- Producing management information for Directors
- General bookkeeping and office finance administration
- This position offers variety and autonomy, ideal for someone who enjoys being the go-to person for all things finance.

- A background in a stand-alone finance role
- Strong experience managing the full ledger
- Knowledge of VAT, ideally with some exposure to CIS
- A hands-on, practical approach with excellent attention to detail
- A desire to be a valued part of a small, collaborative team
