Bradford, West Yorkshire

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Nordic language-speaking Assistant Accountant to join a growing finance function, offering clear progression and support towards professional qualifications (CIMA/ACCA).

Working closely with the Financial Controller and wider Controllership team, you will be responsible for supporting period-end close processes, maintaining balance sheet integrity, and gaining exposure to key technical areas including GRNI, Fixed Assets, VAT and Leases.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Perform monthly balance sheet reconciliations
  • Support month-end close activities and ensure timely reporting
  • Process journal entries accurately and efficiently
  • Contribute to internal controls and compliance (e.g., SOX)
  • Assist in technical accounting areas (e.g., VAT, Fixed Assets, Leases)
  • Carry out other ad-hoc tasks and finance projects as required

What We’re Looking For:

  • Fluency in a Nordic language (Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish or Danish)
  • Either studying or looking to start a professional accounting qualification (CIMA/ACCA)
  • Strong organisational skills and a proactive, enthusiastic approach
  • Able to work independently and as part of a collaborative team
  • Experience with SAP (preferred but not essential)

This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to develop a long-term career in finance within a supportive and dynamic environment. You'll gain hands-on experience across a wide range of financial activities and receive full study support to become a fully qualified accountant.
