Job description

The role

This is a fantastic opportunity to join our Finance team and gain experience across a range of financial disciplines. Working alongside supportive and knowledgeable colleagues, you'll have the chance to develop a broad understanding of how our finance function operates. Rather than focusing on one specialist area, you'll work across Treasury, Accounts Payable, Finance Operations, Billing and Credit Control, giving you valuable exposure to a variety of processes, systems and stakeholders.

No two days are quite the same and you'll be involved in a wide range of activities, allowing you to gain insight into how different teams work together and build a strong foundation for a future career in finance. We're a large firm with well-established systems and processes, so we'll provide all the training and support you need to develop your skills. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to broaden their experience or take the first step in their finance career within a collaborative and friendly team.

What are we looking for?

We're looking for someone who enjoys variety, has a positive approach and is keen to learn. You might already have some finance experience and be looking to expand your knowledge, or perhaps you've gained transferable skills in an office environment and are interested in developing a career in finance. Accuracy and attention to detail are important as you'll be working with financial information on a daily basis. You'll also need to be comfortable managing different priorities and building relationships with colleagues across the firm. A naturally inquisitive mindset, a willingness to ask questions and a proactive approach to problem-solving will help you succeed in this role.

To be successful in this role, you'll need as a minimum:

• Strong academics with good grades in English and Maths.
• Some previous experience of working within an office environment or finance department.
• Experience of dealing with queries and problem solving.
• Strong IT skills including excel.
