* Excellent communicator, to both those holding a sound financial understanding and those without.

* Pro-active self-starter who will take clear ownership of their departmental activity and develop it to the next level to align with business growth.

* The ability to prioritise and manage your own workload to fulfil all deadlines and legislative requirements.

* Experience with invoice financing.

* Understanding of exchange rates and buying/selling currency.

* Budget and cashflow forecasting.

* Ensure all HMRC filings and payment deadlines are met.

* Maintain the fixed asset register and reports.

* Oversee exchange rates and buying/selling of currency.
