**The Vacancy**

We are currently in search of a talented Finance Assistant (Treasury and Investment Management) to join our Finance department and assist our Accounting Services team in the preparation of financial accounting information, ensuring accurate and timely monthly management accounts and annual statutory accounts. Some responsibilities include, preparing weekly cash reports and monitoring bank balances as well as arranging paperwork and transfer of funds and maintaining and updating bank mandates and Authorised Signatory Lists for the investment managers. A key part of this role also includes liaising with stakeholders across the Royal Academy and helping to resolve queries in a professional manner and escalate any issues where appropriate.

**About You**

It goes without saying that you will be highly numerate; also possessing strong logical and analytical skills. Ideally you will be an advanced user of Excel.

You will be well organised and have the ability to manage your workload effectively - effortlessly prioritising and meeting deadlines comfortably. You enjoy repetitive work and take pride in producing accurate work.

**The Company**

The RA dates way back to 1768 when a group of artists and architects persuaded King George lll to help them to ‘establish a society for promoting the Art of Design'. The original academy, in Pall Mall, was less than 10 meters long. Since then, there have been many changes, though the RA’s core purpose of bringing art and design to a broad audience and championing art and artists still holds true.

Today we are a contemporary art organisation hosting internationally acclaimed exhibitions and through investment in employee training and development, with courses such as Unconscious Bias, LGBTQ+ Awareness, Bystander, and Mental Health First Aid training, we are striving to foster a safe space for everyone through positive action. We also have Employee Network Groups, Ways In Groups, and an Employee Council so every employee has a voice and a way to feel heard by colleagues through the CEO.

The RA is truly a unique place, both as an attraction to our visitors, but also as a workplace. Our people are at the heart of all we do, and we support a broad and inspiring mix of departments; from exhibitions, curators, art handlers, researchers, publishers, and digital to schools and education, visitor welcome, fundraisers, and corporate support.

**The Benefits**

**Exhibitions**

Reciprocal Agreements with galleries across the UK

25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays

**Wellbeing**
