Are you looking to progress your accounting career in a friendly, supportive finance community?
We are looking for AAT qualified or part qualified accountants to join our finance team who are also self-motivated and passionate about making a positive difference in the public service. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you
Successful candidates will be organised, persuasive, a good problem-solver and will focus on delivery and customer service. They will be able to communicate through a variety of media at all levels within the organisation. They will also have knowledge and experience of financial management, financial planning and financial appraisal.
Our Principal Finance Officers provide customer focused, effective finance business partnering skills, through building relationships with a range of budget holders and heads of service for one of the three service directorates providing high quality services to the residents of East Sussex.

However, the successful candidate should be able to demonstrate awareness of the implications of working within a public sector environment and how this affects financial management and planning arrangements.
This is an exciting opportunity to enhance your professional finance career in a team that is an accredited employer with CIPFA, CIMA, ACCA and AAT, that provides a great working environment where you are supported and given a platform to develop and opportunities to progress.
Please apply using an up-to-date CV along with a covering letter that highlights how you meet the essential criteria of the attached Job Description and why you would like to work with us. You should include examples of where you have used business partnering and spreadsheet skills in current or previous roles.
Interviews will be held at County Hall on Tuesday 4 June.
We offer flexible, and hybrid working arrangements to support a good work life balance. Pay award is pending for 2024/25.
We offer a diverse range of benefits to help and support you during your employment. More information can be found on our
