This business has multiplied their headcount by 10 in the last 3 years as well as projecting turnover at 2x prior year. They operate multiple legal entities across the UK and Europe.Your new roleThis role has been newly created due to business growth, and you will join an existing finance team of four people. In this progressive Accounts Assistant job, you will take ownership of varied responsibilities including:
- Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable processing - low volume, approx. 250 supplier invoices per month
- Maintenance of the cash flow forecast

- Assisting the Project Accountant with the preparation of weekly project analysis reports
What you'll need to succeedThis Accounts Assistant role will suit an ambitious individual who is keen to forge a long-term career in Accounts and progress within a company. You will ideally have started or be keen to start studies towards a professional accounting qualification. Prior exposure in a similar Accounts Assistant role is desirable, but not essential. Bi/multilingual fluency in English and French and/or Spanish would also be a huge advantage (but again, it is not essential).
