CV. If you are eager to learn, develop, and grow within a supportive finance team, we encourage you to apply.

What’s on Offer
  • On-site parking
  • 25 holidays, a pension and Bupa
  • Study support and career development opportunities
