This is a brand new role on the back of continued success and growth, and they are more than happy to take someone at the junior level and train/progress them from day one.

Their office is located in the heart of Edinburgh's bustling city centre, very commutable from the surrounding region, and given the collaborative nature of the business and this role in particular, there is a hybrid model of 3 days per week in the office (tues-Thurs), and 2 days (Mon & Fri) working from home.

There is a strong people-oriented culture within the business, and they're very supportive of their team's progression through the ranks, and will provide ongoing support for upskilling and certifications i.e. ACCA, etc.

We're happy to share with you the great insights we have received already from those we have placed into the business (inlcuding into this team specifically!), and how promising this organisation is, so take a look at the finer details below, and apply now as interviews are expected to take place soon:
