Accounts Assistant

About You

Do you like a finance role that feels like you’re really part of the business, not just working a spreadsheet? Do you like to get involved with other teams and really get to know how a business works? Does your ideal role offer you variety and the chance to collaborate while having a supportive team around you?

If that sounds like you, we would love to speak to you.

About the role

This role joins our finance team in Bicester reporting to the Financial Accountant and working closely with them across the whole spectrum of financial accounting tasks: management accounts and reporting, cost analysis, cash management, year end audits and everything else that a finance team gets involved in. BRITA is a collaborative business, and you’ll be working cross-functionally with marketing, sales, manufacturing and logistics every day, exposing you to every part of how we work.

We believe in developing and progressing our people, so we are always keen to see you grow and develop with us, building a career not just doing a job. That means we are very happy to offer study support to help you grow

About BRITA

Here at BRITA we are at the forefront of sustainability and are passionate about changing the way people drink water. We are continuously striving to increase the efficiency and performance of our products with a primary focus to reduce our environmental impact!

BRITA are a forward thinking, family owned global business who care about our employees, creating career and advancement opportunities within an inclusive and diverse environment.

To be successful in this role

You’ll be organised and reliable, used to working to deadlines and already have experience in a finance role. A high level of attention to detail is a must, as are strong Excel skills (pivot tables and vlookups particularly). If you are studying towards AAT/ACCA/CIMA that would be great (and we’ll support you in doing so), but it isn’t essential.

Collaboration and communication are absolutely at the heart of everything we do at BRITA, and this role is no exception as you will be working every day with teams across BRITA, so being willing to talk with colleagues in other teams and build relationships is a must.

This is a hybrid role, with 3 days per week in our Bicester office.

Study support towards accounting qualification

23 days leave per annum (increases with service) + bank holidays

Excellent pension scheme
