Hiring Accounts and Finance Staff in Cheshire and Manchester

At Synergy, we understand that a well-oiled Accounts and Finance team is essential to any business. We also know the headache that can be caused when somebody from that well-oiled team moves on, and all of their technical knowledge and experience walks out of the door!

That’s where we come in. By taking the time to deeply understand your business needs, we’re able to find exactly what you’re looking for.

You need a recruitment solution that will save you time and stress; by only presenting candidates that meet your requirements and fit in with your team. That’s exactly what we do. No more time wasted with irrelevant CVs!

How to hire Accounts and Finance Staff | The Synergy Way

We understand that when you’re recruiting for Accounts and Finance staff, you need people with the right knowledge and technical ability. As an SME, the fit with your team is essential and we’re passionate about finding somebody that is a match in skillsets AND personality.

As a local agency, we also understand the unique needs of our geographical area. Just because a commute looks doable on Google Maps, doesn’t mean a real human would actually want to do it. There’s no point having the perfect candidate if they can’t get to the office!

You won’t get loads of CVs from us, because let’s face it, if you had time to do the sifting yourself, you wouldn’t be paying an agency to do it. The only CVs you’ll get, are candidates that you’ll want to meet. Freeing up your time to get on with your job!

Give us a call to start your journey with Synergy Recruitment.

Accounts & Finance FAQ’s

What are typical Accounts & Finance job titles?

There are many roles that fall under the banner of accounts and finance. It is a diverse industry with a wide range of positions. To add complexity, some businesses will use job titles differently than others. For example, in some companies a Financial Controller is more senior than a Finance Manager but in other businesses the Finance Manager is more senior.

Typical job titles include:

  • Accounts Assistant
  • Bookkeeper
  • Accountant
  • Management Accountant
  • Finance Manager
  • Financial Controller

What is the difference between industry and practise?

Working in practise means to work for an accountancy firm across a range of clients. Working in industry means you work in-house for one business

What qualifications do you need to work in accounts & finance?

This entirely depends on the role. Some accounting positions are OK with you simply being qualified by experience (QBE). Most will ask that you at least have a minimum of a Level 2 AAT qualification as a starting point. For more senior roles you may need to be fully AAT qualified to Level 4.

If you wish to become a fully chartered accountant, you will need to progress to the ACCA, ACA or CIMA qualifications.

Whilst a degree in accountancy is not essential, it can make you exempt from some of the exams required to achieve fully chartered status.

Should I do a CIMA or ACCA qualification?

This depends on what interests you and how you would like your accounting career to progress. The CIMA qualification would suit you if you are looking to pursue a management or strategic business role such as a Management Accountant, Business Analyst or Financial Controller. Whereas the ACCA qualification would be more appropriate if you are looking to gain specialist accounting knowledge and skills, as it focusses on the advanced skills and principles of accounting.
