  • Communicate with clients and internal stakeholders to request documentation, clarify transactions, and resolve routine accounting queries.
  • Capture and maintain financial information accurately within accounting systems.
  • Identify missing information, discrepancies, or unusual transactions and raise these with the appropriate colleague when required.
  • Maintain supporting documentation for accounting, audit, compliance, insurance, and internal reporting purposes.
  • Support more experienced accounting colleagues with ad hoc finance and bookkeeping activities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
