Our client is a large global investment fund whose Athens office is a key hub supporting their global investment activity. As a result of firm growth, they're now looking to hire an Accounts Assistant.

As Accounts Assistant, you'll report into the Athens-based Financial Controller and support the finance team with day-to-day accounting across the business. You'll process and code supplier invoices and expenses, prepare bank and supplier reconciliations, raise sales invoices and support month-end close. You'll also help with VAT and statutory reporting, assist with audit requests and keep accurate financial records. You'll work closely with finance colleagues in Athens and other offices, with the chance to contribute to process improvements.

For this we are looking to speak with junior accounting professionals with a degree in accounting, finance or a related field and 1-5 years' experience in an accounts or finance support role. Strong Excel skills are essential, as is a good grasp of double-entry bookkeeping and fluent English and Greek. Experience in financial services or with an ERP system is helpful but not essential. Above all, we want someone with great attention to detail who communicates clearly and takes ownership of their work.

The firm is looking to hire someone who'll get real exposure to a global finance function, working directly with an experienced Financial Controller, with clear progression within a collaborative, well-resourced firm. The package is dependant on the candidate, but will include a generous range of benefits, including private health and study support towards a professional qualification. The firm has excellent retention, which reflects its positive culture. The role is fully office-based in Athens.
