• Support the Finance Team Leader with a range of finance tasks as the business grows.
• Provide support with purchase ledger and credit control tasks when required.
• Assist with general finance administration tasks as needed.
• Contribute to maintaining an efficient, accurate and compliant finance function.
• Support the wider business and undertake other tasks as required by the needs of the business.

Person Specification:

• Exceptional attention to detail with a strong focus on accuracy.
• Methodical and well organised, comfortable working in a high-volume environment.
• Good time management skills with the ability to juggle competing priorities.
• Confident communicator, both written and verbal.
