Contract/Project
Company Accountant (AAT Qualified) – Contract (Potential to Go Permanent)

Location: Chesterfield Salary: £32,000–£45,000 Hours: Mon–Thurs 8:30am–4:30pm | Fri 8:30am–1:00pm Start Date: Must be available to start ASAP

Francesca’s Recruitment Ltd is recruiting on behalf of a small, friendly manufacturing business in Chesterfield. This hands‑on Company Accountant role is ideal for someone with up to five years’ experience who enjoys variety, takes pride in accuracy, and thrives in a close‑knit team where everyone supports each other.

This is a contract role with the potential to become permanent, offering stability, autonomy, and a genuinely welcoming working environment.

The Opportunity

You’ll take ownership of day‑to‑day financial operations across multiple small businesses within the group. This is a practical, processing‑focused role with plenty of variety — from reconciliations and VAT to import/export routines and supporting a systems transition.

Because this is a small business, you’ll also help with general office duties, including answering the phone and greeting visitors. It’s a role for someone who’s happy to get stuck in and be part of a supportive team.

Key Responsibilities

*

Daily bank reconciliations and transaction posting

*

Credit card statement reconciliation

*

Purchase and sales ledger management

*

Payroll spreadsheet preparation

*

VAT returns and import VAT record maintenance

*

Monthly journals and balance sheet reconciliations

*

Fixed asset register maintenance

*

Year‑end support and stock count postings

*

SAP Business One transition support

*

General office duties and admin cover

*

Answering the phone and welcoming visitors

About You

*

AAT qualified or at final study level

*

Ideally from a practice background

*

Up to five years’ accounting experience

*

Strong Excel skills and excellent attention to detail

*

Confident with processing tasks and import/export routines

*

Organised, self‑motivated, and professional

*

Happy working in a small team and supporting wider office tasks

*

Available to start immediately

This role suits someone who enjoys a steady, well‑rounded workload and values being part of a friendly, collaborative environment. While progression is limited due to company size, the variety and autonomy make this a rewarding long‑term opportunity.

What’s On Offer

*

Early finish every Friday

*

Supportive, close‑knit team culture

*

Exposure to multiple businesses and varied accounting tasks

*

Involvement in system transitions and process improvements

*

A stable, hands‑on role with real responsibility

*

Contract position with potential to become permanent

If you’re ready to join a small, friendly team and bring your accounting skills into a role that values accuracy, teamwork, and variety, apply today or contact Francesca’s Recruitment Ltd for more information
