Accounts Assistant

Accounts Assistant - Plymouth - Circa: £27,500

There a lot of transactional focussed accounting opportunities at this level in the southwest at present - probably more jobs than there are candidates. But there’s something notably attractive about this one. It works with a highly successful, entrepreneurially operated SME delivering high end services in the logistics sector. The business owners and management team have put the company on a trajectory for large scale expansion and with clients operating across the UK and Europe, they’re not just restricting themselves to the local area.

Trial Balance Consulting have been exclusively engaged to source a talented and ambitious Accounts Assistant, a brand new role for the company. Reporting to an experienced Finance Manager and working as part of a team of four, the successful candidate will also work closely with all members of the senior management team. Responsibilities to include:

- General end-to-end accounts administration using Sage and bespoke accounting systems

- Assist the Finance Manager with month end reporting

- Bank reconciliations (multiple accounts)

- Statutory compliance and assisting in the production of statutory reports

- Dealing with customer, supplier and subcontractor enquiries

- Other office management duties as required

We’re more focussed on relevant experience than qualification so welcome applications from those who are part/fully AAT or qualified by experience. The person-fit is almost as crucial as technical experience as the successful candidate will be working as part of a small, tenacious and busy team.
