Assistant Accountant

Sewell Wallis are working on a brilliant opportunity for an experienced Assistant Accountant to join a sought-after and well-known business in Harrogate, North Yorkshire that can offer the opportunity to gain exposure to the full management accounts process within a large, successful business on a permanent basis.

This is a brilliant opportunity for an Assistant Accountant who thrives working in a fast-paced environment and you'll be providing high-level support to the wider team.

The business has experienced a lot of change and development over recent years, so it's a great time to join them as an Assistant Accountant whilst they have plenty of new projects on the go.

• Produce and post Journals.
• Support with posting and reconciling of Month End Sales Recharges.
• Monthly Prepayments and Accruals.

• Bank Account Reconciliations.

What skills are we looking for?

• Part-Qualified CIMA or ACCA.
• Experience gained in a similar role.
• Excellent Excel and analytical skills.
• Self-motivated and able to work efficiently independently and as a team.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• A willingness to learn.
• Ambitious with a desire to progress.

What's on offer?

• Up to 31,200 per annum, depending on experience.
