Job Description

Accounts and Administration Assistant – Hayle – Up to £29,000

Trial Balance Consulting have been re-engaged by a long-standing client: a well-established services business based in Hayle, known for their strong staff retention and development. I’ve been tasked with sourcing their new Accounts and Administration Assistant to join a small but highly experienced finance team.

This is a full-time, permanent role, based at the company’s headquarters on the outskirts of Hayle (free onsite parking available!)

Reporting to a highly experienced, and very friendly, Finance Manager, this is a data-focused position covering a wide range of accounting tasks.

Key responsibilities include:

• Inputting purchase ledger invoices and allocating them to relevant department heads for approval

• Raising and submitting sales ledger invoices

• Assisting the credit control team with aged debtor management

• Supporting account reconciliations and journal postings

• Preparing costing information for ongoing projects

• Lending a hand with wider finance team tasks and projects during busy periods

This would suit an enthusiastic and motivated individual who’s eager to grow their accounting knowledge. A team-oriented attitude, strong communication skills, and the ability to liaise confidently with colleagues, suppliers, and customers are essential. This is a varied, interesting role combining finance administration and customer interaction, perfect for someone looking to develop in a supportive, close-knit team.

My client is keen to appoint quickly, so please get in touch quoting reference EB10639 for more info.
