• Work closely with the wider finance team to support system transitions and data transfers
• Help maintain controls and documentation to support audit readiness and future process improvements

What We’re Looking For:

• Comfortable working with finance systems and Excel (basic to intermediate level)
• Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to problem-solving
• Good organisational skills and the ability to prioritise in a fast-moving environment
• A positive, team-oriented attitude and willingness to learn
• Immediately available and commutable to Guildford.
