NXTGEN are supporting a high-performing, global business as they look to bring in a Senior Accounts Assistant for a 12-month FTC. If you enjoy being at the heart of a busy finance function, with a strong mix of transactional ownership and real exposure to month-end, this Senior Accounts Assistant role will give you exactly that. As Senior Accounts Assistant, you'll join a small, collaborative Head Office team where you'll take charge of day-to-day finance activity while also supporting the production of clean, accurate month-end numbers.

What you'll be involved in

  • Processing supplier invoices, payments and managing AP queries efficiently

  • Accurate supplier setup and maintenance of all records

  • Full ownership of employee expenses and reimbursement cycles

  • Completing bank reconciliations across several accounts

  • Maintaining and updating fixed asset registers

  • Preparing journals, accruals, prepayments and other core month-end entries

  • Completing balance sheet reconciliations and contributing to a clean trial balance

  • Supporting statutory data requirements, including VAT and ONS submissions

  • Providing reliable financial information to internal stakeholders

  • Identifying improvements in processes and ensuring strong control

If you're comfortable with high-volume transactional workloads and understand month-end routines and the trial balance inside out, this role will suit you perfectly. You'll step into a busy finance team where you're expected to deliver from day one, with the pace, ownership and responsibility that make a 12-month FTC exciting.

Salary offered is dependent on experience and qualifications.
Please note this is a 12 Month FTC so you will need to be able to start from the 5th of Jan 2026
