Assistant Finance Manager to join an established business based in
Livingston.
This is a hands-on role with real ownership: accounts payable, month-end, VAT returns, reconciliations and management accounts. You'll run the finance function independently when the Finance Manager is away, so it suits someone who's taken a full set of accounts from start to finish rather than worked purely transactionally.
What's on offer?

- 32 days annual leave including statutory days
- Company pension and Employee Assistance Programme
- Free on-site parking, staff discounts and more
Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm
Salary from £36,500+ per
annum - depending on experience
As an Assistant Finance Manager, your duties will include:
- Managing accounts payable, supplier payments, expenses and reconciliations
- Completing month-end procedures including journals, accruals, prepayments and balance sheet reconciliations
- Preparing monthly management accounts, variance analysis, KPI and cash flow reports
- Preparing VAT returns and supporting reconciliations
- Performing bank reconciliations and supporting budgeting, forecasting and year-end audits
- Covering the finance function during the Finance Manager's absence
To be considered as an Assistant Finance Manager, you will need:
- Hands-on experience preparing a full set of accounts independently is essential
- Practical experience of month-end procedures and VAT returns
- Strong Excel skills and excellent attention to detail
- Experience with Microsoft Navision or Business Central is an advantage
A minimum of 3 years' experience in a finance or accounting role
AAT qualified or studying towards ACCA or CIMA is desirable
