We are working alongside a small but perfectly formed accountancy practice based in Blackburn who are looking for an experienced Bookkeeper to join their team. You will be a key member of the team and support them in continuing to provide a high level of customer service to their client base.

The business has organically grown over the last 10 years and has established a loyal customer base, alongside a great working family culture. They work with a variety of client from sole traders, LTD companies and right through to the larger clients nearer the audit threshold.

Duties as the Bookkeeper will include:

Responsible for the reporting of the monthly profit and loss accounts supported by a loose commentary of variances.
Work closely with cost centre leaders to understand controls and variances around internal expenditure and budgetary controls.
Understand the stock reporting cycle and stock level variances/movements.
Main point for contact for stock related queries working closely with sales and operational staff where necessary.
Report all utilities/overhead accruals monthly.
Responsible for production/manufacturing volumes and monitor weekly variances.
Monitor the customer rebate system and calculations closely.
Assist with the audit process and answer any queries where needed.

The successful candidate will have gained a few years background with Bookkeeping and possibly in an accountancy practice, however if you have been working independently and wish to now be part of a team that would be good too! Solid bookkeeping skills and knowledge of cloud accounting are a must, and AAT is on the wish list but not essential.

If you are currently looking for a new role within Accountancy or Finance within Lancashire, please do get in touch with Rachel Mitson at Rebus Recruitment. We are actively looking at a variety of roles for candidates across Lancashire, and Greater Manchester and are happy to discuss options with you.
