* Experience preparing balance sheet reconciliations and supporting financial reporting.

* Excellent attention to detail with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

* A proactive team player with strong communication skills and a willingness to learn.

* Previous experience within transport, logistics, manufacturing or another operational business would be beneficial but is not essential.

In return, our client offers a competitive salary, hybrid working, study support to help you complete your professional qualification, and an excellent benefits package. You'll be joining a stable and growing business where your contribution will be recognised, and you'll have the opportunity to broaden your experience while developing your career within a supportive finance team.
