Accounting Technician

The Abacus Talent Group is an award-winning, locally owned and managed service business, the key parts of the group are the recruitment business Abacus Careers and the events business PoweredByTalent. One of our colleagues from the Finance department, Claire, is going off on maternity leave in September to have her first baby (we are nearly as excited as she is. A number of the team have even offered advice on a name for her baby). As a result, we now need to appoint a new member to the team to ensure the smooth running of the department.

On offer to the successful candidate appointed as Accounting Technician:

• 4 day week – 2 days per week in the office in Belfast city centre
• 1 year contract with £2k completion bonus
• Basic salary to £28,000 per annum
• 30 days holiday including 9 statutory days

At Abacus, we take great pride in finding the right person for the job – no more so as when we are recruiting for our own team. Before we list skills, qualifications and duties, we feel it is important that you understand and ‘buy in’ to our culture.

Our values centre upon quality, innovation, partnership, excellence and solutions. For example, with Abacus we believe, if the quality requirement is met, all else will work out. Our team understands that tasks need to be completed to the correct level, not doing so is unfair on others.

If you are successful in your application and join as Accounting Technician, you can guarantee you will make friends and enjoy working with our team. We have regular team events, staff lunches, nights out and plan to have some activities in the months ahead too.
