Initially the role will be in office. However, my client is undergoing a digital transformation process which will be completed in the next 18-24 months, which will eventually allow for a hybrid work element.

The Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate will have a minimum of 3 years' experience in a similar accounts-based role and be willing to learn new aspects of a busy finance function.
