Sewell Wallis are working on a rare opportunity for an experienced Assistant Accountant to join a sought-after and well-known business that can offer a clear progression path and the opportunity to gain exposure to the full management accounts process within a large, successful business.
Based in Central Leeds, the business has experienced a lot of change and development over recent years and is currently in the process of implementing a new finance system, so it's a great time to join them whilst they have plenty of new projects on the go.
They experience low turnover, which says a lot about the business as a whole, and they are looking for someone to develop, so whilst experience of accruals, prepayments, journals and balance sheet reconciliations is a must, experience beyond this can be taught.

* Producing accruals, prepayments and journals.
* Assisting with cash-flow forecasting.
* Reconciling bank statements and identifying and logging fixed assets.
* Assisting with nominal ledger including processing journals and month-end adjustments.
* Performing balance sheet reconciliations and VAT returns.
* Review processes and suggest/ implement improved ways of working.
* Provide support during the audit process.
* Assist the FC when required.
What skills are we looking for?
* Part-Qualified CIMA or ACCA.
* Excellent Excel and analytical skills.
* Self-motivated and able to work efficiently independently and as a team
* Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
* A willingness to learn.
* Ambitious with a desire to progress.
What's on offer?
* Flexibility with start/ finish times.
* Hybrid working.

* Various optional flexi benefits.
* Study support.
