Junior finance assistant

Lawgent is looking for an ambitious and commercially minded individual who wants to combine finance, client responsibility and business development in a role with significant independence.

This is not a traditional Finance Assistant position focused solely on bookkeeping and administration.

At Lawgent, financial responsibility goes hand in hand with commercial responsibility. You will work with our financial operations while also managing your own clients, developing client relationships and contributing directly to revenue generation.

About the Role

As a Junior Finance & Business Associate, you will work across both finance and commercial operations.

You will gradually take responsibility for your own portfolio of clients and will be expected to independently develop those relationships and create measurable business value.

Your responsibilities will include:

Processing supplier invoices and customer invoices

Accounts payable and accounts receivable

Bank and transaction reconciliations

Following up outstanding payments

Supporting payroll, financial reporting and closing activities

Coordinating with external accountants and auditors

Managing your own client relationships

Following up clients and identifying their business needs

Identifying new commercial opportunities

Contributing directly to sales and revenue growth

Using AI and automation to improve financial and administrative processes

How We Work

Lawgent operates on a principle of freedom with responsibility.

We do not believe in managers constantly monitoring whether employees are sitting at their desks between 08:00 and 17:00 or checking every individual task they complete.

We measure results.

You will therefore have considerable freedom, but that freedom comes with responsibility.

You are expected to:

Plan and prioritize your own work

Take ownership of your clients

Follow up opportunities

Meet deadlines and commitments

Take initiative

Solve problems independently
