Finance Assistant, Lewes – own transport required, £25,000-31,000pa (negotiable) plus study support

We’re working with a highly successful and innovative growing business on a new opportunity for a Finance Assistant to join their 3-person finance team in a progressive role. This role would suit a studier (AAT or ACCA / CIMA level) with existing accounts experience who’s looking for their next step. My client will consider candidates who are keen to study but have not yet begun if they have a clear focus on their future self-development.

This role has a clear progression path and has arisen due to the Finance Director’s upcoming planned retirement. The aim is to get this individual to the level that the FD can step away from the business and promote this individual to Financial Controller. They will work towards FD status as time progresses. Due to this, the role description below should only be seen as a starting point which will expand soon.

Our client offers attractive offices and a commercially focused finance team that are listened to and pro-actively play an integral role in the company’s continued success and reinvestment strategy. This is an ambitious business looking for career focused individuals who will actively contribute to their journey.
