  • Participating in month-end close processes for accurate management reports.
  • Monitoring client fees, analyzing performance vs. targets, and tracking POs.

This role requires travel within the UK to our various office locations.

Key skills and attributes :

  • Excellent communication skills and ability to build relationships.
  • Numerate with meticulous attention to detail.
  • Ability to work under pressure with large data volumes and meet deadlines.
  • Highly organized with good time management and prioritization skills.
