Due to our clients having been recently let down we are working with them to find an Assistant Accountant to join the team and work closely with the FD as well as the wider finance team.

Based in "the coutnryside" you'll need to drive as public transport will not get you to their offices, an award winning FCMG company turning over circa £20million, everyone I have met here has been lovely and if you like the idea of being part of a small finance team working in a beautiful countryside setting this could be for you!
