Accounts Assistant / Assistant Accountant
Alfreton | £35,000–£40,000 | Office Based
I’m recruiting for an Accounts Assistant / Assistant Accountant to join a well-established and growing SME based in Alfreton.
This is a broad, hands-on finance role within a small team, offering exposure across payroll, purchase ledger, banking and management accounts. It would suit someone who enjoys variety and wants a role where they can take ownership of day-to-day finance responsibilities while continuing to develop their month-end experience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The role
Once settled in, the position will broadly be split across:
- Purchase ledger – 30%
- Banking – 20%
- Management accounts – 20%
- Payroll – 15%
- General finance duties – 15%
You’ll take responsibility for a varied mix of finance duties, including payroll processing and submissions, purchase ledger, supplier payments, employee expenses, bank reconciliations and month-end journals. You’ll also support with the preparation of monthly management accounts.
