Job description

Finance Assistant | Winchester | Hybrid | £30k

Are you an organised, detail-oriented professional with a flair for numbers and admin? We’re recruiting for a Finance Assistant to join a high-quality, design-led business in the property and construction sector.

This is a varied and hands-on role where you’ll support both the finance and office operations teams—roughly 80% finance-focused and 20% administrative and office support (though this may shift depending on business needs). It's a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a collaborative environment and wants to develop a well-rounded skill set.

Key Responsibilities:

Finance Support (approx. 80%)

• Process supplier invoices, match delivery notes, and allocate purchase orders
• Reconcile supplier statements and process payment runs
• Handle subcontractor payments including CIS, VAT, and retentions
• Manage employee expenses and company credit card transactions
• Assist with bank reconciliations and other ad-hoc finance tasks

Office Management & Admin (approx. 20%)

• Answer calls, manage post, and maintain office supplies
• Support with document drafting, formatting, and filing (Teams/SharePoint)
• Help organise meetings, take minutes, and maintain training records
• Assist with business vehicle admin (e.g. MOTs, insurance)
• Provide general admin support across the business

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong admin and organisational skills with excellent attention to detail
• Previous experience in finance or office administration
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, especially Excel and Outlook
• Comfortable working independently and as part of a small team
• Accounting knowledge or experience with financial processes (invoicing, reconciliations, etc.)
• Knowledge of CIS is a bonus, but not essential

What’s in It for You:

• Supportive and collaborative working environment
• Opportunities for growth and skill development
• Benefits package including pension, life cover, income protection
• Discretionary bonus scheme

If you’re looking for a role where you can make a real impact and grow within a close-knit, professional team, I would love to hear from you.
