Create job alert

My client is a pharmaceutical organisation based in Stockport. Due to the current incumbent going on maternity leave they are recruiting this role on a 12 month fixed term contract basis initially, but this could well go permanent as the business is growing so this is an excellent opportunity at a foot in the door.

As a Finance Analyst you will be responsible for reporting financial transactions, maintaining bank accounts with corresponding cashflow forecasts, creating invoices in line with stage payments, assist in preparing management accounts, balance sheet reconciliations and working closely with the Finance Director to support accounting and forecasting activities.

This role will suit a candidate who is working towards their CIMA/ACCA qualification who has experience in a varied transactional role with exposure to month end processes and forecasting. The salary on offer is paying up to £45,000 with an attractive benefits package
