This is the job

Join The AA’s in-house underwriting business as a Assistant Technical Accountant and play a key role in strengthening financial control, reporting, and analysis. This is a hands-on position offering broad exposure across finance and accounting, with the opportunity to build your knowledge of the insurance and underwriting sector.

Working within a small, experienced, and commercially minded team, you'll have the chance to make a real impact while contributing to the continued growth and development of the underwriting division. As the business evolves, so will the role, providing plenty of opportunity to broaden your skills and take on new challenges.

We're looking for someone who enjoys collaborating with others, can communicate confidently with stakeholders, and thrives in a dynamic environment where initiative and teamwork are valued.

What will I be doing?

Managing monthly technical accounting journals and maintaining accounting files with accurate rates and data.
Reconciling premium income with the Pricing team to ensure financial accuracy and consistency.
Preparing quota share statements, resolving queries, and ensuring timely payments to partners.
Completing Insurance Premium Tax (IPT) returns and making payments to HMRC within required deadlines.
Performing balance sheet reconciliations and maintaining strong financial controls.
Collaborating with Finance Systems colleagues to enhance ledger integrity, controls, and reporting processes.
Supporting internal and external audits by providing accurate information and documentation.
Partnering with Group Finance teams to deliver accurate financial reporting and meet key stakeholder requirements.
Assisting with forecasting, planning, management information, and underwriting performance analysis across premiums, claims, and trading volumes.
Contributing to regulatory reporting, presentations, ad-hoc projects, and the development of junior team members.

What do I need?

Qualified or part-qualified accountant (ACCA, CIMA or equivalent), with a strong foundation in financial accounting.
Experience within insurance accounting would be advantageous but is not essential.
Advanced Excel skills, with the ability to analyse and interpret financial data effectively.
Strong relationship-building skills and the confidence to work collaboratively with a range of stakeholders.
Commercially minded, with a proactive approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement.
Calm and resilient, with the ability to prioritise and perform effectively under pressure.
Eagerness to learn, develop new skills, and broaden knowledge within a dynamic business environment.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with strong attention to detail.
Analytical mindset, with the ability to turn data into meaningful insights and recommendations.
Self-motivated, driven, and committed to delivering high-quality outcomes.
