About HF

People. Not just lawyers

We’re not your typical law firm – we’re people with a passion for helping our clients and each other achieve the best possible outcomes. We are leading legal advisers to the insurance and commercial sectors across the UK & Ireland, known for our innovation, client focus, and long-lasting relationships. We do things differently, with a forward-thinking approach built around our clients’ needs, supported by cutting-edge technology and a culture built around people from a wide range of backgrounds who are taking an equally wide range of routes to building their careers in law.

Due to an increase in instructions, our Finance department is looking to recruit an Accounts Assistant to work within our transactional finance team on a permanent basis, primarily working from home or from our office in MediaCityUK.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to enhance their career in Finance, we welcome applications from anyone who has previous transactional finance experience and if that includes knowledge of Aderant, even better!

This role is fast paced so you’ll never be bored at work. You will aid the wider Accounts team via the accurate processing of financial transactions and reviewing invoices onto the firm’s accounting software as well as providing billing assistance to our Fee Earners. You will review and process client account payments in line with SRA Solicitor Account rules and regulations as well as monitoring bank and credit card transactions.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.

This is what the Hiring Manager, Ian, says about the role;

“We are currently in an exciting period of change as a firm, with some recent new acquisitions joining HF, providing new and exciting challenges. These changes provide opportunities for learning and developing new skills within our very fast paced but friendly team.”

What do I need?

You will have previous experience of working within a high-volume transactional Accounts position, with experience preferable within a Legal setting. Ideally you will have experience using Aderant with excellent attention to detail and exceptional organisational and interpersonal skills. You will also be competent in the use of Microsoft Office applications including Excel and Word. With the ability to work under pressure and produce accurate output. With a Team player attitude and the ability to thrive in a busy, fast-paced environment!

We are not your stereotypical corporate law firm. We have a relaxed dress code; you can be yourself at work. We offer hybrid working meaning you only have to come into the office once or twice a month, (after successfully completing your training). Although if you want to see us more, that’s also fine!
