Accounts Manager

Goldhawk Associates are looking for an experienced Accounts Manager/Bookkeeper to take full ownership of finance operations within a dynamic, growing business based in Rochester. This is a varied, hands-on role where you'll oversee day-to-day financial activity, support leadership with key reporting, and ensure accurate record keeping and compliance.

Key Areas of Responsibility:

• Managing customer and supplier payments, reconciliations and cashflow
• Overseeing purchase ledger and expense processes
• Preparing and submitting regular financial returns (e.g. VAT)
• Supporting month-end and year-end reporting, including journals and reconciliations
• Handling credit control, payroll journals, and system checks
• Maintaining internal records such as fixed assets, expenses, and banking documentation
• Liaising with external contacts where needed (e.g. accountants, auditors)
• Budgeting and forecasting

This is a great role for someone who is used to working in a small business, prepared to take full ownership over day-to-day financial activities. Knowledge of Xero and Sage finance systems is advantageous. You may also be required to oversee basic offices duties which sit outside of finance and fall inline with admin duties.

Unfortunately, due to the high number of applications currently being received, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
