The ideal Accounts Assistant will have :

Previous experience within an accounts, bookkeeping or finance administration position, alongside a practical understanding of accounts receivable and accounts payable.
You will be highly organised, detail-focused and comfortable managing competing priorities within a busy Finance environment.
Strong communication skills will also be important, as the Accounts Assistant will regularly liaise with customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders.
Experience in credit control, bank reconciliations or supplier payment runs would be advantageous, as would familiarity with finance systems, invoice-scanning software or SharePoint.
An AAT qualification, current AAT studies or a genuine interest in developing your finance career would also be welcomed.
