The RoleWe are looking for an experienced Accounts Assistant to join a small, close-knit Finance & HR team within a successful business based in Burgess Hill. This is an office-based role offering a great working environment within a stable team and the opportunity to grow your skill set over time. You'll report to the Finance, Payroll & HR Manager and work alongside experienced team members to support all core finance administration processes.
