Assistant Management Accountant

Are you looking to build on your existing finance experience and take the next step in your career? This could be just the opportunity you've been waiting for.

We're working with a growing hospitality business based in Coventry that's looking for an Assistant Management Accountant to support them through an exciting period of change and development. With big projects on the horizon and a finance function that's evolving, this role offers a brilliant opportunity to get involved, learn and grow.

You don't need to be the finished article - this isn't about finding someone who's "been there, done that". Instead, the business is looking for someone with a bit of exposure to general ledger or month-end tasks who's hungry to learn more. If you're studying towards AAT, CIMA or ACCA and eager to strengthen your skill set, you'll be well supported here.

What you'll be doing:

• Assisting with the preparation of monthly management accounts
• Posting journals, prepayments and accruals
• Helping to prepare budgets, forecasts and variance analysis
• Reconciling balance sheet accounts
• Reviewing bank reconciliations
• Supporting with the annual audit process
• Providing ad hoc cover for purchase ledger or credit control when needed
• Getting involved in wider finance projects and helping to streamline systems

What they're looking for:

• Someone currently studying AAT, CIMA or ACCA (or qualified by experience)
• A bit of exposure to general ledger or month-end work - and a real interest in developing those skills further
• Strong Excel skills and confident picking up new systems (Sage50 experience a bonus)
• A proactive, hands-on attitude - someone who enjoys rolling their sleeves up
• A great communicator who's comfortable working with people across the business

The details:

• Full-time, office-based role in Coventry
• Temporary position for 3-6 months with an immediate start
• Hospitality sector - fast-paced, friendly team environment

Summary:
A perfect opportunity for someone early in their studies or career who wants to take a step up and gain hands-on experience across management accounts and the general ledger in a growing, multi-site business.
