D. M. Keith Limited

We are looking for an Assistant Accountant to join
our accounts team based in Leeds.


About the Business

Our business started over 60 years ago and has been in the
same family ever since. From our very humble beginnings, we have grown to be in
the top 50 car dealers in the country. Across our 26 businesses we have a
stable workforce of over 600 people, many of whom have been with us for years.
We are always on the lookout for nice, genuine people who genuinely care about
our customers and have a can do attitude.

Our recruitment philosophy is that we recruit for attitude
and train for skills, which means that although we’re often looking for
specific technical skills, if you like working with customers and you are
attracted by our Family Values of Fit, Fun, Family and Fearless, you’ll
fit in well here and we’d like to hear from you even if you have no experience
of the automotive industry.

We’ll expect you to work hard, but in return we’ll offer you
an industry leading package and a real opportunity to progress: we prefer to
promote from within and you will see this in every one of our sites. You must
possess an outrageous ambition to want to be the best and you won’t let anyone
stop you.
