Maintain logs of aged items and balance sheet risks.

Prepare audit schedules, evidence packs, and responses.
Support walkthroughs and track progress against audit actions.

Perform first‑line control checks on spend approvals.
Assist with documenting and implementing control improvements.

Technical Accounting & Policy Support

Research new accounting standards and prepare briefing papers.
Support updates to accounting policies and guidance.
Escalate judgement‑based accounting issues.

Year-End, ARA & APR

Coordinate year‑end close activities.
Prepare working papers, disclosures, and supporting schedules.
Support statutory reporting and audit queries.

Capitalisation Processes

Support capitalisation processes and documentation.
Review capital additions and project accounting entries.
Assist with improving documentation and capitalisation rates.

What You’ll Need:

Essential

Part‑qualified or fully qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA or equivalent).
Strong technical accounting knowledge and understanding of financial controls.
Experience in month‑end close, reconciliations, and audit support.
Excellent attention to detail and analytical skills.

Strong communication skills and confidence engaging stakeholders.

Desirable

Experience in a financial control or audit environment.

Experience in a complex or regulated organisation.
Ambition to progress into a Financial Controller role.

What You Get in Return:

A career‑defining first move, with responsibility and ownership from day one.
Hands‑on experience across controls, audit, statutory accounts, and technical accounting.
