Job Description
Every day brings a new challenge, so you’ll need to be a team player at heart with an eye for detail and great organisational skills so you can prioritise your day to ensure you meet deadlines.
With your analytical mind, you will interpret data, providing concise explanations on trends and variances, and know how to resolve problems and issues that may arise.
Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, are a must-have for this role to build relationships across the business. You will also need to build strong customer relationships with existing and new clients, gaining insight into their needs and delivering customer-centric solutions.
Together we find solutions and make things happen, but to do this we want you to contribute, looking for ways to help us get better at what we do in the most efficient and effective way.

- Oversee the preparation and completion process of Client deliverables, including agreeing time tables with clients and thereafter monitoring progress against these to ensure deliverables are on track
- Conduct regular client calls with the CFO or financial controller to ensure open and effective communication at all times.
Your long-term career goals are important to us too. We want to make sure we’re providing the support and opportunities you need to achieve your dreams so we can build a successful future together.
