JOB DESCRIPTION

Group Finance Assistant / Assistant Accountant

About the Company

UKC Group (www.ukc.group) is an established, global leader specialising in obsolescence supply chain solutions, reverse engineering, and custom manufacturing for the commercial, aerospace, and defence sectors. Operating from our custom-built 40-acre head office facility, we manage a unique multi-entity portfolio.

This role directly handles the day-to-day accounting and payroll operations for four of our key group companies based at head office.Two of our other group companies are managed independently by an Accounts Manager in Preston, and we are actively finalising the acquisition of a new business entity.

We are currently transitioning our financial software from Sage 50 to Sage Intacct. This project is fully led by an external implementation consultant, meaning you will receive structured training and a stress-free environment to upskill on this modern platform. You will work independently on-site, collaborating directly with our fractional Finance Director (FD).

Payroll & Wages: Run the end-to-end processing of monthly staff payroll and wages for the group, ensuring accurate statutory deductions, NI, and pension allocations.
Compliance & Reporting: Prepare quarterly VAT returns ready for submission within HMRC deadlines. Post standard month-end adjustments (accruals/prepayments) and compile basic P&L and Balance Sheet figures for the fractional FD.
Preparation of Management Accounts/Budgets & Forecasts: Prepare group consolidated accounts on a monthly basis.

Key Skills & Experience

Strong background in an all-round accounting, bookkeeping, or assistant accountant role.
Proficient, hands-on operational knowledge of Accounts packages.
Direct experience running end-to-end UK staff payroll and wages (essential).
Confident working across multi-company and multi-currency transactions.
