Assistant Management Accountant in Billingham - Paul Card Recruitment Ltd

Most finance roles cover similar ground: month-end, reports, reconciliations. But not all of them give you the same level of variety, autonomy, and exposure to the wider business.

This 12-month maternity cover position offers just that.

You'll be stepping into a well-supported role with a strong handover in place. And while this is a fixed-term contract, opportunities like this have previously led to longer-term roles.

About the company:

You'll join a well-established, privately-owned company operating in a sector that continues to grow. The business maintains strong financial discipline and a proactive approach to expansion, with a finance function that works closely alongside operational teams.

The culture is collaborative and progressive, you'll find a genuine opportunity to develop your skills, contribute meaningfully, and take on increasing responsibility within a supportive environment.

What you'll be doing:

• Overseeing key month-end processes: ledgers, bank reconciliations, accruals, prepayments, and intercompany charges.
• Assisting with the preparation of monthly management accounts
• Supporting year-end schedules and annual budgeting
• Providing ad hoc finance support to operational teams

What we're looking for:

• Experience in a similar finance role
• Strong knowledge of Excel
• A detail-oriented, organised approach
• A proactive individual with the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively in a fast-paced environment.

What's on offer:

• Annual bonus
• Hybrid working (3 days working from home)
• This is a role that offers real scope to contribute, learn and grow within a forward-thinking business.
• A role that aligns perfectly with your AAT qualification, put your training to use in a hands-on, commercially focused environment
