**Who we are**

Our purpose at My Finance Function is simple: to provide a full finance function to owner-managed businesses, creating cost savings compared with hiring an in-house finance team.

We don't operate as a traditional accountancy firm, but our foundations are built upon all of the same qualities.

**About the role & the opportunity**

Stepping up your career in accountancy has never been more exciting - the industry is in the midst of its evolution into the digital era with the rapid and constant evolution of software and apps which enable business owners to have oversight of their finances in ways like never before.

- Ensuring that accounting records are complete and up to date on a regular and timely basis for the clients which you are involved with.
- Carrying out the monthly/quarterly bookkeeping responsibilities for a portfolio of clients, including processing invoices and expenses, bank reconciliations, VAT reconciliations and accounting journals.
- As an extension of this, preparing monthly/quarterly management information for a portfolio of clients for presentation in a timely manner.
- Identifying opportunities to recommend accounting products to our clients - eg, if they have employees who regularly submit expense reports, is there an app which can deal with this more effectively?

**Desired qualifications & experience**
- AAT qualified with 2+ years’ experience within an accountancy practice.
- 3 A levels at grades A-C or equivalent. Maths and English would be preferable, but not a necessity.
- GCSE or equivalent Maths and English at grade B or above.
- Full UK driving licence.
