The Accounts Clerk supports the hotel’s finance department during a 12-month fixed-term contract.

Candidates should have good numerical ability, strong attention to detail and basic accounting or finance experience. Familiarity with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, and accounting systems is useful. Previous hotel or hospitality experience may be advantageous but is not always essential.
