We were asked to recruit an Accounts Assistant in Guildford to support the finance function of a growing business. This role sat within a small and collaborative team offering hybrid working and the chance to develop new skills. It highlighted the demand for reliable finance recruitment in Surrey, where businesses need accurate and consistent support to keep things running smoothly.
Core responsibilities
The role involved assisting with credit control, updating project details in Sage and Excel, processing monthly statements, and liaising with clients to resolve invoice queries. It also included supporting colleagues with ad-hoc accounting duties and project administration.
Skills and experience required
The business was looking for someone with proven accounts administration experience, strong Excel skills, and excellent attention to detail. Knowledge of Sage was advantageous, alongside good communication skills and the ability to work independently as well as part of a team.
