About the role
What a accounts assistant does in London.
A London business hiring a accounts assistant — or a candidate weighing up an offer — deserves a real figure, not a national average dressed up as local. Day to day, that typically includes any other ad hoc duties supporting senior management — one of several things a accounts assistant in London is trusted to get right. Locally, that includes shared service centres running payroll and ledgers for multiple sites or brands. In a market like London, that local knowledge is what turns a rough estimate into a figure you can actually act on.
