About MotorEasy

MotorEasy is one of the UK’s leading automotive technology and insurance businesses, helping hundreds of thousands of drivers manage the cost of vehicle ownership.

This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate with around 1–2 years’ experience in a finance or accounting role who wants to build a long-term career in finance. You will gain broad, hands-on experience while being supported by experienced finance professionals.

We are looking for a bright and ambitious team-player, who is quick to learn and keen to grow your finance knowledge.

The Role

As an Assistant Accountant, you will support the day-to-day running of the finance function while gaining exposure to management accounts, financial reporting, underwriting reporting and operational finance.

Help improve finance processes through automation and continuous improvement.
Provide support across the finance function during periods of annual leave.
Carry out ad hoc duties as required by the Financial Controller and CFO.

Business Management
Another relevant or numerate discipline

Clear communication skills with colleagues, suppliers and other stakeholders.
A proactive approach, willingness to learn and confidence to ask questions.
Ability to work independently while contributing positively to the wider team.
A genuine interest in developing a long-term career in finance and accounting.

Desirable Skills and Experience

Experience of accounts payable, accounts receivable or supplier reconciliations.
Exposure to month-end processes, journals, accruals and prepayments.
Experience using Sage 50 or another accounting system.
Studying towards, or intending to study, ACCA, CIMA or ACA.
Experience within insurance or financial services, although this is not essential.
An interest in process improvement, finance automation and using technology to work more efficiently.
