Finance Assistant
Location: Birmingham
Contract: Interim, initial minimum 6 months
Day Rate: £180 - £200 per day

About the role
A well established and growing business based in Birmingham is centralising its finance function as part of a wider restructure, bringing month end work in from regional offices into one central team. As part of this, they are looking for a Finance Assistant to join on an interim basis and support the transition, taking on a broad range of transactional and month end tasks as the team scales up.

This is a great opportunity for a finance assistant with solid all round transactional experience to get involved early in a centralisation project, working closely with the finance manager and gaining exposure to a business handling multiple entities and regional teams.

Key responsibilities

• Posting month end journals
• Preparing prepayments and accruals
• Bank reconciliations and cash book postings
• Supporting the month end close process as regional businesses transition in
• General all round transactional finance support

What we are looking for

• Solid, all round transactional finance experience, ideally including month end exposure
• Experience is the priority; part qualified level would be ideal but is not essential
• Background from a medium sized organisation with broad, all round exposure, rather than a very small business or a large corporate where duties were limited to one narrow area
• SAGE or similar systems experience (such as NetSuite) is desirable but not essential
• Experience within a professional services environment would be an advantage

Why apply
You will be joining a business at an exciting point in its growth, with the chance to shape ways of working as the finance function centralises. There is scope for the role to be extended and, for the right person, potential for it to evolve further as the team develops.
