Every day brings a new challenge so you'll need to be a team player at heart, with an eye for detail and great organisational skills so you can prioritise your day to ensure deadlines are met and timelines are adhered to.

  • Strong communication skills (both written and verbal) are a must have for this role to build effective relationships across the business.

  • Your long-term career goals are important to us too.
  • We want to make sure we're providing the support and opportunities you need to achieve your dreams so we can build a successful future together.
  • This role will suit a strong accountancy professional who is willing to expand their knowledge, widen skill range and gain an insight into the world of private equity.

  • Relevant experience working in a professional office environment, ideally working in financial services or accounting practice preferably working onmultiple client relationships.
