About the role

Shoreability is looking for an experienced and detail-focused Fixed Asset Administrator to join a Group Financial Accounting team on a 3-month fixed-term contract.

This is a hands-on finance assignment with a specific focus on reviewing, validating and processing outstanding capital expenditure (CAPEX) ahead of the year-end close.

You will work through a high volume of CAPEX transactions, reviewing invoices and supporting financial documentation, checking expenditure against the Group's CAPEX policy, confirming the correct approvals are in place and following up on missing or incomplete information.

Once transactions have been reviewed and approved, you will complete the required fixed asset and CAPEX processing within Oracle.

This opportunity would suit someone with experience in fixed assets, CAPEX administration, transactional finance, finance administration or accounts who is comfortable working accurately through a backlog and delivering against tight deadlines.

• Resolve processing queries or escalate matters requiring further Finance input.
• Maintain accurate records of transactions reviewed and processed.
• Work systematically through the outstanding CAPEX backlog ahead of year-end close.
• Track items reviewed, awaiting information and completed.
• Prioritise transactions in line with Finance deadlines.
• Provide progress updates on outstanding and completed CAPEX items when required.

• Previous experience within a finance, accounting or transactional finance environment.
• Experience reviewing invoices and supporting financial documentation.
• Understanding of financial controls, approvals and supporting-document requirements.
