University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us.
Job Title: Finance Assistant (Apprentice) - Subsidiaries
Contract Type: Fixed-term
Fixed Term Contract End Date: 22 months
Purpose for Fixed Term: Apprenticeship
Under current Home Office rules, this role is not eligible for Skilled Worker visa sponsorship.
Please be advised that this vacancy may close earlier than stated if we receive a large number of applications.
Main duties of the job
Are you looking for an exciting opportunity to start and develop a rewarding career in finance within the NHS? We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic Finance Assistant Apprentice to join our Subsidiary Finance Team, supporting a diverse range of healthcare subsidiary companies within a £1bn+ NHS Foundation Trust.
This apprenticeship offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience within a professional finance environment while working towards an AAT Level 3 Apprenticeship qualification. You will develop practical accounting and finance skills through a combination of formal study and workplace training, supported by experienced finance professionals.
Working as part of our 100-strong Finance Team, you will contribute to the delivery of accurate and timely financial information and support services. You will gain experience across a wide range of finance activities, including processing journals, investigating invoice and payment queries, supporting monthly financial reporting, maintaining financial records, raising invoices and requisitions, updating financial systems and spreadsheets, and assisting with financial analysis and reconciliations.
About us
As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated 'Good' by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

Throughout your apprenticeship, you will be supported to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed for a future career in NHS finance whilst contributing to the continued success of our subsidiary businesses.
As a Finance Assistant Apprentice, you will support the Subsidiary Finance Team in delivering a high-quality finance service across our subsidiary companies. You will gain hands-on experience in a wide range of financial activities, including supporting month-end processes, processing journals, managing supplier payments, raising invoices, investigating financial queries, maintaining financial records, and assisting with the production of management information. This role offers genuine variety and the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of how finance supports the wider organisation and its operational services.
Alongside your practical experience, you will undertake a Level 3 Finance Apprenticeship, studying towards the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) Level 3 qualification.
