About Gills

Gills Meat Products is a well-established UK food manufacturer supplying fresh and frozen products across retail, foodservice, and wholesale markets. The business operates at pace, with high expectations and clear accountability.

We are commercially driven, results-focused, and expect individuals to take ownership of performance from day one.

The Role

We are seeking a highly capable Graduate Finance Assistant to support the finance department across a broad range of commercial and operational activities.

This is not a passive graduate role. You will work directly with senior leadership and gain exposure to the financial and operational running of a fast-paced manufacturing business. You will be expected to take ownership of tasks quickly, work accurately under pressure, and contribute to improving financial reporting and controls across the business.

This role is suited to individuals who are analytical, detail-oriented, commercially aware, and motivated by progression.

Finance & Operational Support

Supporting purchase ledger, supplier reconciliations, invoice processing, and query resolution
Assisting with month-end reporting, reconciliations, and financial analysis
Supporting stock reporting, stock take processes, and operational cost analysis
Assisting with payroll administration, expense processing, and financial record management
Maintaining accurate financial and operational records to a high standard

Reporting & Analysis

Preparing financial reports, spreadsheets, and management information
Supporting analysis of margins, costs, variances, and operational performance
Identifying trends, discrepancies, and areas requiring investigation
Assisting with budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow reporting

Systems & Process Improvement

Supporting implementation and improvement of financial controls and reporting systems
Working closely with operational departments to improve accuracy and efficiency of reporting
Assisting with process reviews and identifying opportunities for operational improvement

What We Are Looking For

Degree from a Russell Group or red-brick university, or exceptionally strong A-level results (A*/A grades)
Strong numerical and analytical ability with high attention to detail
Strong competency in Microsoft Excel (VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, formulas, and data handling) and Microsoft Word
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Commercially aware with an interest in finance, operations, and business performance
Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities under pressure
Intellectually capable, proactive, and willing to take ownership of tasks and outcomes

Development & Benefits

Option to be funded through a recognised professional finance qualification (ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent of your choice), including tuition fees, study materials, and exam costs
Structured study time alongside a full-time commercial role
Direct exposure to senior leadership and involvement in financial and operational decision-making
Comprehensive internal training across finance systems, reporting, and manufacturing operations
Clear and accelerated progression pathway within a growing business based on performance
Experience operating within a fast-paced, results-driven manufacturing environment

Requirements

Full UK driving licence and own vehicle (required)
Strong IT literacy and confidence working with financial systems and Excel-based reporting
Immediate right to work in the UK is essential (no visa sponsorship)

Selection Process

Candidates will be required to complete a Thomas International behavioural assessment as part of our selection process, followed by a structured on-site interview including analytical and scenario-based assessment.

Only candidates demonstrating strong analytical capability, attention to detail, and commercial awareness will progress.
