Senior Finance Assistant - Temporary to Permanent
We are excited to announce a fantastic opportunity for a Senior Finance Assistant to join a well-established business that is passionate about internal growth. This role has become available due to a recent restructure-driven by the company's commitment to developing talent and creating progression opportunities. We're looking for someone with experience across Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and banking who is eager to step into this role and grow alongside the business.
This is not your typical finance position. You'll be involved in a broad variety of tasks, making every day different and engaging. One day you'll be supporting the AP team, liaising with suppliers and resolving queries; the next, you'll be diving into banking, handling cash allocations, postings, and working across multiple bank accounts. With exposure to treasury and AR processes, this role is intricate, fast-paced, and full of opportunities to learn and progress.
What You'll Be Doing
- Processing invoices and ensuring accuracy across the AP cycle
- Building strong relationships with suppliers and resolving queries efficiently
- Reconciling statements and managing weekly payment runs
- Handling daily bank reconciliations across multiple accounts
- Allocating cash and posting transactions using systemised processes
- Managing direct debits and interacting with banking portals
- Supporting Accounts Receivable through bank postings and liaising with the credit control team
- Collaborating with another finance assistant to keep everything running seamlessly
- Identifying opportunities to improve processes and take on additional responsibilities over time
- Carrying out other ad-hoc finance tasks to support the wider team
What We're Looking For
- You love the idea of growing with a business and making a real impact
- You thrive on variety and enjoy the buzz of juggling different tasks
- You're naturally organised and get a kick out of keeping things running smoothly
- You're confident using Microsoft Excel and comfortable working with data
- You bring enthusiasm for spotting process improvements and helping the team make them happen
- You're ready to start immediately and excited about the chance to secure a permanent role
What's in It for You
- A competitive salary that truly reflects your experience, with regular pay reviews to support continuous growth
- Study support and clear progression opportunities, so you can keep building your career
- Hybrid working with two days from home and an easy-to-reach city centre office
- A business that values development and celebrates success, creating a culture where you can thrive
- A collaborative, supportive finance team that makes work enjoyable every day
