Your new company
You'll be joining a small, friendly, and supportive business based in North Nottingham. The company prides itself on its welcoming culture, collaborative team environment, and down‑to‑earth approach to work. This 3‑month interim Finance Assistant position has become available due to an upcoming retirement, and the team is keen to bring someone in to ensure a smooth handover. The role will initially be fully office‑based, with the option for some hybrid working once training has been completed.
Your new role
As the Finance Assistant, you will report directly to the Management Accountant and support the day‑to‑day running of the finance function. Your responsibilities will include:

- Raising sales invoices and assisting with credit control as required
- Reconciling supplier statements and resolving invoice queries
- Posting and allocating payments
- Assisting with bank reconciliations
- Supporting month‑end tasks and general ledger postings
- Handling ad‑hoc administrative and finance duties to support the wider team
Experience using financial software is essential. Knowledge of SAGE Line 50 is desirable but not required if you are confident using other accounting systems.
What you'll need to succeed
To be successful in this role, you will have:
- At least 3 years' experience in Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
- Strong numerical accuracy and organisational skills
- Experience with financial software (SAGE Line 50 desirable)
- The ability to work independently and effectively within a small team
- Good communication and problem‑solving skills
- Qualified by experience (QBE) is perfectly acceptable
What you'll get in return
- £16.09 per hour, paid weekly
- A 3‑month interim contract, supporting a smooth retirement handover
- A friendly, supportive working environment
- Office‑based initially, with flexible home working once trained
- The chance to make a meaningful contribution during a key transition period
