This is a hands-on role offering strong exposure to management accounts, business partnering, and operational finance, ideal for someone actively studying ACCA / CIMA and looking to step up.

• Accruals, prepayments, and journals
• Supporting budgeting and forecasting cycles
• Cost analysis across warehousing, transport, and operational spend
• Business partnering with non-finance stakeholders

• Previous experience in a management accounts or assistant accountant role
• Strong Excel skills (Pivot Tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP)
• Confident communicator, comfortable working with operational teams
• Proactive, detail-oriented, and keen to progress

• Salary up to 42,000 depending on experience
• Study support package

This role would suit someone coming from an Assistant Accountant or Finance Analyst background who wants broader ownership and visibility within a commercially driven business.
