About the Role
Join the Shared Finance Service (SFS) supporting both Sutton and Kingston Councils, two high performing London Boroughs with shared services. This apprenticeship offers the unique opportunity to work across two councils, gaining experience from a wider pool of activities and political environments. The SFS aims to add value and inspire success by delivering professional advice, safeguarding financial health, empowering customers, and supporting staff development.

You will undertake either the AAT Accounts Finance Assistant Level 2 or AAT Assistant Accountant Level 3 Apprenticeship programme, depending on your existing qualifications. Alongside your studies, you will support the Business Partnering teams by assisting with budget monitoring, financial processing, and management information creation.

Sutton is a well-connected, attractive London borough known for excellent schools, green spaces, and a thriving cultural heritage. Kingston is a Royal borough with historic charm, excellent schools, and vibrant retail and green spaces. Both councils are committed to tackling climate change and delivering ambitious regeneration projects.

This role offers a supportive and collaborative environment with opportunities to contribute ideas and develop your career within local government finance.

Requirements

Experience
No prior experience required. This is an entry-level role designed for individuals with the talent and commitment to develop a career in local government finance.

About you
Ideal candidates will demonstrate problem-solving and analytical skills, teamwork, clear communication, and alignment with the councils' values. You must be eligible to undertake an apprenticeship and willing to engage with the training provider for verification.

We seek individuals who are motivated to make a difference for local residents and who embrace the councils' PRIDE values.

Qualifications
Entry requirements depend on the apprenticeship level: either AAT Level 2 or Level 3 programme will be undertaken. No specific qualifications are required to apply, but eligibility for apprenticeship is essential.
