West Yorkshire | Hybrid Working | Up to £36,000 + Study Support
An excellent opportunity has arisen for a proactive and ambitious part-qualified accountant to join a well-established, market-leading business with a strong UK presence and international reach.
This is a fantastic role for someone looking to step into a more technical, commercially relevant position within a supportive environment that genuinely invests in development and progression.

*Proven month-end exposure within an industry-based finance role
*Strong grounding in financial accounting (beyond purely transactional duties)
*Confident using Excel and comfortable working with financial data
*Experience working in a structured, deadline-driven environment

Qualifications:

*Part-qualified ACCA or CIMA (or actively studying)

*Proactive and able to take ownership of responsibilities
*Confident communicator – able to build relationships across teams
*Highly organised with strong attention to detail
*Able to work independently and "hit the ground running"
