Job responsibilities

The role offers excellent development opportunities for someone with strong numerical and organisational skills who is keen to learn, work collaboratively, and build a successful career in finance. Throughout your apprenticeship, you will be supported to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed for a future career in NHS finance whilst contributing to the continued success of our subsidiary businesses.

As a Finance Assistant Apprentice, you will support the Subsidiary Finance Team in delivering a high-quality finance service across our subsidiary companies. You will gain hands-on experience in a wide range of financial activities, including supporting month-end processes, processing journals, managing supplier payments, raising invoices, investigating financial queries, maintaining financial records, and assisting with the production of management information. This role offers genuine variety and the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of how finance supports the wider organisation and its operational services.

Alongside your practical experience, you will undertake a Level 3 Finance Apprenticeship, studying towards the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) Level 3 qualification. You will be provided with dedicated study time and off-the-job training, ensuring you have the support needed to succeed both academically and professionally.

We are looking for someone who is motivated, curious and eager to learn.

Previous experience in an office, customer service or finance environment would be advantageous, although not essential.

This is a 22-month fixed-term position, aligned to the completion of the apprenticeship programme. Upon successful completion, you will have gained valuable experience, a recognised professional qualification, and a strong foundation for a future career in finance. The qualification also provides an excellent pathway to further study, including progression to AAT Level 4 and full AAT membership.

Due to the nature of the role, you will be organised, adaptable and able to manage competing priorities effectively. You will have strong numerical and analytical skills, excellent attention to detail, and a commitment to delivering high standards of work. You will be comfortable using Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel, and will demonstrate initiative, professionalism and a willingness to learn in a fast-paced finance environment.
