Supporting quarterly and year-end close activities.
Maintaining accurate financial records relating to retail transactions.
Supporting the Finance team with wider accounting activities as required.
Identifying opportunities to improve processes and systems.

You’ll ideally have:

AAT Level 3 or 4 or be working towards an equivalent accounting qualification.
Previous experience in a finance or accounts role, ideally within a retail environment.
Good knowledge of accounting principles, VAT and relevant accounting standards.
Experience with reconciliations and supporting management accounts.
Strong Microsoft Excel skills, including pivot tables and lookups.
Good written and verbal communication skills.
A proactive, organised and problem-solving approach.
The ability to work effectively as part of a team while managing your own priorities.
