Accounts Assistant
Yeovil | Hybrid (4 days in office) | £27,000 – £33,000 per annum
Looking for a finance role where you can learn, grow and make a real difference?
The Opportunity
Right Pear is partnering with an established Yeovil-based business to recruit an Accounts Assistant into its finance team on a permanent, full-time basis.
The business is going through an exciting period of investment and development, including a review of how its finance function works and where processes can be improved. That makes this a great time to join. You’ll be part of a small, supportive team with access to experienced senior finance professionals, and you’ll have the chance to shape how things are done rather than just follow a set routine.
This role suits someone early in their finance career who has a solid technical foundation and wants to keep building on it.
The Role
You’ll support the day-to-day running of the finance function, working closely with the wider finance team.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Processing and posting transactions accurately in the accounting system
- Preparing and reviewing reconciliations, including balance sheet reconciliations
- Supporting month-end processes and the preparation of management information
- Building and maintaining Excel workbooks, with linked worksheets and formula-driven reporting
- Checking work carefully for accuracy and resolving discrepancies
- Following structured finance processes and suggesting ways to improve them
- Helping the business make better use of its systems and data as the finance function develops
About You
We’re keen to speak with detail-focused finance professionals who enjoy getting things right and want to grow their careers.
You’ll ideally have:
- AAT qualified or an equivalent background.
- Experience using Xero (Sage 50 experience is also useful)
- Strong Excel skills
- Excellent attention to detail
- Good verbal communication skills and confidence working with colleagues across the business
- The ability to commute to Yeovil four days a week
The Package
- £27,000 - £33,000 per annum
- Hybrid working: 4 days in the Yeovil office, 1 day from home
- Enhanced Pension contribution + additional benefits available on request
- Some flexibility around school drop-off and pick-up, with an early finish on a Friday
- On-site parking
- The chance to develop within a finance function that is being built for the future
Why Apply?
This is a genuine opportunity to grow your finance career in a business that is investing in its team and processes. You’ll gain broad, hands‑on experience, learn from experienced finance professionals, and have real input into how the function improves.
