London, United Kingdom Pennyhills Full time

Our business aims to promote freedom, break through socio-economic barriers, and champion sustainability. Our team of dedicated remote accountants provides professional client care that is secure and sustainable. We advise a wide range of clients in the UK and overseas and always take the time to listen carefully to our client's needs and goals.

Our clients want a professional service, but they also want to work with people who are approachable, interested in them, and who put them at ease. To ensure this, our recruitment process places as much emphasis on personality as academic and technical skills.

We offer apprenticeship training for AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) qualifications, and there is potential to progress to further professional qualifications. Additionally, we train all technical staff at every stage of their careers.

We maintain high professional standards while also fostering a relaxed atmosphere where a good sense of humour is regarded as an essential attribute.

**Vacancy description**

A broad range of accounting and finance tasks will be undertaken providing experience across our activities. Tasks at some point would include but not limited to:

- Data entry for the weekly and monthly client payrolls

**Training to be provided**

You will undertake the “Accounts / Finance Assistant” Apprenticeship (an Intermediate Apprenticeship in Accounting), with full support from Accountancy Learning as part of their Flexible Apprenticeship Programme.

Assessment will be by an “End Point Assessment”, which will include the following two elements:

- A Structured Interview. This will consist of 10 questions asked by an AAT Independent Assessor. It will last 60 minutes and will be performed remotely via the AAT on-line video portal. The questions will allow you to to display the knowledge and experience you have obtained over your apprenticeship. You will build a Portfolio of reflections and product evidence that will be used to support your answers to these 10 questions.
- An In-tray Test. This will be undertaken under exam conditions and will last 105 minutes. It will be based on what you have studied in your AAT Level 2 Certificate in Accounting.

Completing the AAT Level 2 Certificate in Accounting is a mandatory element of the Accounts / Finance Assistant Apprenticeship. Your Apprenticeship will, therefore, include formal studies towards this qualification. Your apprenticeship duration is anticipated to be for 13 months, although this can be flexed to the apprentice's needs, provided the duration exceeds one year and a week.

You will receive support from both the employer and the training provider, to complete and achieve your Apprenticeship and will be given time to study during the week on a day-release basis. As you are working towards a professional qualification, it is also expected that you will continue your studies outside of normal office hours.

As you learn more in both the office and in your studies your responsibilities, and the variety of tasks you undertake, are expected to increase.
