This vacancy is for an Apprentice Legal Cashier based in Burnley.
The successful applicant will have the opportunity to undertake valuable work experience within the accounts department whilst gaining on-the-job qualifications.
Smith Sutcliffe are a High Street legal practice and Property Sales operation based in Burnley and Padiham. Originally established in 1884 and employing around 30 people. Uniquely in the accounting sector, our Practice regulations require the strict maintenance of separate accounts and ledgers for all money held in connection with client transactions. Legal accounting therefore requires specialised knowledge of the Regulations governing the management of these funds which are audited for compliance on an annual basis as well as managing the conventional receipts and payments of the business.
We are seeking to introduce a trainee to the cashiers team to increase our resilience in the long term.
The role would primarily involve understudying the firm's principal cashier and taking on board some elements of routine work under supervision, which will expand as experience develops. The trainee would be expected to assist the partner in charge whilst the cashier was on leave of absence or otherwise engaged. In addition, the cashiers form part of our admin team providing absence cover for reception and switchboard staff, and dealing with the archiving and retrieval of documents from our secure storage, as well as general office matters where required. This will allow the trainee to develop a familiarity with our back office systems which underpin the management and control of all matters dealt with by the firm dealing with all monies received and paid as well as document production, emailing and secure storage. We anticipate that there would be a permanent role for a suitable trainee who wishes to focus on legal accounting in the longer term.
