Contract: 12-month fixed-term contract Location: Poole, Dorset Diversity matters We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It’s what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future. We see you, we celebrate you, we want you! Who we are You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there’s more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good. The Living Wage Foundation’s statement 'a hard day's work deserves a fair day's pay' is one that we are proud to commit to in the UK. As an accredited Living Wage employer, we put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what’s inside that counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone. Lush Limited supplies all our global manufacturing sites with fragrances made from top-quality natural essential oils sourced worldwide. We also supply finished Perfumes from our innovative range and manage the cost base for growing, developing, and protecting the Lush brand globally. You will be part of a dynamic and busy finance team that directly supports the business, from the founders to the global support teams. As such, this role requires strong communication skills and attention to detail. The Lush Limited Finance team is based in Poole, and this role offers hybrid working (specific details to be confirmed), working alongside two other Purchase Ledger Assistants. You will be responsible for day-to-day finance function tasks whilst working under the supervision of the Management Accountant. Career Progression & Development The role would suit someone studying or interested in studying towards a finance qualification and looking for an opportunity to develop their accounting career within a thriving business. Personal development is embedded in the Lush culture and is fundamental to our success. We aim to ‘promote from within’ where possible, and the majority of our senior managers have worked their way up through the company. Lush has various different finance functions in the UK with opportunities to progress in Lush Limited, Group Finance, Manufacturing, Retail and Digital Finance. We also have regular international opportunities arising from our ‘no borders’ mentality. Want to see where a career at Lush could take you? Head over here to explore real stories of growth and development across the business. Please note: We may close this vacancy early if we receive an overwhelming response or our business requirements change.
