Job description
About The Role
We’re on the look out for a highly motivated, proactive Assistant Accountant to join our fast-paced Retail Finance team. You’ll will support an Assistant Finance Manager in the delivery of weekly forecast reporting, collaborating with FP&A and Commercial Finance teams, as well as supporting the month-end close process, by maintaining accurate working papers and reconciling to the financial statements.
This role would suit someone who’s looking for that next step in their career, or somebody who is looking for exposure to different areas of finance, to support their studies.
We know we work better when we’re together, so all our AOers come into the office Monday to Friday. We collaborate more easily, have continual conversations, we’re more creative, give better support, and all this makes us more motivated and even better at what we do.

We’re passionate, relentless and full of beans, determined to make a difference and change the world for the better. From massive changes to tiny tweaks - making a difference is what keeps us driven.
It started at a pub in Bolton with a £1 bet and a belief that things could be done better!
