Apprentice Accounts Assistant

Hybrid/Newbury

A bit about us

At Gamma we provide voice, data, and mobile solutions to businesses across the UK, Germany, Spain, and the Benelux region.

Our people are at the heart of everything we do. When you join us, you’ll be part of a collaborative, forward-thinking team that’s transforming how businesses connect and communicate globally.

We’re growing fast, but we never lose sight of what matters: our people. Whether you're looking to develop your skills, take on new challenges, or make a meaningful impact, Gamma is the place to do it.

What is the role responsible for?

The apprentice would support cyclical finance activity, including month-end tasks, reporting on costs, journals, cost centre analysis, audit support and year-end work.

The apprentice will spend approximately 20% of their time studying and 80% in role. The apprenticeship is likely to suit either a school leaver starting at AAT Level 3 or someone with relevant finance experience or AAT Level 3 already completed who could start at Level 4.

What will you be doing day-to-day?

Here are a few examples of what you could be involved with:

  • Provide support to the Gamma Business finance team in the preparation of the monthly management accounts. This will include:
    • Preparation of month end journals for accruals and prepayments
    • Intercompany reconciliations
    • Maintaining fixed asset register
    • Updating monthly forex rates
    • Monthly balance sheet reconciliations
  • In addition, you will also be involved in:
    • Operational expenditure reporting (OPEX)
    • Assisting with the year end and half year audits

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.
