Our client, a professional and highly diverse commercial enterprise based in North Hertfordshire, is looking for an intelligent, quick thinking and highly diligent individual able to add immediate value to a well established corporate finance function.

In return, you will be made to feel very welcome and part of a diverse and inclusive culture that prides itself on achieving the highest levels of employee welfare.
