Accounts Assistant / Finance Assistant

Sevenoaks (Hybrid After Probation)

£33,000 to £35,000 + BONUS + BENEFITS

The Opportunity:

We're partnering with a well-established and growing international business that is looking to recruit an experienced Accounts Assistant / Finance Assistant to join their established finance team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with solid accounts experience who is looking for a role with greater responsibility and ownership. This is not an entry-level position, so the successful candidate will already have strong hands-on experience with cashbook management, bank reconciliations, and general finance processes.

Initially working from the Sevenoaks office during the training and onboarding period, the position will move to a hybrid working arrangement once fully settled into the role.

The Accounts Assistant / Finance Assistant Role:

  • Reporting into the finance team, taking responsibility for the day-to-day management of the cashbook
  • Completing daily bank and financial reconciliations, ensuring transactions are accurately recorded and balanced
  • Investigating discrepancies and unidentified transactions, taking ownership through to resolution
  • Processing supplier and overhead invoices and ensuring payments are made accurately and on time
  • Monitoring incoming payments and supporting the reconciliation of sales and commission income
  • Assisting with month-end processes and preparing information for monthly management reporting
  • Maintaining accurate financial records and ensuring transactions are correctly allocated within the system
  • Responding to finance queries from colleagues across the business
  • Working with high volumes of financial transactions and ensuring accuracy is maintained at all times
  • Supporting the wider Accounts team with ad hoc finance duties and ensuring the smooth running of the department

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.
