This part of the role is supported by a part-time accounts assistant and involves maintaining timely, accurate financial reporting and operational insights.

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong bookkeeping and management accounting skills.
• High level of discretion and professionalism.
• Proactive, organised, and able to work independently.
