About Us:
At the Royal College of Nursing we're an optimistic organisation. And we've got good reason to be. We all share the same voice when it comes to changing the shape of the health policies of the future. And as the largest trade union of nursing staff and students in the UK - with around 450,000 members - all we can see are the infinite possibilities for a brighter future. Join us as Financial Accountant and you will too. We are accredited with Investors in People Gold Standard.
Please note, should we receive a high volume of applications for this role, your application may not be shortlisted if you do not submit a Supporting Statement. A Supporting Statement is an important part of our application process, so we would encourage you to submit one as part of your application.
The Financial Accountant Role:
As a Financial Accountant, you'll use your positive attitude, your knowledge of UK GAAP and your ability to deliver a review of financial processes. It's a job full of possibilities as you could get involved in anything from taxation to maintenance of the fixed asset register and liaising with the rest of RCN Group.
We'll look to you for the review of balance sheet reconciliations, for accuracy of revenue recognition, and VAT accounting. It's a great way to build your understanding of the business and grow your potential.
As our Financial Accountant, you'll take part in several projects aimed at assessing and improving financial processes whilst building key relationships with the rest of RCN Group (the Royal College of Nursing and the charity, the RCN Foundation).
What We Offer In Return:
We expect you to look after RCNi and its relationship with the RCN Group. And we expect you to be rewarded for it. As well as a whole range of learning and development opportunities we can also offer you an impressive range of benefits. We have a highly competitive pay structure, as well as flexible working, and annual leave of up to 32 days.
Balancing work and life commitments is important to us as an organisation. We are a diverse organisation and understand everyone has different needs. All employees can ask for flexible working and when personal circumstances change we will work with you to find a smarter working solution that suits everyone. In fact, many of our employees enjoy home working, flexible working or compressed hours, enabling them to deliver results with minimum impact to their professional and personal commitments. We also offer generous Maternity, Paternity and Adoption leave packages.
Candidate Requirements:
To join us as Financial Accountant, you'll need reconciliation and analytical skills and, ideally, a background in a relevant area such as VAT and financial reporting. Whatever your background, you'll be efficient, accurate and show a real customer focus in all you do.
To succeed at the Royal College of Nursing all you need to do is think bigger, better and brighter. And with an attitude like that, anything's possible.
