Finance Assistant Review

Mainly assisting with team-based monthly tasks. For example, the billing cycle and payables targets.
I also had a lot of project work, which was less aligned with recurring processes.
On a day-to-day basis, this meant balancing different tasks and communicating with different teams.
Examples: reviewing and presenting invoices weekly, for approval and payment, dispatching invoices to clients monthly, completing analysis of our ESG score.

Yes, I felt that the roles & projects I was given were of importance to the department and the company. I also felt that my opinion was respected when it came to things like process innovation.

I learned many new skills, such as:
Microsoft Excel proficiency
Understanding the accounting process
Soft skills - in a work environment
Time management
Presentation skills
Stakeholder communication/engagement
Data analysis

More than enough - everyone in the department is very friendly and supportive. If I ever had a question, there was always someone to ask, and I received frequent guidance/check-ins throughout my time at FDM.

Very friendly and supportive, whilst also rewarding of good work. It was my first office experience and has set the bar very high! I always looked forward to heading into the office, but there was good flexibility around WFH too.

To the fullest extent - it’s a great department in a brilliant company. The work I did was meaningful, and the people around me made it very enjoyable.
