My client is a long-establised, successful engineering business offering sales, maintenance and parts. The team is stable, capable and really friendly. They work very hard but have a great attitude and pride in the business so it almost feels like family. The business recruits rarely, but due to an upcoming period of maternity leave, the support and skills of an experienced finance professional are required to continue to ensure the finance team can continue to operate effectively in supporting the business.

Reporting to the Finance Manager, you will be working in a small, friendly team where everyone 'mucks in'. This is a full time role for an initial period of 10 months. The exact duties will in apart rely on your skills & experience but will include:-

  • Weekly and monthly sales ledger
  • Credit control and customer relationship management
  • Purchase ledger
  • Bank reconciliations
  • VAT
  • Cashbook and bookkeeping
  • Monthly and ad hoc reporting and analysis

As a member of a small team, experience in all the above areas is essential - and the sales ledger reconciliation and associated credit control is particularly key (although only about 20% of the role). You will be organised and have great prioritisation skills and be an effective communicator across all levels both internally, as well as with customers and suppliers.

In return you will have an enjoyable role with a lovely team and, as the business continues to grow, who knows what the future may bring.....

Due to the office location, the role cannot be accessed by public transport.

My client is looking to interview ASAP. So don't delay, apply now!!!
