Abbeydale Brewery is a successful, employee owned Sheffield based brewery which this year celebrates their 30th anniversary. We are looking to recruit a part-time (25 hours per week) thorough and conscientious Finance & Admin Assistant, to join our friendly and growing team. The role will be based in our offices just off Abbeydale Road, and will involve working with our experienced finance and management team to help with the running of the brewery and our two venues.

What we’re looking for:
- Someone who takes a meticulous, detailed approach to their work – the kind of person who is naturally precise and cares about doing a job well, with superb attention to detail
- A reliable and responsible person who approaches challenges in a positive manner, is self-motivated to learn new skills and has excellent time management skills
- A good general level of education, preferably to at least A-level (or equivalent). Maths or related disciplines would be an advantage as the successful candidate will need to be comfortable handling and interpreting data
- Experience of working in a busy and multi-functional office would be helpful
- Comfortable working to high professional standards and with understanding of the values of an independent business
- Computer literate, Excel in particular. Experience with Xero, Sage or similar would be advantageous
- As the role will require some visits to our venues (all in Sheffield), a current driving license is required, although company vehicles can be available.
Main responsibilities will include:
- Processing financial information and analysing data to produce accurate weekly reports
- Tracking and solving problems in a thorough, detailed manner
- Stock control for our two venues and brewery shop, including checking counts, till programming and error checking
- Purchase management, setting up accounts, acting in good time to secure continuity of supply and achieving the best prices.
- Arranging MOT’s, services and fuel cards for our 7 vans
- Assisting the Finance Controller with general admin and duties – handling queries, responding to emails, maintaining filing systems etc.
- Payroll experience would be helpful
- We’re a small team, so a willingness to pitch in with different areas to support the business where needed is absolutely essential
We’re looking for someone who’s available for 25 hours per week – this must include Mondays. The remaining hours will be agreed with the successful candidate. We can offer flexibility in return and are advocates of promoting a healthy work life balance. We are happy to look to work around school hours or any carer commitments you may have. The successful candidate will receive full training on our systems and processes.
We are an employee owned company, so working with us means you will have a real say in how the business is run and play a meaningful part in its future. We are accommodating and supportive employers who take great pride in training and developing our team. We were named Employer of the Year at the 2025 SIBA Business Awards too!
