Accounts Assistant + AAT Study

Trafford Park

£30,000 - £32,000

Currently studying AAT and looking for an Accounts Assistant role that gives you the opportunity to put the theory into practice?

If you already have 12+ months' finance experience, this is a great opportunity to join an established finance team with a structured training plan designed to complement your studies and build your practical accounting experience.

Rather than being expected to know everything from day one, you'll have a phased introduction to the role, working closely with the Management Accountant and Financial Controller.

This is a business that wants to find someone they can keep. Someone who can become a key part of the finance team, grow in confidence, develop their technical ability and build a future with them over the next 3-5 years.

And rather than leaving you to work it all out for yourself, they've planned your introduction properly.

Your first six months will look something like this:

Months 1-3: Shadowing the Management Accountant and Financial Controller, learning how the finance function operates at the business, understanding the processes and getting to grips with the wider role.

Months 3-6: Mastering the ledger accounting as well as involvement in your first couple of month-end cycles.

By the end of month six: Pulling all your knowledge together! Confidently carrying out the day to day responsibilities of an Accounts Assistant.

And beyond your probation period? The future is bright - exposure to management accounting & finance business partnering.

This job really could be the making of your career!
