A Typical Day
Most days begin by working through your inbox, prioritising urgent supplier or audit queries before settling into the books. You move between reconciliations, journal entries and review meetings, breaking out spreadsheets when something doesn’t tie up. Mid-morning calls with operations or sales help you understand the numbers behind the numbers, and the afternoon is usually given to deeper work: management reports, tax submissions or supporting a junior with a tricky reconciliation.
