ACCA Accountant Apprentice
Cloudscaler Limited · London
What you'll do
You'll own the transactional day, so the numbers our leadership team relies on start out right.
Run the purchase ledger: process and code supplier invoices in Xero, reconcile supplier statements, answer supplier queries and prepare payment runs for approval.
Raise and chase sales invoices: raise client invoices, submit them through client portals and follow up overdue invoices, including calls to clients' accounts teams.
Reconcile the bank: match bank and card transactions every day and prepare the month-end reconciliations.
Check expenses: review, code and post expense claims in Webexpenses.
Help close the month: prepare reconciliations and schedules for review, and file the evidence our auditors will ask for.
Keep the cash forecast current: update our 13-week cash forecast with actual figures every week.
Use AI well: use Claude in your daily work, and check what it gives you. In finance, an unchecked number isn't finished.

Training you'll get
This programme enables individuals to become fully qualified in a profession which is globally recognised and respected in areas of accountancy, taxation, finance and business. ACCA is ideal if you’re looking to progress your career and become a chartered accountant, or work in an accountancy, audit or tax firm.
ACCA consists of three levels; Applied Knowledge, Applied Skills, and Strategic Professional, and you’ll need to complete relevant work experience at some point before you can qualify. ACCA qualification is made up of three levels:
Applied Knowledge helps you understand the role of accounting in the business environment, and develop the practical skills and techniques expected of an accountant working in business. You can complete Applied Knowledge in six to 12 months.
Applied Skills encourages you to develop a broad understanding of the role of accounting in business and how to interpret financial information.
By studying Strategic Professional, you'll learn advanced techniques, skills, and the professional ethics required of an accountant or consultant operating at a senior level.
