Full-time | Permanent | 37.5 hours per week

We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established business in the Borehamwood area, looking to appoint an Assistant Management Accountant to join their supportive and collaborative finance team.

This is an exciting role with hybrid working, excellent benefits, and the chance to get stuck into a broad set of responsibilities across management accounts, revenue reporting, reconciliations, and systems oversight.

This role gives you the opportunity to wear many hats! Plenty of variety and scope to grow.

This position would be ideal for a finance professional with a background within a service-based industry, understands the nuances of revenue flows, cost allocations, and the operational pace of a multi-entity or seasonal business.

About the role:

This role sits within a multi-entity business with a strong customer focus and a service-based model, making it ideal for someone with experience in a similar setting, such as hospitality, travel, accommodation, or event-based businesses.

As Assistant Management Accountant, you'll support the month-end process and play a hands-on role in financial reporting, income tracking, balance sheet management and system uploads. You'll be part of a small, experienced team with plenty of exposure to the wider business, so great communication and problem-solving skills are key.

This is a varied role with real ownership and the chance to develop. You'll also be involved in streamlining processes and supporting the finance function in its ongoing growth.

Your responsibilities will include:

Preparing income statements, balance sheets, and supporting financial documents
Monitoring revenue flows and ensuring accurate allocation across key systems
Monthly balance sheet reconciliations and reviewing transactional accuracy
Managing key bank accounts, including allocations and reconciliation
Uploading and reviewing weekly data from operational systems
Supporting with accruals, prepayments and journal posting
Assisting with audit prep and financial reporting tasks
Partnering with other departments to ensure data integrity
Maintaining controls and following internal procedures to reduce risk
General finance support including ad-hoc reporting, data analysis and systems queries

What we're looking for:

Minimum 2 years' experience in a similar accounts role
Strong understanding of income and expenditure within a service-based business
Confident using finance systems, Excel and reporting tools
Ability to analyse complex data and summarise clearly for non-finance colleagues
Organised, detail-focused and proactive in solving problems
Great team player with a positive, collaborative attitude

Desirable:

Experience in hospitality, events, travel or leisure industries
Understanding of fixed assets and multi-site revenue
AAT Level 4 or actively studying ACCA/CIMA

Why apply?

Hybrid working (office based in Borehamwood)
Great holiday allowance
Great staff benefits including discounts, wellness support and more
Supportive team culture with real opportunities for progression
Be part of a values-led business with strong ethics and a people-first approach

How Many Data Science Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Science Job?

If you’re trying to break into data science — or progress your career — it can feel like you are drowning in names: Python, R, TensorFlow, PyTorch, SQL, Spark, AWS, Scikit-learn, Jupyter, Tableau, Power BI…the list just keeps going. With every job advert listing a different combination of tools, many applicants fall into a trap: they try to learn everything. The result? Long tool lists that sound impressive — but little depth to back them up. Here’s the straight-talk version most hiring managers won’t explicitly tell you: 👉 You don’t need to know every data science tool to get hired. 👉 You need to know the right ones — deeply — and know how to use them to solve real problems. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many data science tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is not “27” — it’s more like 8–12, thoughtfully chosen and well understood. This guide explains what employers really value, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your toolbox so your CV and interviews shine.

This guide helps you understand exactly what hiring managers look for first in data science applications — and how to structure your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you leap to the top of the shortlist.
