For this role, we’re more focused on relevant experience than qualification, so we welcome applications from those who are part/fully AAT or qualified by experience.

This is a highly visible role that regularly interacts with colleagues throughout the business, so great communication skills are a must! Good general IT experience and competency in the use of MS Excel and cloud-based accounting platforms would be highly desirable skills.
