The business are keen to find someone who wants to build a long-term career, and they'll invest in your development from day one.

You'll receive full study support, alongside gaining practical experience within the finance team. As you become more confident and develop your knowledge, there will be opportunities to take on additional responsibility and broaden your exposure across the business. It's a role where you can learn from experienced finance professionals, gain a real understanding of how finance supports the wider business and continue progressing your professional studies at the same time.

The ideal candidate will have:

• A degree in Accounting, Finance, Business or a related subject
• Good Excel skills
• Excellent attention to detail
• A well‑organised and proactive approach
• Good communication skills
• The ability to work effectively as part of a small team
