ASSISTANT MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT – PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
LONDON – 3 DAYS IN OFFICE, 2 FROM HOME – PERMANENT – A GROWING PROFESSIONAL SERVICES BUSINESS WITH A REAL FOCUS ON FINANCE DEVELOPMENT
£38,000–£43,000 + bonus
Are you a part-qualified accountant ready to take real ownership of month-end and reporting? Do you want to broaden your experience and build towards qualifying in a team that backs your progression?
We Do Group are hiring an Assistant Management Accountant for a growing specialist recruitment business in London. This is a broad role at the heart of the finance team, owning a real chunk of the month-end close, the management accounts, and the reporting that helps the business make good decisions.
It suits an early stage studier/part-qualified accountant who already has some month-end exposure and wants to round out their experience across reporting, reconciliations, and working with non-finance colleagues. There's a genuine path here too - clear progression towards a fully qualified, business-partnering role.
WISH LIST
• Existing finance experience, ideally with some exams already passed
• Exposure to month-end, reconciliations and journals
• Comfortable explaining the numbers to non-finance colleagues, or ready to grow into it
THE ROLE
• Support the month-end close, including expense allocation, intercompany recharges and revenue reporting

• Update the weekly cash flow, working capital and trends
• Reconcile revenue weekly between the CRM and the accounting system
• Maintain the general ledger, keeping it accurate and complete
• Support ad-hoc finance projects and analysis as required
• Work closely with the finance team to keep priorities and reporting on track
YOUR PROFILE
• Early stage studier/part-qualified accountant (ACCA or CIMA), with some exams passed
• Effective communicator - written and verbal
• Good working knowledge of MS Excel (pivots, lookups, sumifs)
• Experience supporting month-end close, reconciliations and journals
• Comfortable working across finance and with non-finance colleagues
• Any exposure to Xero or Workday Adaptive Planning is a bonus, not essential
