Our staff tell us that this is a great place to work, so they tend not to leave us very often. But we are always happy to talk to people who have a high level of expertise in financial planning and money management, coaching and counselling. If that describes you, please send us your CV and we'll contact you to arrange a discussion.
Current Vacancies
At the moment we're looking for a part-time Accounts Manager to join our team. You'll need to have previous experience in an accounting or related position, and you'll very likely have made, or be making, good progress towards relevant qualifications.
Your role will be to handle the day-to-day administration of the three companies that currently make up the Chesterton House group. This will include receiving and dealing with payments, invoices and receipts, and entering these into our accounting records, using Quickbooks software. You'll be responsible for tracking and reconciling payments received from and on behalf of clients, as well as staff administration and payroll preparation.
In addition you'll help to prepare regular reports to keep us informed of our key business metrics, and to recommend actions where appropriate.
You'll liaise with our external accounts advisers to prepare periodic returns and fulfil our statutory and regulatory obligations.
Initially the role will be based on 15 hours a week, but we expect it to grow over time and we'd like you to be able to grow with it, so some flexibility will be essential. We have some ideas for extending the range of services to our clients that you may be involved in, so an entrepreneurial streak might be helpful too. In particular we're considering offering a personal tax return service, so experience in completing and filing returns would be a distinct advantage so that you can help us to put proper processes in place.
If this sounds like the sort of position you'd enjoy, send your CV to our Company Secretary, Sue Jervis, with details of your salary expectation and any other relevant information to help us to assess your application, and contact details so that we can arrange a discussion.
We're looking forward to hearing from you.
