We believe every business deserves access to top-quality financial insights - regardless of their size. We go beyond the books for our clients by offering flexible finance products our clients can tailor to suit their needs - from bookkeeping and CFO support.

We believe in combining industry leading technology with in-depth expertise to take every business further, faster. The solution is delivered via the Addition app.

Alongside this, you're able to deliver our vision of top-notch customer service. What does this mean? You'll need to be confident speaking directly to our wonderful clients and make sure they are happy.

You’ll also love being a manager, supporting the finance associates with their tasks, helping them to grow and upskill and be the future senior finance associates and beyond.

If you're looking for a place to grow, thrive and tackle challenges, this is the perfect job for you. You'll be part of a great team who will lend you their full support in making the complex simple.
